• Notes

  He first appears in Yarmouth records, 28 Oct 1645, as one of five soldiers from Yarmouth who were on an expedition against the "Narrohiggansets." As Jeff Martin points out, he was not on a 1643 list of Yarmouth men able to bear arms, so either he was somewhere else in 1643 or was under age 16. The story of his alternating enmity and friendship with Richard Berry, is told at our entry for Berry. His death date is unknown, but bracketed by his last two appearances in the record: a mention in the inventory of James Claghorn on 21 Jul 1683, and a reference to him as "deceased" in a deed by Michael Stewart on 12 Oct 1702.
