Notes
- Line 28831 from GEDCOM File not recognizable or too long: BIRT DATE BET 1630 AND 1631 Benajah Pratt was admitted a freeman at Plymouth on June 6, 1654. He was a surveyor in 1658, served on jury duty 1665-6 and was a tax collector in 1667 and 1668. His widow married August 1683, as his 2nd wife, Jonathan Shaw, son of John and Alice Shaw. Her daughter Mehitable had previously married Jonathan Shaw's son. Jayne [Pratt] Lovelace states that "some of the lands of Benajah 'he being deceased', were divided 2 June 1682, naming his sons in this order: eldest son Joshua, John, Benajah, Jr., Eleazer, Daniel, Joseph (from Boston Transcript)." In her Pratt Directory she names Mehitable and Hannah as probable daughters. *Reference: Plymouth Church Records, vol I, part 5, p1; NEHGR 9:313; MD 17:72; Mrs Richard Jones, Belfast, Maine; Lovelace, "The Pratt Directory"; personal letter from Jayne (Pratt) Lovelace; Davis, 209; Plymouth Colony Records, 8:17; "Snow-Estes Genealogy," 165; PCSM, 22:249.
