[4956] "Daniel Shed Genealogy"
Frank E. Shedd
Shedd Family Association
Boston, MA 1921
p45: "To summarize in brief our knowledge of the life of our first ancestor
as conveyed by the records and by inference we may say that he was born probably
between 1620 and 1625 in England whence he came as a youth or a young man perhaps
just of age to make a home for himself in America. He landed about 1643, probably
at Boston, being then unmarried, but about 1646 acquired a wife at Braintree where
they had seven children. She died in 1658-9, and a few months later he married a
second wife and settled in Billerica, Mass., where he had four more children and
died 27 July 1708, probably aged about eighty-eight years. He married first, about
1646, Mary ----; she had seven shildren and died either late in 1658 or early in 1659.
He married secondly, in 1659, Elizabeth ----, whose parentage is unknown; she had
four children and died in Billerica, 17 Jan. 1699/1700."
