(108) He died intestate, in the village/district of Lakenham (then in the town of Plymouth, later incorporated as part of the town of Plympton, and now North Carver), most probably in July 1701, for the inventory of his estate was taken at Lakenham on 30 July 1701. (109) Jonathan Shaw married, first, at Plymouth, 22 January 1656[/7], PHEBE WATSON, (110) who was born, say 1636, at Plymouth, the daughter of George and Phebe (Hicks) Watson.
