In the list of Boston births in 1680, there is a Joseph Kerbey, b. 1 Dec of that year to a
Henry and Elizabeth. My gut tells me that this is a misspelling of the name Kerley -and I
can not find any Kerbey's in a listing of residents in Boston at that time. Whether
this was a child of Capt. Henry and 2nd wife Elizabeth Ward, or of Henry, Jr and his wife
Elizabeth Unknown it is hard to tell. At that point in history, they were both having
children at the same time.
By all that I have seen, the only children we can truly attribute to Bartholomew and
Hannah would be James, b 1686 - m. Ruth Eyers; Hannah b. 1687; and Peter b. 1690 m. Mary
Chadwick, parents of the Joseph who m. Sally Washburn.
There was an Abraham b. 1680 in Marlborough who married Mary French, b 1684 but I think he
was a son of Henry, Jr and his wife who married abt. 1680 and who is known to have also
had a son John, b. 1683.
