Notes |
- One of the original purchasers of the Rehoboth North Purchase (later Attleboro, Bristol Co., MA). He and his son John were engaged in King Philip's War of 1675-76 (ending 1678 in Maine) - the chief sachem of the Wampanoag tribe, Metacom (called 'King Philip' by the English), was headquartered on Mount Hope, Narragansett Bay, not far from Rehoboth. John is frequently listed as having a first wife named Rachel, and the first four children are hers. Ref. 50 states that Abigail Carpenter was John's only wife and mother of all eight children. Son John's 1697 will names Abigail (then Palmer) as his mother, and an additional clue may be in that John senior's first daughter was named Abigail and not Rachel. Perhaps John died in 1689 rather than 1690 (double date issue). Bristol Co MA Probate Records list will dated 21 Feb 1688/89, probated 20 Nov 1689.
