Jedediah Strong, had Thomas, b. at Northampton, 3 Dec. 1684, d.
young; Abigail, 1687; and Mary, 1691, both at Hatfield; beside

Salem, came from London in the Abigail, 1635, aged 28, freem.
25 May 1636, wh. is inconsist. in trifling degree with Felt, wh. says he

on 25 Dec. 1636; John, 1 Nov. 1638; and Deliverance, 31 Oct. 1641.
In his case, we find not the w. in the valua. list of ch. mem. as was
commonly the much more natural occurr. but he seems to have been the
superior polemic, if not devotee; as, in the antinom. perversity of 1637,
he was one of the five men in S. requir. to be disarm. for the public

Christian kindness to the Quakers expos. him to whip. and banishm.
From the latter he was restor. on repent. 1661. WILLIAM, Isle of
Shoals, d. 28 May 1664, leav. William. WILLIAM, Boston, wh. by w.

Elizabeth 15 June 1707. He d. 20 Sept. 1728; and his wid. d. 27 May
1746, aged 80. Of the gr. fam. of Kings at N. a hundred and fifty yrs.
since, near all are extinct. A Winifred K. was m. at Boston, 15 Jan.
1657, to Joseph Benham of New Haven, but her f. is not kn. Seven
of this name, Farmer saw, had, in 1829, been gr. at Harv. and twentytwo
