Notes

Very little is known about this man, but many feel he came from England.
One fact is known: he is considered the American progenitor of the
entire Brayton line. All across Rhode Island, there are towns which were
once named after him or his offspring.

Progenitor for the Rhode Island Brayton lineage. No one has been able to
prove where he came from, although many suspect he came from England. The
first record he left was in a town meeting in Portsmouth on November 28,
1643. The record states that Francis "was received as an inhabitant, gave
his engagement unto the government and propounded for a lot of land."
Much of the information on the Brayton line until about 1800 comes from
"Brayton Family History," Volumes 1 & 2, Clifford Ross Brayton, Jr., 1978
& 1982, Rochester, New York 14612 LCC 78-73857. Brayton gives the history
of Francis and his descendents. ID numbers given here in the form of
Brayton #n correspond to the ID numbers in Brayton's book. Will dated
10/17/1690, proved 9/5/1692 Exx. wife Mary. Overseers, friends George

Notes

Her father was a tall English merchant who died when she was quite
young. She was raised by her German grandmother until she met James
MacFarland. They moved to Pueblo, CO in 1875, then purchased a wagon and
a team of horses and settled in Rye, CO. James died in 1878, and in 1880
she remarried to John Ritter. (Kelley, Hazel Grace (McFarland))
