• Notes

  Said to have been born 24 Sep 1816. He was a blacksmith. His Boston address at death was 6 Oliver Place. The latter-day typed copy of his Boston marriage record gives the date as 5 July, an earlier handwritten register (obviously copied from earlier records, as the entries are not in chronological order) says 15 July, and what appears to be the original handwritten record says 15 May.
