GENEALOGICAL NOTES OF BARNSTABLE FAMILIES. 373<br />

Joseph Williams, son <strong>of</strong> John <strong>of</strong> Haverhill. He was born<br />

April 18, 1647, had Sarah 17th Nov. 1675; Marv, 29th<br />

Nov. 1677; John, 17th Feb. 1680; Hannah, 30th Sept.<br />

1683.<br />

7. VI. Thomas born, says the town record, May 18, 1650,<br />

probably ou the day <strong>of</strong> his baptism. May 18, 1651. He is<br />

not named in his father's will, and perhaps died young.<br />

8. VII. Sarah, born Dec. 14, 1654, married —-—— Crow.<br />

9. VIII. John, called Little John, or John, Jr., to distinguish<br />

him from John, son <strong>of</strong> Capt. Matthew.<br />

10. IX. A child, Feb. 8, 1658, died 15 days after.<br />

Gov. Bradford in his history states that in 1650 Samuel Fuller<br />

had four or more children. He had Hannah, Samuel, Eliza-<br />

beth, and Mary, four; if Thomas was born in 1660, five. In his<br />

will dated 29th Oct. 1683, he names oldest son Samuel, son John,<br />

daughters Elizabeth Taylor, Hannah Bonham, Mary Williams,<br />

and Sarah Crow, two sons and four daughters then living. He<br />

died Oct. 31, 1683, and was one <strong>of</strong> the last survivors <strong>of</strong> those<br />

who came over in the Mayflower. His wife not being named in<br />

his will had probably died previously.<br />

3. Samuel Fuller, son <strong>of</strong> Samuel, born Feb. 1637-8, married<br />

Anna, daughter <strong>of</strong> Capt. Matthew Fuller. There is no<br />

record <strong>of</strong> his family on the <strong>Barnstable</strong> records. An inventory <strong>of</strong><br />

his estate was taken at his house in <strong>Barnstable</strong> Dec. 29, 1691. It<br />

appears that he had then been dead some little time, and that his<br />

widow had then recently deceased, and her estate was settled by<br />

mutual agreement on the 30th <strong>of</strong> the same month. All the heirs<br />

sign with their mark, showing that they had received no benefit<br />

from the schools established in the distant parts <strong>of</strong> the town. It<br />

is presumed that they were then all <strong>of</strong> legal age. The names occur<br />

in the following order on the agreement.<br />

11. I. Matthew, married Patience Young 25th Feb. 1692-3.<br />

12. II. Barnabas, married Elizabeth Young 25th Feb.<br />

1680-1.<br />

13. III. Joseph, married Thankful Blossom.<br />

14. IV. Benjamin.<br />

15. V. Desire.<br />

16. VI. Sarah.<br />

9. John Fuller, born about the year 1655, was the youngest<br />

son <strong>of</strong> Samuel, Sen'r. He resided on the paternal estate at Scorton<br />

till 1689, when he removed, with several other <strong>families</strong> from<br />

that vicinity, to East Haddam, Conn. On the 30th <strong>of</strong> October,<br />

1688, "Mehitabel, the wife <strong>of</strong> Little John Fuller," was admitted<br />

to the <strong>Barnstable</strong> Church, and her sons Samuel, Thomas and<br />

Shubael, were baptized, and on the 19th <strong>of</strong> May, 1689, her<br />

daughter Thankful was baptized. Here occurs a gap in the fam-<br />

EREATA. In Ewer family. The late Isaac Ewer, <strong>of</strong> OstervlUe, was son <strong>of</strong> Setli.<br />

Kicliard Churrli at Charlestomi 16B3, died 1668.
