  • Notes: 

  • The births of John Kingsbury's children are all recorded in the York, Maine, vital records. However, his eldest daughter Mary's also appears in the Newbury, Massachusetts, vital records. John Kingsbury was conveyed land by John More in York, Maine, 12 MAR 1715/16, nine months before Mary was born. It would appear that his eldest daughter was the only child born in Newbury, Massachusetts, with the rest being born in York, Maine.
