Misc. Notes
Mary Jones first husband was Joseph Lewis. There is a tradition that Joseph Lewis was the first white man slain in King Philip's War. He was killed at Swansea, June 24, 1675. (Bodge's King Philip's War, p. 463.) A list of the slain reported by the clerk of the town at the time is: Joseph Lewis, Robert Jones, John Jones,* Nehemiah Allen, William Cohun, John Salisbury, William Salisbury, John Hall. (Plymouth Colonial Records.)

Joseph Lewis married Mary Jones, June 13, 1671. (Swansea Records.) She was the daughter of Robert and Anne (Bibble) Jones of Hull. Anne was the daughter of John and Sibyll Bibble of Malden. After the massacre Mary returned to Malden to live with her grandmother. Mary, the widow of Joseph, married, Jan. 11, 1677, at Malden, Obadiah Jenkins. He died in 1720, and his sons Joel and Obadiah gave bond April 1, 1720, and were appointed administrators of his estate. His wife Mary must have died before that time, as she had no share in his estate.

Mary’s maternal grandmother, Sybil Tincknell/Bibble/Nutt/Doolittle, was of Maiden, where she lived and died Sept. 23, 1690, aged about 82 years. Her will, made at Maiden, Dec. 25, 1683, proved in 1690, gives "to Obadiah Jenkins and Mary Jenkins his wife and their children, all my housing and lands in Maiden, with all movables, he paying out of it to my grandchildren, Robert, Zachery, Benjamin and Rebeccah Jones £5, a piece when they become of age. I make my grandson Obadiah Jenkins my Executor of this my last Will."
