I adopted this profile and need help with clarifying the parents and children of a James Barrett. A message by a guest member has relevant info we need help verifying with proper sources. Especially the son John Barrett 2nd born. 

Message is as follows:

 James (2), son of James (1) Barrett, was born at Charlestown, April 6, 1644, and died before 1679, when his estate was divided. He was a carpenter by trade, residing in Malden. He married Jaunary 11, 1671-2, Dorcas Green. He was in Captain Hutchinson's company in King Philip's war in 1675, and in Lieutenant Hasey's company of the three county troop in the same year. Dorcas Green was a daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Green. Dorcas, widow of James, died before 1682, when the inventory of her estate was filed. Children, born at Malden: James, 1672, lived at Malden, had one son John; John, 1675, left no sons; Jonathan born at Malden in 1678.”

Any help with this pre-1700 profile is appreciated 

Thank you wikitree family
