Under Hubbard (I:356 n.): "Henry Wheeler of S. deeded house and land in S. to Richard Hubbard, 1684. Richard Hubbard of Boston deeded property in S. to Abigail Wheeler of Boston, wid. of Henry Wheeler" (the year cannot be read in the OCR). Hubbard married Abigail's sister Martha Allen.

His twelve children were born 1639/40-1658/9, Abigail (Jan. 4, 1639/40, m. about 1659 Henry Wheeler) the eldest; Martha (1646) married Richard Hubbard.

Blodgett and Mary his wife), 'John Elenwood and Ralph Elenwood and Martha his wife,' are given as children of Thomas Rowlandson."

Turner, April, 1676" and "A Richard Allin, of Hv. [Haverhill], served in King Philip's War, under Lieut. Benj. Swett, June, 1676" (1:31-32), neither identified as Allen's son by Hoyt himself; and Thomas Rowlandson Jr., "killed by Indians in the attack upon his uncle's house in Lancaster, Feb. 1675-6" (1:307, above), "Thomas Rowlandson, aged 19" in the list of the killed (Bodge, p. 353).
