  1. 10.  Hugh PARSONS, II was born Abt 1613; died 1684.

    Notes:

    On 3 July 1662 Hugh and his wife Elizabeth sold eighteen acres to William Wood. Hugh was made a freeman in 1663, and on 10 August 1667 enlisted in a "troop of horse." He was Deputy in 1678. It is thought that Elizabeth was the widow of William England, but her maiden name is not known.

    A document of Hugh Parsons, dated 20 July 1670, mentions that he is custodian of the estate left to his grandson, Hugh Bailey, by his father William Bailey. He also states that upon his own death and the death of his wife, his grandson shall be sole heir of all his possessions. In his will dated 11 Jan 1684, proved 14 March 1684, he says that if Hugh should die, then the inheritance should pass on to his grandson's heirs. His wife is to bring up this grandson, and he is to be helpful to her.
