GEDCOM Note
A description of his grainmill is included in the Badger Book. It can also be found on a map published Higginsonbooks. Much of this information is also found in the Essex Antiquarian. "Upon the petition of John Badger, the town of Newbury, March 8, 1680-1 granted him liberty to use 'two rods of land against his house to set up a mill to make oatmeale'. The mill was after erected, 200 or 300 rods northerly from Little Hiil, in the north side of the highway leading from Parker River to the Merrimack, and was operated by horsepower. His house lot was at 'Badger's Corner, junction of Ordway's Lane and highway along the river.
HIs will of March 20, 1690-1 is in Vol. 304 Essex Probate Records. His wife died about the same time, both of smallpox. In the first cemetery at Newbury, a little northerly of Little Green, a black slate headstone has been erected."
