HISTORY OF HANOVER.
ESTES.
Matthew Estes, a son of Robert and Dorothy Estes, was in Lynn as early as 1695, and d. there, July 9, 1723. It is doubtful if he was ever in Hanover, though he was one of the overseers of the will of Edward Wanton of Scituate, proved Jan. 7, 1717. He was a quaker and a mariner. Was in New England before 1676, -first at Dover, N. H.

He lived the latter part of his life in Lynn and Salem. It is doubtful if he was ever in Hanover.
