Notes

These are my transcriptions, prone, as usual, to my errors. The original spelling, punctuation, inter-word spacing, and line formats are all preserved. Interestingly enough, someone in the Registry office took the trouble to underline the typos; the least I can do is show them too.

The original documents are available as digital images via the Massachusetts Registry of Deeds. They are not indexed, so you need to know the book and page numbers: book 2384, pp. 86-88.
