* There was a Lieut. James March of Greenland, sadler, 1706; but G. R., 1853, p. 84, makes him nephew of Col. John of S., possibly (12) James.3
f There were Martins in Ipswich, Andover, Dover, and Portsmouth, before 1700; but we have not found them related to the Amesbury family.
# According to a deposition of Robert Pike, in 1655, " George Martine came over a servant to Mr. Sam. Winsley, about the time of the beginning of the town of Salisbury, then called Colchester [1630], and was no commoner in Salisbury . till he bought John Cole's first wright . , in the year 1643 or tucreabout, at the time said Cole went to Andover on somer"

[one summer]. Cole returned to Salisbury, and was admitted a townsman ind commoner in 1650; so that Martin was commoner by Cole's first right. ind Cole by his own second right. [Supreme Court Files, Boston.]
* She was arrested by a warrant dated April 30, examined May 20, 1602. )ne charge against her was that she went from A. to Nb. afoot, in a "dirty eason," without getting her clothing wet. She is described as "a short, ctive woman, wearing a hood and scarf, plump and well developed in ker igure, of remarkable personal neatness;" one who "scorned to be drabble :!; " 'a strong minded woman, as her examination shows."
If the testimony of Wm. Brown [p. 75] is conclusive as to date, she was ac- used of witchcraft as early as 1660. In April, 1669, suit of Goo. Martyn gainst William Sargent, for slander, in saying said Martyn's wife was a witch, ne jury found for the defendant, but the court "concurred not with the iry." Geo. Martyn gave bond that his wife Susanna should appear at the ext court to answer to the charge concerning suspicion of witchcraft. In Oct., 369, she was required to acknowledge in open court that she wronged Chris- pher Bartlett, in charging him with lying and stealing. [Nk. Co. Rec.]
t The record "d. Dec. 11, 1662[S]," is prob. an error. Wm. gave his age 3- in March, 1725-6. Of course (9) Wm. may have d. the day of his birth; but so, a second Wm. was b. ab. 1663.
NOTE .- A Mr. Richard Martyne m., bef. 1673, wid. Martha Dennison, at I ?. ike's Journal states that Mr. Richard Martyn Jr. died of small-pox Dec. ", 90; no res. given, prob. at Portsmouth. Will of Richard Martyn of Portsm .. Exeter, Jan., 1692-3; April, 1694.
