[171] Perhaps the same as _Preson_, or _Presson_. He is the _Pressie_ of Savage, no doubt, who says his Wife was Mary Gage, whom he married 30th Nov., 1665. I do not find among the Gages of Rowley or elsewhere, a Daughter married to a Pressie. John _Pressie_ was of Amesbury, 1677.--_N. E. H. G. Reg._, vi, 202. [172] Savage calls him _Jarvis_ and has given him Wife, Hannah Fowler, 24th Dec., 1685; Son Jarvis, born 2d Oct., 1686; Daughters, Hannah, born 3d March, 1689, Elizabeth, 3d Sept., 1692, and Son Oliver, born 17th June, 1698. This was a Salisbury Family. The _Joseph_ Ring, mentioned in the next Section, was perhaps that Joseph born the 3d of August, 1664 (at Salisbury), Son of Robert. Instead of this Robert _Ring_ having come over in the Ship Bevis, in 1638, it does not appear that any Person of the Name of Ring came at that Time in that Ship. Mr. Savage "strangely" says Robert Ring came over in the Bevis of Northampton, and stranger still there is no Robert _Ring_ on _his own_ List of Passengers. For Robert _Knight_ he copied (or some one for him), Robert _Ringht!_ Being unwilling to admit a new Name into his Dictionary, he has committed a more serious Blunder. Mr. Lawson says he was present when Ring gave his Testimony, and fully corroborates our Author's Statement.--_Lawson_, 113. [173] She belonged to Topsfield. There was an Ephraim Howe in that Town, possibly her Husband. Her Husband had a Brother, as will be seen, named John, but his Residence is not given. [174] This Name is erroneously printed _Stafford_ in the London Edition. It was an Ipswich Family, of which many Items of its Members will be found in Dr. Phelps's _Hist. of that Town_, and a few in Savage's _Dict._ [175] This Individual can be identified and traced in the Abbot _Genealogical Register_, and also in Savage's _Dictionary;_ but more minute Information is given by his Kinsman, Abiel Abbot, A. M., in his _History of Andover_, Chap. x.; a valuable little Work by the Way, without either Heads of Chapters or Index. [176] Probably of Topsfield. [177] Of Ipswich, supposed to be Son of that Allen _Perley_, who in 1635, came to New England from Hertfordshire. See _Founders of New England_, 16. John _Pearly_, mentioned in the next Section was no Doubt of the same Family. [178] To what Family this Francis Lane belonged I have not been able to determine. Perhaps he belonged to the Hampton Family. [179] She was of Andover, and the Copy of her Indictment is printed in full, in the History of that Town. She was the Wife of Thomas Carrier of Andover, who died in Colchester, Ct., aged 109 Years. See Farmer, _Hist. Billerica_, 33. See also Calef, _More Wonders_, 136. [180] See _Hist. Andover_, 30, 168. He was Son of the first George Abbot of Andover, and died in 1703, leaving Descendants. His Wife Sarah, mentioned onward, was Daughter of Ralph _Farnum_ or _Varnum_ of Andover. Further of this in an ensuing Volume. [181] Perhaps _Peter_, who lived in what is since Danvers.
