William Hoskins, III

Biography

William Hoskins was born June 30, 1681, in Taunton, Massachusetts, and died Dec 1762 at age 81 in Taunton, Bristol, Massachusetts. He was the son of William Hoskins and Sarah Caswell. [1].

He married in 1712 in Taunton, Bristol, Massachusetts to Abigail Hoar, daughter of Nathaniel Hoar and Sarah Wilbore. She was born 2 Nov 1682 in Taunton, Bristol, Massachusetts and died there on 2 Dec 1762.

Ben M. Angel notes: A user identified William Hoskins/Haskins grave as being in Taunton, but without identifying the location, suggesting that its location was in some sort of "private record". Not exactly clear why an 18th century grave location for a shared historic profile would be a privacy concern in the 21st century.

In any case, it's location is not noted in other sources (Find A Grave, etc.), so it has to be presumed to be unknown, at least until the location is "made public".
