    Notes 
    • Excerpt from :Rev. John Eliot's Record of church Members": This winter we had a gracious p'vidence of God befell two brothers Edward & George Dennison, who had been proude incendiarys of some trobls among us, & full of distemp', and disaffection. but the Lord left them to open and shamefull drunkennesse at Boston: espec'.edward. We did so greatly huble them both y though George (being a membr) was excomvnicated, yet in a short time was taken in againe. And Edward humbling himselfe so effectually yt he was also speedyly received in to the Church, this is the tryvumph of grace, to magnify grace by sinne.

      Excerpts from Major-General Daniel Denison: Edward, one of the brothers of Gen. Denison, made Roxbury his residence, and there married Eliza, daughter of Joseph Weld. As we have seen he was "disarmed" in 1637. He was representative in 1652 and 1655. He had a large family, one of the sons, William, graduating at Harvard College in 1681. He died April 26, 1668, and his wife in 1717".
