    Notes 
    • BIRTH: George F. Sanborn, Jr, and Melinde Lutz Sanborn, eds, VITAL RECORDS OF HAMPTON, 2 vols. (Boston, 1992-98), 1:106 (FHL #974.26/H3 V2s).
      MAR: No mar rec found. Children of Jonathan Prescott and his wife Elizabeth were born in Hampton, 1696-1709 (Ibid, 1:28, 32, 39, 65, 68, 71).She was apparently the Elizabeth Pulsipher who married Isaac Clifford at Newbury, Mass., 13 Aug 1693 (VITAL RECORDS OF NEWBURY, 2 vols. [Salem, MA, 1911], 2:104 [FHL #974.45/N1 V28v]). Isaac died at Hampton, 2 May 1694 (Sanborn, VITAL RECORDS OF HAMPTON, 1:118). Elizabeth, dau of Isaac and Elizabeth (Pulsipher) Clifford, married Peter Garland. On 18 Jul 1737, Peter and Elizabeth Garland sold 4 acres in Hampton that was formerly Isaac Clifford's to "our brother" Jonathan Prescott of Kensington, they being heirs of the late Isaac Clifford (New Hampshire Province Deeds, 28:8 [FHL #015420]). Jonathan was the son of Jonathan and Elizabeth Clifford, born at Hampton, 16 Jul 1696 (Sanborn, VITAL RECORDS OF HAMPTON, 1:65). The will of Elizabeth, widow of Jonathan Prescott of Hampton Falls, 24 Jan 1755, proved 30 May 1755, mentions her dau Elizabeth Garland and son Jonathan Prescott, among others (PROBATE RECORDS OF THE PROVINCE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE, 9 vols., repr of New Hampshire State Papers Series, vols. 31-39 [Bowie, MD, 1989-90], 5:211-12 [FHL #974.2 P2p]).
      DEATH: No death rec found. For death info, see William Precott, THE PRESCOTT MEMORIAL (Boston, 1870), 231 (FHL #982013 item 3). Although no confirmation was found in original sources, the date is probably accurate, as Jonathan executed a deed in the form of a will on 11 Dec 1754, apparently shortly before his death (New Hampshire Province Deeds, 46:330 [FHL #015431]). William Prescott states that Jonathan died in Kensington, but the deed shows he was living in Hampton Falls. He was certainly dead by 24 Jan 1755, when his widow made her own will, above.
