Notes
General:
confirm mother and datesMarriage Notes (Jonathan Higgins)
Lydia (Sparrow) Freeman married Jonathan Higgins, probably in Eastham. Second marriage for both. Date is after 27 Apr 1696, because that is the date on which the widow Freeman presented an account on William Freeman's estate, and guardians were appointed for their children.
KC Higgins questioned Lydia's identification as Sparrow, by Stanley Smith, as unproven.
Presumably Hannah and Samuel were children by a prior marriage of Jonathan.
"Deacon" Jonathan Higgins left no will and there is nothing on the Probate Records at Barnstable at present to show who his children were, neither are they recorded on the town records. Hence the list of his children has to be conjectural. (from KC Higgins, 1919)
