• Notes

  From his Find a Grave page (citation details below): "Michael was a yeoman, and followed the trade of cooper for a time. He was an original member of the Wrentham church, and was one of five members to apprehend David Pond for his conduct in pitching the music too high during the church service of Feb. 18, 1738/39. He was chosen with Jonathan Wright as a ruling elder March 8, 1738/39."
