Felt Genealogy, a Record of The Descendants of George Felt of Casco Bay by John e. Morris, 1893

George Felt is found in Charlestown, Mass., in 1633. He was born in 1601, and tradition relates that he came to America with Endicott.

We have the testimony of George Felt himself that the year of his advent in this town was that already named, for in 1681 he describes himself as about 80 years of age, and testifies 'that the town of Charlestown gave him an house plott of two acres of land lying in the common on the left hand as you go to Cambridge betweixt the ground that was Rice Morrisses and goble's, which is now in the hands of thomas Welch Senr, which plott was given him about forty-eight years since.'

The wife of George Felt was Elizabeth, daughter of widow Prudence Wilkinson, whose home in Charlestown was on the south side of Mill Hill, nearly adjoinibng that of her son-in-law.

Widow Prudence Wilinson in her will, dated, "1655, 11:Mo: 9, day," names her son John and her daughter Eiza Felt.
