| Notes |
and his family remained in Hingham until about 1650, when he purchased, with others, large tracts of land at Cambridge Hill, now Newton, near the line which divides Brookline and Newton. While living in Hingham, he was received as freeman on 9 March 1636/7. Before 1656, he had moved and was living in Kittery, Maine and thereafter he received several grants of land from that town. Nicholas first appears on record at Kittery, ME in 1655 for being absent from meeting. In 1659 he and others, among which were our ancestors Anthony Emery and Richard Nason, were ordered to Boston for entertaining Quakers. Nicholas pleaded not guilty but it was ordered that he be admonished by the Governor.
Nicholas deeded his homestead at Kittery to his son, Benoni, in 1678 for support of himself and wife, except 7 acres whereon his son-in-law, John Morrell, was then living. In 1679, he deeded 40 acres of land to his son, Timothy.
