Research Notes

In merging Stockwell-673 into this profile, and given that none of the quoted sources are sufficiently explicit, quoted verbatim, or available, the places of birth and death have been consolidated on the following basis:

• Birth - at Deerfield, Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay. Deerfield, Franklin County, Massachusetts, per Stockwell-521, was not created until 1811. Stockwell-673 previously recorded place of birth as being Hatfield, Connecticut but marked as uncertain and no such location in 1676 was easily identifiable.
• Death - at West Springfield, Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay per Stockwell-673. I understand that Hampden County, per Stockwell-521, was not founded until 1810 so that could not possibly be correct in 1755.
