His will (dated 20 Jan 1703 & probated 23 Dec 1706) bequeathed to wife Eleanor "as by agreement"; to sons Samuel, Jonathan, Nathaniel; and to daughters Hannah Tucker, Lydia Leonard, Eliza G., and Mary Atherton.

Anthony Gulliver was born in 1619, and died in Milton, Norfolk, Massachusetts 28 November 1706, at the age of 87 years. He removed from Braintree to Unquity (the 'ancient' name for Milton) in 1646. He bought land there of Edward and Richard Hutchinson, bounded north by a creek (which he gave his name), Gulliver's Creek.

"Anthony Gulliver Dorchester 1656 Freeman 1666. Born in 1619 and died in Milton Mass Nov 28, 1706 aged 87 years. Made his will 1704. Here Lyes Buried ye Body of Anthony Gulliver aged 87 years died Nov ye 28 1706 (Milton's Epitaphs NE Register 1853 p 89). He married 1st Lydia Kingsley or Kinsley daughter of Elder Stephen Kinsley Married 2d Elinor who survived him."
"He removed from Braintree to Unquity in 1746 and bought land of Edward and Richard Hutchinson sons and heirs of Richard Hutchinson At an early date Anthony Gulliver came into possession of a large tract of land in the central part of the town most of which is now part of the estate of Col HS Russell This land was long owned and occupied by the Gulliver family The name of Gulliver appears under various forms of spelling as Caliphar Colliford Cullifer Gullwer Gouli ver Gulliwer Gullifer Gulliver History of Milton by AK Teele pp 105 106 Gulliver as a surname was once common through Oxfordshire Buckinghamshire and Cambridgeshire It is now confined to Nottinghamshire In the 13th century its form was Golafr Golaffre and Gulafre (Boston Transcript March 1898). Anthony Gulliver was the progenitor of a long line of solid and trustworthy men and women who have been conspicuous in the history of the church and town of Milton holding many of the important offices and faithfully meeting the trusts imposed on them for nearly two centuries The family is still represented among our citizens (History of Milton by Teele)."

Anthony GULLIVER (1619-1706) was son-in-law of Elder Stephen KINSLEY, as stated by Kinsley in his will.

Anthony GULLIVER m. Lydia KINSLEY before 1650. Their children:

1. Samuel GULLIVER, b. 14 Feb 1649/50 in Dorchester/Milton, MA, d. aft 1695 m. Jane Gilbert/Gilbord 15 Nov. 1675 in Milton, MA
2. Lydia GULLIVER/Caulipher b. 1651, in Dorchester/Milton, MA,d. 24 Apr 1705 m. James Leonard of Taunton 29 Oct 1675 in Boston, MA
3. Stephen GULLIVER b. 19 Jun 1653 in Dorchester/Milton, MA m. Rebecca ____?____
4. Capt. Jonathan GULLIVER, b. 27 Oct 1659 in Milton, MA, d. 3 July, 1737 in Milton, MA m. 1) Mary ROBINSON/ROBERNSON 17 Jan 1685/85 in Milton, MA m. 2) Theodora THATCHER 23 Mar 1703/04 in Milton, MA
5. Mary GULLIVER, b. 1660 in Milton, MA, d. 17 Oct 1754, prob. in Still River, MA m. Jonathan or Joshua ATHERTON 17 Mar 1678/79
6. Hannah GULLIVER/GULLEVIR, b. 1665 in Milton, MA, d. 21 Apr 1733. m. Ephraim TUCKER 27 Sept 1688
7. John GULLIVER, b. 3 Dec 1669 in Milton, MA
8. Elizabeth GULLIVER, b. 6 Nov. 1671 in Milton, MA d. 10 Feb 1719/1720 in Milton, MA m. Thomas ____?____ 14 Jun 1694
9. Nathaniel GULLIVER, b. 10 Nov. 1675 in Milton, MA d. 25 Mar 1743 in Milton, MA m. Hannah BILLING/BILLINGS 1 July 1698 in Milton, MA

Anthony GULLIVER m. 2) Eleanor, widow of John VEREN some time after Lydia's death in 1682, and betw. John Veren's death in Jan 1689/90 and Eleanor's death Jan 10 1691/2. (Torrey, "New England Marriages before 1700")

This was a late, brief marriage for Anthony. The confusion in the record seems to arise from Teele's 1887 History of Milton, Mass. Evidently, he had only come accross record of an Eleanor as Anthony's wife, and separately had record of Stephen KINSLEY's will, showing Anthony GULLIVER as one of three sons-in-law that would administer his estate. Teele then credited Eleanor/Elinor with all Anthony's children! Sorry, there are no known children of ANTHONY AND ELIZABETH GULLIVER. Nor do we know Elizabeth's maiden name, only that she was widow of John VEREN.

From Find A Grave source:

He married before 1650, Lydia Kinsley, daughter of Stephen Kinsley, and had five sons and four daughters.

1. Lydia, born 1651, married James Leonard 29 October 1675, Milton
2. Samuel, born 1653, married Jan/Jane Gilbord/Gilbert, Dorcheser 17 January 1682
3. Jonathan, born 27 October 1659 married Mary Robernson/Robinson of Dorchester, 17 January 1686,
4. Milton
5. Stephen, born 1663
6. John, born 3 December 1669
7. Hannah, married Ephraim Tucker 27 September 1688, Milton
8. Mary, married Joshua Atherton 17 March 1679, Milton
9. Elizabeth, born 6 November 1671
10. Nathaniel, born 10 November 1675, married Hannah Billings 1 July 1698, Milton

Lydia Kinsley Gulliver died in 1682. He married 2nd. Eleanor (..?..) Verein, widow of John, after January 1689/90 in Milton, Norfolk, Massachusetts.

Many of the ancient houses in Milton had the second story projecting over the first, two or three feet, and the house of Anthony Gulliver was of this description. He built his house on Squantum Street, on the north side of the brook. It was taken down in the mid-1800's. The imported brick used in the chimney bore the date 1680.

The name Gulliver appears under various forms of spelling, as: Caliphar, Colliforn, Cullifer, Gullliwer, Gouliver, Gulliwer, Gullifer, and Gulliver.
