    Notes 
    • On 20th of March 1630, a group of men and woman, including Geroge and
      his wife Abigail Dyer, set sail from Plymouth,England, in the good
      ship, the "Mary and John." The ship arrived in Boston Bay two weeks
      before the Governor Winthrop's Fleet and in June selected Savin Hill
      as the site for their settlement. At the time it was known as
      Mattapanock but they named it Dorchester, probably from their native
      county of Dorchester,England as most were from there. George was on
      Jury duty as early as September, 1630; and became a freeman in 1631.
      George became Constable in 1632 in Dorchester and was a grantee of
      Dorchester lands in April, 1633. He and his wife, Abigail, signed the
      church covenant anew in 1636. He died in Dorchester in 1672 at the
      age of 93 years.
