Notes

From https://vredenburgh.org/babcock/pages/James_Badcock.htm

‘Records in this book will show that James, Sr., was born in 1612; that he was in Portsmouth, R.I., 1642, where he resided for about twenty years; that March, 1661-2, he removed to that part of Rhode Island which was later named Westerly, where he spent the remainder of his life and died there June 12, 1679. It is not true that "he married his second wife in Plymouth about 1650." His first wife, Sarah, was living in Westerly in 1665, and joined by her husband in deeding land owned by them in Portsmouth. James Badcock by his first wife, Sarah, did have four children, James, John, Job and Mary, as stated by Wells, but it is not true that they "were born in England from 1612 to 1620," neither is it true that James, Job and Mary settled with their father in Plymouth. Records of these children found in this volume will show that they all settled in Westerly, R. I., where each married, had children, and died there.

"It is true that one of James Badcock’s children by his second wife, Elizabeth, was named Joseph, but it is not true that he was born about 1650 in Plymouth, nor that he settled near Saybrook, Conn. He was born in Westerly about 1670, as is shown by his father’s will and inventory, and settled in Stonington, Conn. (which town joins Westerly, R. I.), where he spent the remainder of his life.
