• Notes

  "He migrated with his family in May, 1758 to the town of Western, now Warren, Worcester County, Mass. Their unexpected arrival was the cause of a 'Warning' that was thereupon set by the town of Western to that of Palmer whence this alarming tribe had come. But Isaac evidently quieted the fears of his prospective neighbors at Western for the records show that he remained there with a growing family for many years." [James W. Greene, citation details below.]
