BANBRIDGE, GUY, had a grant of land in Aug. 1634, and resided at the S. E. corner of Garden and Mason streets.

Justice subsequently exchanged the homestead, with William Towne, for a house on the east side of Dunster Street, between Harvard and Mt.

John Bridge of Camb. in 1658, and Edward Taylor of Boston. She was living in 1685, as appears by a receipt indorsed on her marriage contract with Deac. Bridge, acknowledging the full payment of her claim on his estate. The re- ceipt is dated 23 Dee. 1685, and signed by " Timothy Pratt of Boston, tailor, attorney and by order of Edward Taylor and Elizabeth his wife, the relict of John Bridge deceased, within named."

The court ordered William Barstow to retraet. The explanation of this is, that George Barstow was a member of the Second Church in Seituate, with which Mr. Chauney was at variance." Deane's Hist.
