BROWN.
I. JOHN BROWN, born in England in 1588 or '89, emigrated in 1635, and is said to have settled in Hampton as early as 1639. A tract of four acres, for a house-lot, lying near a branch of the river, afterward bearing his own name, was granted to him, though he seems not to have settled there. His residence was on a ten-acre lot bought of John Sanders, on which Zaccheus Brown, a lineal descendant of the seventh generation, now resides. He afterward, by purchase, made large additions to this lot, and obtained various other tracts in different parts of the town. His wife's name was Sarah. He died Feb. 28, 1687. Their children :
Sarah, b. about 1643; m. John Poor; d. in Charlestown, Ms., Dec. 28, 1678.
