    Name:
    An ancient note book kept by nathaniel hammond, Jr., is still in existence and is no (1902) in possession of a descendant, Mr. George Warren hammond, of yarmouthville, Me. it contains many valuable records relating to early Newton families and is relied upon to prove, without a question of doubt, who his mother really was. So much doubt has been entertained on this point in the past that the author has taken pains to copy a few entries from this very interesting and ancient book. the following are among the earlier entries and may be taken to prove the connection conclusively. Under date of Feb. 23, 1711-12, the entry is as follows:
