Page 526 – Eleazer Hamblin, son of James, was a soldier in Capt. John Gorham’s company in King Philip’s war, and an original proprietor of the town of Gorham, in Maine.

doing injustice in making the remark in connection with the elder
Eleazer.

He married 15 Oct. 1675, Mehitabel, daughter of John Jenkins,
and had six children born in Barnstable :

1. I. Isaac, 20th Aug., 1676.
2. II. Joseph, 20th Nov., 1680.
3. III. Mehitabel, 28th March, 1682, married Nov. 8, 1714,
   John Sanderson.
4. IV. Shubael, 16th Sept., 1695.
5. V. Elisha, bap. 30ih July. 1685.
6. VI. Ichabod, bap. 30th May, 1687.

The two last probably died young aud therefore their names do
not appear on the town record.
