    Notes 
    • CHR: C. E. Botwright, ed, "Transcription of the Registers of Baptisms, Marriages & Burials of the Parish of Dennington, Suffolk, 1571-1845," (typescript, 1963; Suffolk Record Office, Ipswich), unpaginated (FHL #993242 item 4).
      MAR #1: No mar rec found. On 17 Sep 1650 Daniel Killam and his wife Mary were fined for fornication, "having a child fully grown...born twenty-eight weeks after their marriage" (RECORDS AND FILES OF THE QUARTERLY COURTS OF ESSEX COUNTY, 9 vols. [Salem, MA, 1911-75], 1:196[FHL #974.45 P2e]). The birth of this child is not recorded at Wenham. The child was reportedly a son Daniel, born 15 May 1649 (Sidney Perley, "Killam Genealogy," ESSEX INSTITUTE HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS, 49[1913]:215 [FHL #974 B2e]). If this is accurate, the mar took place in Nov 1648. Mary is apparently the dau of Thomas Safford of Ipswich, whose will, 26 Feb 1666-26 Mar 1667, identifies daughters Elizabeth, Mary, and Abigail. The depositions of John Addams and Nicholas Wallis refer to Safford's "daughter Kellum" and another dau Abie (Abigail). Since the third dau, Elizabeth, was not married when Thomas Safford made his will, the dau Kellum must have been Mary and was no doubt the wife of Daniel Killam (THE PROBATE RECORDS OF ESSEX COUNTY, 3 vols. [Salem, MA, 1916-20], 2:79-81 [FHL #974.45 P2p]).
      MAR #2: Perley states that Daniel married (2) abt 1678 to Elizabeth, widow of Humphrey Gilbert, William Rayner, and Henry Kimball (Perley, "Killam Genealogy," 215.) Evidence is not found for this mar in original source records.
      MAR #3: VITAL RECORDS OF TOPSFIELD, 2 vols. (Topsfield, MA, 1903-16), 1:159 (FHL #974.45/T1 V2v).
      MAR #4: Perley, "Killam Genealogy," 215. No evidence found in original source records.
      DEATH: VITAL RECORDS OF WENHAM (Salem, MA, 1904), 205 (FHL #974.45/W2 V28v).
