- BIRTH: Braintree vital recs, "Records of Boston," NEHGR, 3(1849):127 (FHL #974 B2ne).
MAR: No mar rec found. Sarah, John, Thomas, and Mehitable Meakins, all proved children of Thomas and Mary Meakins of Hatfield, are called grandchildren in the will of Sarah Bunce of Hartford, 19 Aug 1689, no probate act (died 1693), Hartford District Probate, abstracted in Charles W. Manwaring, ed, DIGEST OF THE EARLY CONNECTICUT PROBATE RECORDS, 3 vols. (Hartford, 1904-1906), 1:416 (FHL #974.6 P2m). For children of Thomas and Mary Meakins, see "Births, Marriages, and Deaths, [Hampshire] County Court," entries for Hatfield, 105, and Hadley, 70 (FHL #760648).
DEATH: "A List of the men slain in the County of Hampshire,"Massachusetts Archives, 68:33, photocopy of original document in Winifred L. Holman, "The Meakins Lineage" (typescript, 1958-60; NEHGS, Boston), 16a.
