  • Notes 
    • The information on Mary's husband came from a genealogy of John Peckham on a "Family Archives" CD: RI Genealogies. That entry identifies Benjamin as the husband of Mary, daughter of Gov. Caleb and Phillipa Carr. However, I don't think this Caleb was a governor, too; that it is probably an error (needs more research).
