notes

From http://minerdescent.com/2010/09/22/joseph-bosworth/

Some genealogies say that Hanniel was Susannah’s father and not her brother and he was born in 1589 in Boston, Lincolnshire, England instead of 1615.  These genealogies move his marriage to Abigail Scott up to  17 Mar 1614 in England instead of 17 Mar 1654.  They also change Abigail’s birth to 5 Mar 1591 in Rattlesden, Suffolk, England.   In both versions Hanniel died 25 Sep 1683 in Ipswich, Essex, Mass. and Abigail died 1684 in Ipswich, Essex County, Mass.

There is no reference to the surname Bate (or Bachiler) in this article. Of Richard Hutchinson’s wife, Alice Bosworth, Stearns writes, "daughter of Joseph Bosworth of Holgrave.” Of Richard Hutchinson, Stears published an elaborate ancestral line said based on tradition. No reference or informant account was provided in support of the tradition (events some 300-500 years prior); the genealogical account was couched only by the statement, “There is, however, no documentary evidence to confirm such tradition.”
