[309] It has been stated that both of the brothers were killed, but this is a mistake.
[464] Maturin is said (p. 309,) to have been unmarried when killed, but from Dover land records it appears that a Joseph was "son to Maturin Ricker," -- that this Joseph married Elizabeth Garland, 16 Nov. 1720, and had chil. -- John, b. 28 Aug. 1721; Sarah, b. 3 Feb. 1723-4. This Joseph must be, I think, the one whom your correspondent calls a brother to Maturin and George; at any rate there is no other Joseph to be found at that period.
