1604, his baptism is not recorded, there being a break in the

will in 1608. He m. in Halifax Parish, Apr. 11, 1629, Mary
Gawkroger or Platts. They lived for a time in Sowerby, where
five of their children were born, three of whom were brought to
America, two buried at Sowerby. In 1638, he was living in the
Island of Barbadoes, owning more than ten acres of land on the
Island as proved by an old record recently found upon the Island.
In 1640, he came to New England, settled for a time in Water-
town, where he had large grants of land alotted to him. In 1643
he associated himself with Thomas King and others, for the pur-
pose of purchasing of Sholan, the Indian Sachem of the Nasha-
way tribe of Indians, a tract of land for a township, which was to
be ten miles long and eight in breadth, known as the " Nashaway
plantation," afterwards, Lancaster, Mass., one of the original set-
tlers and considered the founder. The town received its name
May 18, 1633, the name it is said being given in honor of Mr.
Prescott, it being the name of his native county in England.
Mary, wife of John Prescott, appears to have been the dau. of
James and Martha (Ainsworth) Gawkroger, m. Sept. 5, 1601, his
will written 1625, a clothier of Sowerby, she was bapt. Mar. 15,

roger or Platts, m. Dec. 2, 1571. The children of John and Mary
bear the names of the children found in James Gawkroger Jr.'s
will in many instances, as Martha, Sarah, Anne or Hannah and
Lydia, the children, grand and great grandchildren of John Pres-
cott will be given in the October Quarterly as far as the records
can be obtained, with full dates.

MRS. E. FOSTER BAILEY.
Mrs. DOROTHY S. (Kimball") Bailey (15121), Vol. H, p. 491.
died at her home in Pltchburg, Mass., Mar. 3, 1905. Mrs. Bailey
was born in Fitchburg, Aug. 3, 1817, daughter of Ephraim and
Dorothy (Sawyer*^) Kimball and granddaughter of Phineas Jr.,
and Mary (Prescott^) Sawyer (712). She was married June 4,
88 WHITE FAMILY QUARiERLY.
1846, Ebenezer Foster, son of Ebenezer and Lucy (Goldsmith)
Bailey, born in Westmoreland, N. H., Feb. 19, 1820. Mrs.
Bailey was from early life a devoted Christian, a very efficient
worker in the church and Sunday school, and for many years as-
sisted in the service of song, she was active in the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union and ready for every good word and
work. Although Mr. and Mrs. Bailey were married nearly 59
years, death had never before broken the family circle, she is
survived by her husband, and by four children, Ebenezer, Harri-
son, William Kimball Bailey and Miss Anna M. Bailey and a
large circle of friends.
Mrs. OLIVE Elizabeth (Childs^) Edwards (29) p. 55, Vol. I,
No. 2, " White Family Quarterly," died at her home in Holyoke,
Mass., Feb. 27, 1905. Mrs. Edwards was born in New l^rain-
tree, Mass., Dec. 1, 1872; daughter of Henry Hinckley and
Martha A. (Howe^) Childs, being the third in their family of
eleven children and the first death in their family. She was mar-
ried in Holyoke, June 13, 1895, to Charles Samuel, son of
Samuel Finley and Adeline Fidelia (Gridley) Edwards, born in
Southampton, Mass., Oct. 22, 1872. For a few years after their
marriage they lived in Springfield, Mass., where they united with
Christ Church and have since retained their membership, Mrs.
Edwards was an active member and a former officer of the Rath-
bone Sisters. She was a devoted wife and mother, a sweet
Christian woman in every way, always of a sunny temperament,
even after she had become a great sufferer. She is survived by
her husband and three little children, Elizabeth Adeline, Roger
Gerhart and Kingsley Edwards, also her father and mother,
brothers and sisters, Mrs. B. V. Brooks of Greenwich Village,
George E. of Wilbraham, Charles H. of New Haven, (Conn.),
Willard T. of Petersham, Mrs. Harry Brainard of South Hadley
Falls, and Robert, Fred, Arthur, Esther and Herman Childs with
their mother in Holyoke, her father, who for a number of years
conducted a successful business college in Holyoke is now in the
West. Though we sympathize with all her friends in their be-
reavement, yet our heart goes out to little Kingsley, who will
never have even a memory of his loving mother to cherish, only
as he receives it from the words of others.
