6. JOSEPH2 ROYALL (William1), if his age, entered on the Boston records at the time of his death, was correct, was born about 1645; sail-maker of Charlestown in 1673 or earlier, and later of Boston. While no recorded proof of his descent from the Casco Bay settler has been found, it is extremely probable that he was a son, and that he moved from the Royall River estate with his father and brothers shortly before his name appears on the Charlestown records.

He purchased in 1676-7, of John Drinkwater, an estate on Trumbull's Lane, Charlestown, apparently his first real estate acquirement. The following year he purchased of John Smith and Sarah Parruck a lot on the street leading to the Battery, and near Martin's wharf, and a year later he purchased one-third of Smith's wharf. He invested his money in mortgages of real estate in Boston, and it appears that the last years of his life were passed there.

The surname of Joseph Royall's wife Mary is not known. She was admitted to the church in Charlestown, 14 Jan. 1682-3, was living in 1713, but probably died before her husband.

Joseph Royall died in Boston 14 Jan. 1728, “aged 83."

The issue of Joseph and Mary Royall were:

• 14. i. Joseph, b. 5 Sept.1673
• ii. MARY, b. 5 June, 1676; d. 12 Dec. 1690, "æ. 19."

Origins of Elizabeth Warren

?Royall?

Elizabeth (___?___) (Barlow) (Coombs) Warren had children by three husbands. Children by all three husbands called Joseph Royall an uncle. This would indicate that Joseph was her brother or brother-in-law (the husband of Elizabeth's sister). Joseph was married to a woman named Mary, whose surname is also unknown.

Joseph Ryall was the son of William Royall. William and Phebe Green had no child named Elizabeth.[5]

Conclusion

Evidence indicates that Elizabeth was the sister of Mary (_______), the wife of Joseph Royall. Their surname is unknown and their parentage is unknown. Elizabeth was probably born between 1634 and 1639, based on the birth of her first child in 1657. There is a possibility she was born in Massachusetts, but could have been born in England also.
