Notes

Listed as a church member 10 Mar 1703: "Joanna Morton, The wife of Deacon George Morton" [Plymouth Church Recs, Pub.Col.Soc.Mass 22:193] Listed as a church member on a list dated 29 July 1724 as "Johanna the wife of Deacon Morton" [PCR 1:4:3, ibid 22;227]. !Birth: Savage 3:8 & NEHGR 59(1903):82 "Vital Records of Scituate, Massachusetts, to the year 1850" 1:210 (29 Sep 1647). NEHGR 1:210 gives convincing evidence that this is wrong -- so it was probably 1645 on this date. !Baptism: NEHGR 148:342 & Scituate Vital Records 1:49 (9 Nov 1645) !Death: Tombstone, Burial Hill, Plymouth "in ye 83d year of her age" [NEHGR 148:343]
