Notes:

Name:
Henry Farwell was born to William Farwell and his first wife. He was one of at least five children they had together.

Henry Farwell married Olive Welby on April 16, 1629 at St. Botolph's Church in Boston, Lincolnshire, England. (My son's wife has ancestor's who were married there as well.) Henry and Olive had six children together, three having been born in England and three in Massachusetts.

Henry emigrated from England with his wife and two children before July 1636.

Sometime after July 5, 1636 The Concord Church, of which Henry was a member, was organized by a council which met at Cambridge, July 5th, 1636. The Rev. Peter Bulkeley was ordained Pastor. Henry remained an active member for in 1660 as a Deacon, he was in "charge of the linen and pewter". (Another source lists him as a tailor. Perhaps this is why he was put in charge of the church linens.)

Henry took the Oath of Allegiance in Concord, Massachusetts on March 14, 1639, but moved from there to Chelmsford about six years later.

"His house in Chelmsford was situated on the Billerica road..." "on the same side..as Abraham Parker and Jacob Parker. His home was nearer the village than theirs."

At some point Henry received land grants from both Concord and Chelmsford, but I don't have the dates for those.

Sometime after 1655 Henry signed a petition "to trade with the Indians".

In 1659 he received £3 5s from the town of Chelmsford "for the paiment for A drum..." My question is, "Was this a drum he'd gotten from the Indians or a drum he built?"

Henry wrote his will twenty days before his death.
