Notes:

Excerpt from Certain Comeoverers: He was born in 1711. In 1734 he married Sarah Clark, the daughter of a neighbor. In 1739 his father Peter conveyed to him twenty acres "by the orchard of Joseph Ashley" near Peter's Sniptuit holdings. It was here perhaps that he lived. In 1743 his father deeded to him additional land. In 1744 he purchased a large tract in the "gore." The consideration was L150. He is described in this deed as a "husbandman". I am of the impression that I somewhere found him described as a "blacksmith, " but I am unable to verify the statement. In 1762 he and his brothers, Peter and Hezekiah, made a partition of the land which they received as residuary legatees under their father's will, and to John was given the land which the first Peter purchased of Ebenezer Lewis not far from the Pond. There are several other records of land transfers to and from him. He was living as late as 1779 when he conveyed most of his lands to his son John, junior, having doubtless given his other sons their shares by helping them establish the lumber business in Freetown. His son Peter, of whom more anon, was the father of Jesse Crapo.

John married Sarah CLARK on 07 Nov 1734 in Rochester, Plymouth, Massachusetts. Sarah (daughter of John CLARK and Mary TOBEY) was born on 18 Mar 1714 in Rochester, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA; died on 24 Dec 1776 in Rochester, Plymouth Co., Massachusetts; was buried in First Parish Cemetery, Rochester, Plymouth Co, Massachusetts.

Charles married Deborah WILLIAMSON on 17 Nov 1737 in Middleboro, Plymouth, Massachusetts. Deborah (daughter of George WILLIAMSON and Mary CRISP) was born on 17 Apr 1713 in Duxbury, Plymouth, Massachusetts; died in 1790 in Wilmington, Windham, Vermont. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
