• Notes

  Born in Reydon or Southwold? Christopher Yongs and his wife, Priscilla, probably came from England in 1635, in the ship "Love," of which his brother Joseph was master. He was a weaver, and brought looms, gearing, and cloth to this country; but had to supplement the product of his looms by fishing during its season. On the 17th, 12th mo., 1636, he received a grant of land for a home lot at Salem, Mass., and was received as an inhabitant.|| He was granted half an acre at Winter Harbor for his "fishing affairs/'t and several large grants later.! About 1644 he removed to Wenham. Mass., where he died three years later. ^
