and Sarah from London 1652, to be sold at Boston, part of the gleanings
of the field of carnage at Worcester of 3 Sept. preced. is one Alexander,
wh. may be this man; but it seems to me very unlikely. None of that cargo
would be kindly rec. here as they had been smitten by the wrath of
Heaven in the odious cause of Charles II.; and tho. some may think, that
of these young men it might be large sacrifice to take, at the lowest
comput. three quarters in five yrs. yet I believe that a larger
proportion than that fell victims to the heartless policy. See the end of
this paragr. under Thomas. BENJAMIN, New London, a. 1664, mariner,
perhaps s. of Christopher, m. a d. of Matthew Beckwith, rem. to Lyme, and
d. a. 1670, leav. ch. But Bond gives BENJAMIN s. of Christopher, to be of
Watertown 1694, a weaver, with w. Priscilla, so that, in my opinion, one
man only must be count. Benjamin, wh. was of Cambridge, says Caulkins, in
1693. CALEB, Watertown, a mason, by w. Mary, wh. d. 1 Feb. 1684, had Caleb;
Sarah, b. 1671, d. soon; Joseph, 3 Apr. 1681, d. soon; Mary; and Abigail, 2
Jan. 1684; and he d. 5 Nov. 1694. CHRISTOPHER, Watertown 1634, by w. Mary
had Abigail, b. 6 Feb. 1635. Joshua, 11 June 1637; Caleb, 8 Feb. 1640; and
Benjamin, 6 Sept. 1641; and by w. Sarah had Sarah, 1 Feb. 1643; Joseph, 27
Sept. 1646; Mary, or Mercy, or both; and Christopher, 1649; but it is
observable, that Bond takes note of only one wife. He d. 6 Sept. 1685;
employ. in sett. the glass in the first edifice erect. for Harv. Coll.
Abigail m. Roger Rose; Sarah m. 23 Feb. 1666, Samuel Seaverns; Mary m. 27
Feb. 1668, Daniel Smith; and much puzzle may be seen as to m. of Mercy
with Samuel Daniel, or Daniels, in Bond, 197, 260, and 776. EDWARD, Boston
1658, shipwright, m. Sarah, d. of William Ward, or Weare, had Experience, b.
26 Dec. 1658; and Joseph, 15 Feb. 1661; freem. 1672, d. 1682, leav. wid.
Sarah, and s. Joseph only. An inscript. ridicul. false, purporting to be on
his gr.stone in the N. bur. ground in B. as if he d. 12 June 1630, bef. the
arr. of any exc. Blaxton, on this peninsula, giv. at p. 29 of the
Dorchester Saxton's Memo. imposed on the severe judgment of Farmer.
Many false impres. can be obt. from gr.stones, thoughtless. changed, as
often they are by idle sch.boys, as one of them, sixty-seven yrs. ago,
did, in sev. instances at that bur. ground. by his acknowledm. to me.
JAMES, Boston 1657, one of the found. of the Scot's Charit. Soc. that yr.
JAMES, Charlestown 1658, may have been of Dover 1657, of York 1674, and
of other town later, nothing, being, kn. at either place about him exc.
that at York one of the name took. o. of alleg. 22 Mar. 1681. JAMES, Dedham
