Notes

From "Richard Sawtell of Watertown, MA," NEHGS "Register," Vol 126, pg. 3

Nothing is know of Elizabeth other than that she was likely the daughter of one of the early proprietors of Watertown. She survived her husband at his death and died 2 years later, son Enoch named as administrator. [sic, 2 months later]

"His (Richard Sawtell's) wife, named Elizabeth, was probably a daughter of one of the early Watertown settlers, but which one is unknown. Richard Kimball had a daughter, Elizabeth, of marriageable age and was living in Watertown at the time. [p. 344] She was still living when her father died, but who she married is unknown. However, there were at least two other Watertown men who married Elizabeths about that time, but there is no clue as to which of these was Elizabeth Kimball, if any.

"In 1670 or 71, Richard Sawtell and his wife took into their home the illegitimate child of Zechariah Smith, deceased. In 1672, he went to court against Thomas, John and Joseph Smith to collect for the child's keep out of the estate of the boy's father, and charged them with illegally administering the estate. He won £10.

"On 16 May 1692, Richard Sawtell wrote his own will. In this will he provided for his wife Elizabeth, mentioned son Obadiah of Groton, son Enoch of Watertown, daughters Bethia, Hannah Winn, Ruth Hewes, son John, son Jonathan, deceased, son Zechariah's children, and daughter Starling's children. His lands were at Watertown except for his 20 acre right in Groton. He died 21 August 1694, 'an aged man'. Elizabeth died 18 October 1694 and son Enoch was granted administration of the estate.
