- JOHN, Windsor 1640, but is not kn. to have ever been at Dorchester, was in esteem 1644, and no later is any ment. found, so that he may have had w. and ch. and rem. to some uncert. place. A Rhoda T. at W. 1659, had seat in the meeting ho. and may be thot. his wid. or ch. An Amos T. d. at Windsor, 1644; and Hannah d. there 1650, wh. may have been his ch. or possib. of Stephen.

- JOHN, Damariscove 1651, by Sullivan, 287, is found there in 1665.
- JOHN, Weymouth, prob. s. of John of the same, by w. Phebe, I presume d. of the wid. Ann Rockwood, had Mary, b. 18 May 1660; John, 10 Apr. 1666; and perhaps rem. to Braintree.

- PHILIP, freem. of Mass. 18 May 1642 may have been br. of Richard, wh. in the list stands next bef. him, but I am not able to say more, than that he was of ano. ch. than that of Boston.
- RICHARD, Boston, br. perhaps of the preced. join. our ch. 1 Jan. 1642, then “a single man and a tailor,” was adm. freem. 18 May foll. by w. Mary had John, b. 2, bapt. 6 Feb. 1647; d. 1673. His will of 30 July, pro. 2 Aug. of that yr. [p.263] names no ch. but John, sis. Joan in Eng. and w. Eliz.
- RICHARD, Charlestown, but a mem. of some other ch. when adm. freem. 18 May 1642, the same day with Boston Richard, d. 10 July 1659, of wh. I learn nothing but from his will, made 6 May bef. that his w. was Ann, and he had d. Frances Adams.

No w. or ch. is heard of, when at the age of 81 his will was pro. 29 June 1695, in wh. his ho. and ld. are devis. to Samuel Treadwell, perhaps a cous. as he calls Thomas, and Nathaniel Treadwell, Thomas, and Seaborn Wilson, Mary Gaines, Esther Hovey, and Martha Cross.
- SAMUEL, Windsor, had, as Parsons in Geneal. Reg. V. 365, quotes rec. d. Martha, wh. at the age of 20, m. 30 Oct. 1679, Josiah Ellsworth. But this is a sad mistake of Taylor for Gaylord.
- SAMUEL, Springfield, wh. sw. alleg. there 31 Dec. 1678, or next day, may be s. of Stephen of Windsor, was a blacksmith at Westfield, by w. Mary had a ch. b. 3 May 1672, d. in few days; Mary, 14 Dec. 1673, d. young; Mary, again, 1675, d. young; Samuel, 1677, d. young; a s. 30 Sept. 1679, d. in few wks.; Joseph, 1 May 1681, d. young; Eliz. 10 Mar. 1683, d. soon; Eliz. again, 27 July 1684;[p.264] Mary, again, 3 Mar. 1687; Sarah, 8 Oct. 1689; Hannah, 25 Aug. 1692; and Joseph, again, 4 Mar. 1694; beside a d. Mercy, in his will of 1723, nam. as dec. leav. ch. Mercy and Mabel Buck. This list varies slightly from that in Geneal. Reg. VI. 266, but seems to me of authori. His will names only s. Joseph, ds.

- SEABRED, Reading, s. of Thomas of Watertown, m. 22 Nov. 1671, Mary, d. of Richard Harrington, was freem. 1677, against wh. I hardly suppose that Farmer design. any imput. when he calls him Sinbred.

William, had Stephen, b. 11 Mar. 1644; Samuel, 8 Oct. 1647; and by sec. w. m. 25 Oct. 1649, Eliz.

- STEPHEN, Hadley, m. at Hartford, Sarah, d. of John White, had only ch. Stephen, and d. 7 Sept. 1665. His wid. m. 15 Oct. 1666, Barnabas Hinsdale, wh. was k. by the Ind. 18 Sept. 1675; and she had third h. Feb. 1679, Walter Hickson. He may have been s. of John of Hartford, but whence he came, is uncert.
- STEPHEN, Boston, by w. Hannah had Hannah, b. 2 July 1668.
- STEPHEN, Suffield, s. of the first Stephen, m. 8 Nov. 1676, Joanna Porter of Farmington, prob. d. of Thomas, had Sarah, b. 16 July 1679; Joanna, 28 Mar. 1682; rem. to Windsor, had there Stephen, 9 May 1685; Stephen, again, 8 May 1688; William, 14 Mar. 1689; and perhaps others, and d. 3 Aug. 1707.

The f. of his first w. in leav. her a legacy by his will, declar. that “Thomas Taylor shall have nothing to do with it, ” and that was caus. by his ill conduct.

- WILLIAM, Boston, merch. by w. Rebecca had Eliz. b. 17 May 1667; and Thomas, 18 Feb. 1674; was much disting. for active enterpr. but fell into melancholy, and d. by his own hd. 12 July 1682. See Russell's Diary in Geneal. Reg. VII. 53 and Bradstreet's in Ib. VIII. 332 or IX. 50.
