    Notes 
    • BIRTH: No birth/chr rec found. Elizabeth is identified (as deceased) in the will of her father, William Hammond of Watertown, 1 Jul 1662, proved 16 Dec 1662, Middlesex Co. Probate Files, 1st series, #10262 (FHL #397083). William Hammond lived in Lavenham during all or most of the period. Elizabeth was shown as 15 yrs old on the passenger list of the ship "Francis" on 30 Apr 1634 (John Camden Hotten, THE ORIGINAL LISTS OF PERSONS OF QUALITY [New York, 1880; repr Baltimore 1962], 280 [FHL #973 W2h]). Although this calculates to a birth year of about 1619, it seems more likely that she was born about 1614. The register of Lavenham is incomplete for 1614, and there is a significant gap between the baptisms of William Hammond's children during the period 1611-1616. The ages on the passenger list of the "Francis" are not accurate. Note that the age of Elizabeth's sister Sarah, who was baptized in 1621, is off by three yrs on the same passenger list.
      MAR: No mar rec found. The 4 children of his daughter Elizabeth "House," deceased, are mentioned (but not named) in the will of her father, William Hammond of Watertown, above. Samuel Howse of Cambridge had a wife Elizabeth in a deed to Joseph Tilden of Scituate, 13 Nov 1643 (Nathaniel B. Shurtleff and David Pulsifer, eds, RECORDS OF THE COLONY OF NEW PLYMOUTH, 12 vols. [Boston, 1855-61], 12:100-101 [FHL 974.4 N2n]). Rev. John Lothrop, who married a sister of Samuel House, called Elizabeth Hammond of Watertown "sister" when he admitted her to his own church at Scituate, 14 Apr 1636 ("Scituate and Barnstable Church Records," NEHGR, 9[1855]:280 [FHL #974 B2ne]). Since Lothrop called her by her maiden name while calling her sister suggests that the admission to the Scituate church took place after the marriage contract but before the actual marriage. Furthermore, Joseph and Hannah House, minor children of Samuel Howse of Scituate, deceased, made choice of John Hammond of Watertown as guardian, 7 Oct 1663. The original bond is found in Charles H. Pope, ed, THE PLYMOUTH SCRAP BOOK (Boston, 1918), 19-20 (FHL #974.4 N2p). The document is not recorded in the register copy of the probate recs; it apparently came from an original file. John Hammond is a son of William Hammond of Watertown.
      DEATH: No death rec found. Elizabeth is called deceased in her father's will, above.
