Notes

Birth

In 1727, when he had become "a sojourner at Portsmouth," he gave his age, in testimony, as ninety and upward. But this would give the date of his birth as 1637, before his mother was left by her first husband. Consequently it must be an error, and accounts for the family traditions of the great age attained by these men.
