Notes:

Deacon Jonas Humphrey, son of Jonas and Frances Humphrey, was born in Wendover, England, about the year 1620, as in 1688 he called himself sixty-eight years old. He came to New England with his father in 1637, was located in Dorchester for a few years and then settled in Weymouth, Massachusetts. It seems, however, that he must have maintained a place of residence in each town, for he held office in Weymouth in 1648, while his two eldest children were born in Dorchester at later dates. lle settled permanently in Weymouth in 1653-54, and lived in the north part of the town, at the place called 'old south farm,' and the old homestead on Neck street was kept in the family for nearly two hundred years afterwards. He was a leading man in Weymouth, where he was made freeman in 1653, and held the office of selectman many years, a part of the time being chairman of the board. For many years also he was deacon in the church. He died February
