"Ancestral Roots of Sixty Colonists, etc" by Frederick Lewis Weiss 6th ed., pg.97 Name: Enoch Lynde Sex: M Birth: 1590 in Netherlands Death: 23 APR 1636 in Note: He was a shipping merchant in the Netherlands. A Capt. "Lyrado (perhaps a misreading of Lynde) left to Matthew Beckwith a legacy of mentionable value, it is therefore possible that the legatee was the testator's son-in-law. The earliest Lynde's were from Boston and later of Saybrook. Frederick Weiss has Enoch Lynde as dying in England, however the family was already in America in 1637 (the date of Elizabeth's marriage to Matthew Beckwith). Perhaps Elizabeth came to America with her brother Judge Simon Lynde, whose family was in Saybrook by the mid 1600's.
