  • Notes 
    • One source lists birthplace as England, another lists it as Scotland.

      Immigrated in 1634 to Massachusetts. Other sources say 1639 or 1644.

      Public tree lists death location as Lynnfield, England. But the New Hampshire genealogy book suggests it was in Lynnfield, Massachusetts.
