Notes

After the death of Thomas in Enfield, the deeds there provide important evidence. On 13 Dec. 1704, John Haward with Priscilla his wife, Ruth Haward his mother, and Benjamin Haward his minor brother, conveyed. Ruth Howard witnessed a deed of John Howard, 12 Feb. 1705/6, which is the last reference we have seen to her as living. On 17 Mar. 1732, Obadiah Hulburd of Enfield, Benjamin Howard of "Narrowgansett," and John Pirkins of New Haven had land laid out upon Thomas Howard's right. John Perkins and Elizabeth his wife of New Haven conveyed 30 June 1737 to Ebenezer Howard of New London [her nephew], all right from her father Thomas Howard deceased. Thomas's son John called himself a weaver in a deed, and that may perhaps have been his father's trade. [Hist, of Enfield, 3:1995, 1998, 2080; 1:826.]
