Frederick Freeman, The History of Cape Cod, vol. 2 (1862)

“Annals of Sandwich,” quoting the Sandwich town records (whales, the mill, the King Philip’s War garrison, the 1705 Mashpee line, Fessenden’s 1730 list of heads of families). Also prints Rev. Benjamin Fessenden’s c. 1722 account of Edmund Freeman and the Quakers (2:56-57n), and Gideon Hawley’s 1794 recollection of Thomas Tupper (2:70n).

For Wellfleet: Elisha Holbrook’s contract of 1765 “to provide all the bricks, lime and other materials, to underpin and pave round the house, for £16,” when the meeting house was enlarged with a porch and steeple (2:662); and a note on the Holbrooks at the North Precinct (2:678n).

Further Sandwich entries used for the Freeman-Ellis families: the whale agreement of 13 Sept 1653 with Chadwell, Dexter and Lt. John Ellis (£16 a whale, a third each in oil, corn and cattle); the mill and “the account of Lt. Ellis for drum, muskets &c. purchased” (c. 1655-57); the meetinghouse accounts, “Pd. Benj. Nye and Thos. Tobey, for the frame, £12”; the 1644 pledges of corn to Thomas Tupper “for as many bolts as would shingle the old meeting-house”; the town meeting of 28 Feb 1675/6 “called … by Lt. John Ellis and Benj. Hammond the constable” and the watch “beyond Lt. John Ellis’ land”; the agents of the “South-sea Indians of Mashbe” in 1705 (Caleb Popmit, Acapesko, Old John, Sunkation and Caleb Pognit); and the list of Quaker sufferings at Sandwich, Edward Perry’s £89 18s the largest (2:61-62).
