• Notes

  Notes for William Upton from the Essex Genealogist: William inherited his father's Salem Village farm along with his brother, Samuel, which they held and enjoyed until 1708, when the farm was divided by running a straight line through it. This division of property seems not to have been on the account of any disagreement for, although each married and there were ten children born to each, most of them survived their parents, they lived in one house all their days, at least fifty years. They bought and sold land together, were taxed together, and sat together in the meeting-house. They held a black servant together, and freed him in 1717. (NEHGR, Jan 1875 P.2) The numerous Upton family of Salem Village managed to steer clear of the witchcradt hysteria.
