    Notes:

    John Macomber was impressed as a soldier in Queen Anne's War 22 December 1701,
    and again 26 June 1711.

    January 5, 1732, John Macomber of Taunton deeded to his son Nathaniel one-third
    of his home farm, one corner being at the saw mill. The same day he gave to
    son Josiah one-third of the same farm.

    His will, dated 28 December 1742, was probated 5 April 1748. It names wife
    Lydia and children Nathaniel, Josiah, John, James, Elijah, Joseph, Elizabeth
    Rounsevill, Abia and Anna. His son Elijah inherited the homestead in East
    Taunton.

    The burial ground, where rest the early generations of Macombers, is on Staples
    Street not far from the Macomber farm.

    The record of the family of John Macomber has been preserved in a branch of his
    descendants now living in Augusta, Maine. It was, perhaps, copied from the
    records of Taunton before they were destroyed by fire in 1848.
