• Notes

  John was born in Watertown, MA. According to the Suffolk Co. Deeds Book 1, pg. 78, William and Anne Page took John, son of George Parkhurst, Jr., to bring up. John would have been 2 years old. John is on the "returns" (a list of men eligible for military service) during King Philip's War in 1675. He apparently served in this war, because his son, John, received a land grant for his father's service. He was chosen hogreeve (appraiser of damages from stray swine), and also served as a selectman in 1694 and 95.
