Unknown-42378 and Blake-890 appear to represent the same person because: (1) VC Sanborn (1899), 94, reports Enoch^3 Sanborn (John^2, John^1) in numbered entry 17. "
born in Hampton 1685. Lived in Hampton Falls; owned a mill there in 1750. In 1707, when with Captain Chesley's expedition to Port Royal. Married (1) in 1709, Elizabeth Dennett, daughter of Alexander of Portsmouth; (2) April 1, 1736, Mehitabel (Blake) Godfrey, daughter of John Blake of Hampton and widow of Jonathan Godfrey." Enoch was the father of nine children. (2) Hampton VR contains notice of the marriage between Mehitable Blake to Jonathan Godfrey; reports his death and has her remarriage to Enoch Sanborn.
