    Notes 
    • CHR: W. G. Cruft, ed, "The Bishops' Transcripts of Great Missenden" (typescript, 1923-24), 16 (FHL #088593).
      MAR #1: No mar rec found. "Mary the wife of Obadiah Hawes" died at Dorchester, 21 Apr 1676 (DORCHESTER BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS, 21st Report Boston Record Commissioners [Boston, 1890], 28 [FHL #974.46/D1 V2r]). The will of James Humphrey of Dorchester, 16 Dec 1685, proved 20 Apr 1724, gave to his son-in-law Obadiah Hawes and his children (Suffolk Co. Probate, #4893, [o.s.] 23:202 [FHL #584136]). In this case "son-in-law" must be taken literally, rather than the oft-used meaning for step-son. Richard Hawes appears to have had no surviving wife.
      MAR #2: No mar rec found. The colony records show that on 7 Oct 1678 Obadiah Homes [Hawes] was the husband of John Holmes's widow (Nathaniel B. Shurtleff, ed, RECORDS OF THE GOVERNOR AND COMPANY OF THE MASSACHUSETTS BAY, 5 vols. [Boston, 1853-54], 5:204 [FHL #974.4 N2s]). The document is also recorded in Massachusetts Archives, 16:78, as cited in Frank M. Hawes, RICHARD HAWES OF DORCHESTER (Hartford, 1932), 26 (FHL #9298.273 H312h). Adm of estate of John Holmes of Dorchester was granted to his widow Sarah, Aug 1676 (Suffolk Co. Probate, #824, [n.s.] 2:540 [FHL #594359]).
      DEATH: DORCHESTER BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS, 121. Also see the adm of estate of Obadiah Hawes of Dorchester, 20 Dec 1690, inv 14 Nov 1690, Suffolk Co. Probate, #1774, (n.s.) 1:255 (FHL #594359), 8:176 (FHL #594175).
