"He was son of John, and grandson of General Daniel Dennison . His mother was Martha, daughter of Deputy-Governor Symonds . He graduated at Harvard College 1684 . He engages, April 5th, 1686 , to preach one quarter of the time, as helper to Mr. Hubbard , and, the next year, one third of the time. The affections of his people were strong towards him, and their estimation of his merit uncommonly high. They elected him for their pastor, but he was not ordained. God, who knows the end from the beginning, who often looks on the objects of his favor with eyes different from those of short-sighted men, designed him only for a transient residence on earth. Thus controlled by a power, in whose government he reposed an affectionate confidence, he, however strongly drawn to life by the wishes of many hearts, dutifully yielded to the message of his heavenly Father, and fell asleep in Jesus Christ . His decease was Sept. 14th, 1689 , in his 24th year. He left a wife, Elizabeth , who was daughter of Nathaniel Saltonstall of Haverhill , and who m. the Rev. Rowland Cotton of Sandwich , and d. in Boston July 9th, 1726 , in her 58th year. He also left a son, John . The description given of Mr. Dennison by Cotton Mather , was deserved:-"A gentleman of uncommon accomplishments and expectations, of whom the Church in Ipswich hoped, that under his shadow they should sit many years. He was to them a pastor, of whose fruit they tasted with an uncommon satisfaction." source unknown
