MARY, b. about 1635, first English child born in Newbury. d. Newbury 15 April 1716; m. Newbury 13 May 1656 Peter Godfrey.

ISAAC, b. abt 1638 (d. Newbury 13 May 1674), m. 22 August 1661 Rebecca Bailey, who m. 2) Newbury 22 June 1697 John Doggett of Marshfield.

(Probably) NICHOLAS, b. say 1645; m. Haverhill 27 January 1669 Mary Linforth.
