• Notes

  (A History of Bristol County, Massachusetts, by Frank Walcott Hutt,1924). (The land at first)... as an extensive garden, had been planted bynatives (before the whites came). The " Old Field", previous to thepermanent settlement of this territory by transcient settlers, huntersand small farmers, built their homes along the edge of the old Indianfarmland. Who these were, there remains no further record, but it isunderstood that all had left before the outbreak of the King Philip Warin 1675, with the excepion of Captain Jared Talbot, who when the waractually made itself evident, went over to Taunton to join the colonistat the garrison house. The name of Jared Talbot is the first to appear inthe old records of this purchase. The earliest family record that hasbeen preserved announces the marriage of Jared Talbot and RebeccaHathaway, May 4 1687. It is believed that theirs was the first framehouse in Dighton. In 1715 Captain Jarad Talbot and Deacon AbrahamHathaway were given charge of the use of the ferry-boat, which was to befree for the inhabitants on all public days.
