JOHN,
Hampton 1639, d. 28 Feb. 1687, a 98 yrs. as is said. Much more prob.
is the age set against his name, 40, on hid embark. 17 apr. 1635, at the
London custom ho. especially if he be that baker, whose fellow-passeng.
were two serv. James Walker, aged 15, and Sarah Walker, 17, the latter
of wh. in 1640, bec. his w. as descend. suppose. By what I think
the wrong statement, he was b. 1589, and this maiden was b. 1618.
Beside the number and dates of his ch. disprove or make highly improb.
the great age : Sarah; John, b. 1644; Elizabeth; Benjamin; Jacob, 1653;
Mary, 13 Sept. 1655; Thomas, 14 July 1657; and Stephen, 1659, wh.

From Dow’s History of the Town of Hampton:32
    “John Brown, born in England in 1588 or ‘89, emigrated in 1635, and is said to have settled in Hampton as early as 1639. A tract of four acres, for a house lot, lying near a branch of the river, afterward bearing his own name, was granted to him, though he seems not to have settled there. His residence was on a ten-acre lot bought of John Sanders, on which Zaccheus Brown, a lineal descendant of the seventh generation, now [1893] resides. He afterward, by purchase, made large additions to this lot, and obtained various other tracts in different parts of town.”

John married Sarah Walker. Sarah died on 6 Jun 1672 in Hampton, NH.
