  • Notes 
    • (Research):John "was the only son of his father who settled in Plymouth. He received a share of the patrimonial estate; beside, he was granted by the town, January 8, 1665, three acres of meadow at Turkey swamp; January 31, 1668, thirty acres at Island pond; in 1694 was given a piece of the 'gurnet,' a headland on the coast near Plymouth; and again in 1701 a valuable lot of ground. His mother signed off to him all of her right and title to her late husband's land in Plymouth. His name appears on the court records in several matters. In July, 1699, John Dunham complained that he beat him in the highway. He had the pugnacity of his combative father. In 1676 he and Jacob Cooke had a dispute in court over some marshland. In 1681 he entered suit against Nathan Southworth for breach of contract. He was a juryman in 1675-6-9, and 1680-3-4. In 1671 he was highway surveyor, and again in 1675, and in 1680 was constable. His will was executed April 15, 1701, and probated in June that year. His descendants still reside in Plymouth, among whom are preserved heirlooms and traditions of the family."40 <../rr_src/src001.html>
