Individual Details

The author of The Hoskins Family claimed that "perhaps" this was his date of birth and gives it as Nov 30, 1747 - obviously this is a typo and maybe was supposed to be 1647 and in fact it was 1645 on the first page of narrative. Apparently his birth was recorded, but not his name and tradition holds that the William who married Sarah Caswell was a son of William of Plymouth.

William married 3 Jul 1677, Sarah Caswell of Taunton.
