Note on Husband: Henry AXTELL (1)

b. in England and christened in Berkhamstead on October 15, 1641. He was a

boy of five when his father died. In 1660 a tract of land lying west of

Sudbury was incorporated as a town by th name of Marlboro. Edmond Rice,

before mentioned, was a prime mover in the formation of the new town. Henry

Axtell, then only nineteen, became one of the proprietors and received

fifteen acres of land in the central part of the town as his portion for what

was called "a house lot." Besides this, he probably had a portion of meadow

and other out-lying land. On June 14, 1665, he married Hannah, the daughter

of George and Susan Merriam who came from Kent, England, in the ship "Castle"

in 1638. She was born in Concord, Massachusetts, July 14, 1645. In the spring

of 1676 the Indians, led by King Phillip of Mount Hope, Rhode Island, made a

general war on the white settlements. They attacked several of the smaller

places in the interior of Massachusetts and killed many of the settlers;

among those from Marlboro was Henry Axtell.

 

The inventory of his property is dated April 1, 1676. The famous Sudbury

fight, when the captain and his men were caught in ambush by the Indians and

many of them were slain, took place three weeks after the death of Henry

Axtell. His widow married Will Taylor July 16, 1677.¹
