• Notes

  Signed his will on 18 Jul 1724. John was on the Grand Jury in 1695 and 1698. He was baptized two days before he signed his will. John had two wives and ten children. The order of the children is not known except for the first son, John, who was the s/o John's first wife, Mary Canney. Three of the remaining four sons and one daughter of the five daughters could be the children of Mary Canney as the first son, John, in 1747, sued for share of self and three brothers and one sister in Grandfather Canney's estate. We make the assumption that Joseph is the s/o Mary Canney as we know the birthday of son Samuel, 10 March 1699 is after the date of John's second marriage to Rachel Allen. John and his first wife, Mary (Canney) Twombly had five children, we assume, dates and order of birth unknown, all born in Dover, NH
