    Notes:

    From Ann Tracy Marr on the Driver and Green Families & Ancestors in America. She posted a long History of the Bill Family in which she puts forth the following information: "It is assumed that (James) John and Dorothy must have arrived in the colony prior to 1636, for we find that a boy named John Bill, aged 13, came in the ship "Hopewell", in 1635; also, that one Mary Bill, aged 11, came in the ship "Planter" about the same time. There is little reason to doubt these two children were also the children of John and Dorothy, for we find the girl Mary Bill in company with the Tuttles." She continues to list the children of John and Dorothy as James, Thomas, Philip, John and Mary. Of John and Mary, we only know that they came in 1635. We do not hear of them again."

    Death date given as October 1638, Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts
    Notes: "The earliest mention of John Bill is found in the ancient town records of "The Town of Boston," where we read, 'John Bill died 10 month,1638.' A month later, 21 January 1638/39, Richard Tuttell (Tuttle) became responsible to the Town of Boston for 'one Dorothie Bill, widow, a sojourner in his house,' and 'for anything about her.' Drake's History of Boston, page 245. This ancient phraseology pertaining to Dorothy Bill means that she had lately become a widow, and Mr. Tuttle, who was probably her brother, engaged to meet any expense that might arise on account of her and her children. 'Anything about her' undoubtedly refers to children connected to Dorothy.

In 1668 he returned to Pulling Point and shorty after moved to NewLondon. He settled east of the River Thames near Robert Allyn and GeorgeGeer.

    "He died on 8 July 1689. His daughter, Margaret, died the same day. Bothwere victims of an epidemic throat disease that was prevalent in July andAugust of that year.
    "Mr. Bradstreet baptized his son, Jonathan, on 5 Nov 1671 and adds to therecord that the father was a member of the church of Ipswich. Anotherson, Josua, was baptized in 1675. The other children, probably born inIpswich, were Philip, Samuel, John and Elizabeth (do page 320)

    BEF. 1705 owned Spectacle Island-Boston Harbor

    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

    SPECTACLE ISLAND lies in Boston harbor 3 1/2 miles from the wharf,
    between Castle and Long Islands. It was, for the most part, in the
    possession of the Bill family for about three quarters of century. The
    first record of sale or transfer to this family of which there is any
    positive knowledge, is a deed of three lots granted by James Bill, of
    Pulling Point, to Thomas Bill, of Boston, bearing date Dec. 13, 1666.The
    above Thomas Bill and his wife Abigail Bill, by deed in 1680, conveyed
    all their interest in Spectacle Island (about 35 acres) to their son
    Samuel Bill. He subsequently became possessed of the entire Island,and
    it was known for many years after by the name of "Samuel Bill's Island."
    He continued in the ownership up to the time of his decease, August 18,
    1705, when two thirds of it passed by will into the hands of his son,
    Samuel Bill, Jr.
    At a later date, this son acquired absolute title and held it up to
    1729-30, when it passed into the possession of his brother, Richard Bill,
    of Boston. It was during the ownership of Samuel Bill, Sr., in theyear
    1684, when the titles by which the Colonists held their lands werelikely
    to be put in jeopardy, in consequence of the insidious counsel of some of
    the resident authorities of the home government, that the following deed
    from an Indian Chief called Josiah or Wamputuck, and several of his
    counsellors, was thought useful.
    Note:
