Note on Husband: John * MARION

Random Notes - In No Order - For Research Purposes - Unproven

Last name may be spelled Marrion, Meryon, Merrion. Have a death date of Jan 27, 1705 according to the LDS church.

Buried in King's Chapel Burying Ground, Boston, Mass. He was a cordwainer. "The History of Hampton" lists the following child as being born to John Marion and Sarah Eddy : Elizabeth, who married Henry Dearborn; Hannah, who married Isaac Godfrey; Abigail, probably, who died Sept 25, 1668; John (Probably). I do not have Abigail and Hannah, or Ruth, etc.

The book "A B to Z, a genealogy" by Garrett, says that their children were born either at Watertown or Boston, Mass.

I did have the place of birth as Watertown, Mass. but this cannot be correct. The LDS Church says Steble, England.

The LDS church says he died 27 Jan 1705, Boston, Suffolk, MA

The "History of Early Settlers of New England" said his name could be spelled "Merion" Can also be spelled Merin, Meryon, Marion, Merrin, Maryon.
