Notes

From "Three Generations of the Sumner Family" Holman, TAG V19:

"William Sumner and his family ... came to New England in 1634. In 1636, he was chosen one of the twenty men to order the town's affairs; and from that time on for many years, his name constantly appears in the records of the town as holding positions of trust, he being a selectman for 23 years, a rater of taxes for 5 years, and a Commissioner of end small causes (i.e., a Justice of the Peace) for 9 years."
