* The spelling KIAH, sometimes found on oficial records at the close of the 18th and the begin- ning of the 19th centuries, represents a common pronunciation of the name Currier at that time and later. For example, the printed Nb. records give Benjamin Kich m. Nabby Atkinson, Nov. 25, 1802, from church records; but Benjamin Currier m. Abigail Atkinson, same date, from town records. See also Kich Bayle, A. V. R. p. 29, and G. R. 46:12; also "Kiah Corner," Warner, N. H.
t If nearly all the 17th century Curriers of Mass., N.H., and Me. were descendants of (1) Richard?, he must have had three sons: Jeffrey of Portsmouth and the Isles of Shoals, Samuel of Haverhill, and Thomas of Amesbury; but Thomas is the only one who is known to be his son. If Jeffrey and Samuel were his sons, he must have married quite young, for he was b. about 1616 or "17, Samuel about 1636, and Jefrey quite as early.
