ch. or gr. ch. were slain by the French and Ind. 29 Feb. 1704. The
first ch. William, b. prob. at D. was k. 18 Sept. 1675, with the flower of
Essex under Capt. Lothrop at Bloody Brook; but Samuel, John, and
Ebenezer had fams. at D. and the name has been well perpet.

    SMEDLEY, SMEADLY or SMEEDLY, BAPTIST, or BAPTIZE, as the Col.
Rec. gives it, Concord 1639, freem. 1644, had Samuel, b. 1646; Mary;

ABRAHAM, Watertown 1660, was aft. of Charlestown, and join.
the ch. 6 Jan. 1667, as did his w. Martha, 3 Apr. 1670, there had bapt.
