I. HYDE, JONATHAN, SEN., was born 1626, came to Camb. Vil- lage, 1647, and purchased two hundred and forty acres of land in the village, with his brother, Dea. Samuel, in 1652, which they owned in common until 1661. In 1656, he bought of Thomas Woolson, eighty acres of land, more or less. Woolson bought it of Edward Goffe, 1653; probably there was more in this tract, being one-eighth of the tract recovered by Cambridge from the town of Dedham, in a law suit. He settled upon this land, and increased it by subsequent purchases, to about three hundred and fifty acres. His dwelling house was about seventy rods N. of the present Centre M. H. He bought and sold much land in the village, and in some of his deeds was styled " Sergeant." He had twenty-one children, fourteen by Mary French, dr. of William French, of Billerica, and seven by Mary Rediat, dr. of John Rediat, of Marlboro'. He made a mar- riage covenant, in 1673, with her father and brother, in which it was stipulated that he should m. Mary Rediat, and in case he should die before her, she should have his house, barn, and about one hun- dred acres of land. In case she had no children by him, then the one hundred acres was to pass to the children of his first w., after the decease of said Jonathan and Mary. This interesting document was dated 2. 11. 1673, nearly three months before the marriage cer- emony. It was witnessed by the Rev. Nath'l Gookin, of Camb.,

and his sister Elizabeth, the wid. of the Rev. John Eliot, Jr. This part of his homestead was bounded easterly by the highway from Watertown to Dedham, one hundred and sixty rods, and one hun- dred rods deep ; w. by his other lands ; northerly by land . of John Jackson, Sen., and southerly by the farm of Elder Wiswall ; reserv- ing a way one rod wide next to Wiswall's, to go to his other lands. This way ran from the Dedham road, at the training field, by the north bank of Wiswall's pond, and for the last century has been known by the name of " Blanden's lane," now called Pond street. The front of this grant extended from this lane, northerly one hun- dred and sixty rods, to about opposite to the commencement of the road leading to the easterly part of the town. This farm, therefore, was very near the centre of Newton, and included the spot where the Centre M. H. now stands. In 1702, he gave to John Kenrick and others, Selectmen of Newton, and their successors in office, " half an acre of land near Oak hill, abutting ten rods on the Ded- ham road, and eight rods wide, N. w. by his own land, for the use and benefit of the school at the south part of the town, to be em- ployed by said Selectmen to the ends aforesaid." This half acre of land was sold many years ago, and a small fund accumulated from the proceeds, which was divided among the inhabitants of the south school district, a few years since, by vote of the Town, pro rata, ac- cording to the taxes each one paid. It is supposed that he also gave part of the land at the wide part of the Dedham road, near the centre of the town, and Eld. Wiswall or his heirs the other part, for a training-field, but no record of such a gift has yet been found in the decds or wills. He was Selectman in 1691. He and his first w. were admitted members of the Camb. ch., in 1661, and his chil. Jonathan, ¿... Samuel, John, and Elizabeth, bap. there, in 1661 ; William, 1662, and Eleazer, 1664. A few years before his decease, he settled his own estate by making deeds of gift of his real estate to eleven of his chil .; the first was dated 1698, and the last 1710, conveying in all about four hundred acres, with several dwelling houses thereon. The other twelve children had probably deceased before him; the deaths of seven are recorded, and the other five were cither dead or other- wise provided for. In 1703, he deeded to his chil. a cart way through then homestead, to the Dedham highway, " to be used with gates forever." That cart way is now the highway, and N. w. boundary of the triangular place, formerly the homestead of Rev. Joseph Grafton, now of Michael Tombs. In his deed to his s. Samuel, he put a condition that he was not to sell it to a stranger, except
