-- Joseph --
lived in Yarmouth. In 1680 he traded for a farm in
Barnstable, but about 1690 removed to Preston,
Connecticut.

He soon
married a cousin of his first wife, Sarah Clark.
Their children were: Joseph, born 1666 (also
given 1673); Hannah, February, 1668, not living in
1704; Mary, April, 1670, married J. Clark 16
November, 1697; Mercy, 12 March, 1674;
Elizabeth, 14 January, 1679(80), not living in 1704;
John, 1682, died 2 August, 1716. These are from
the town records at Barnstable. Mentioned in the
settlement of the estate were Jemima, Kezia, and
Sarah. As Jemima bore the first wife's name, it is
natural to suppose that she was the first born
daughter by the second marriage, born about
1666. The Stow record is not incorrect in calling
her 'of Plymouth'; Barnstable was in Plymouth
Colony.' Source: 'Powers-Banks Ancestry' by
