others earlier. JAMES, Norwalk 1687, eldest s. of Robert, was ens. in
1713. JAMES, Newbury, s. of Duncan, by w. Elizabeth had James, b. 29

JOHN, Newbury, perhaps s. of Alexander, by w. Elizabeth had Elizabeth b. 11

JOHN, Norwalk 1708, s. of Robert JOSEPH, Salisbury, by w.
Mary had Joseph, b. 19 Dec. 1667. RICHARD, by Farmer is ment. as

crowning mercy, sent to Boston, where they arr. 13 May 1652, to
be sold, but not to perpet. servit. as John Cotton gently suggests to
