Notes

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Hinckley

Descendant of Governor Thomas Hinckley (1618 - April 25, 1706) was the governor of the Plymouth Colony and held several other governmental positions during his lifetime, including that of a representative, a deputy, magistrate, and assistant, among others. A monument, created in 1829 at the Lothrop Hill cemetery in Barnstable, Massachusetts, attests to his "piety, usefulness and agency in the public transactions of his time."

Date of birth has also been (erroneously?) reported to be 1683.

Date of death has also been (erroneously?) reported to be 1711.
