George Watson

M, b. circa 1602, d. 31 January 1688/89
Relationship11th great-grandfather of Pamela Joyce Wood
     George Watson was born circa 1602 at England. He married Phebe Hicks, daughter of Robert Hicks and Margaret (?), circa 1635 at Plymouth Co, Massachusetts. George Watson died on 31 January 1688/89 at Plymouth, Plymouth Co, Massachusetts.
     George Watson first resided at Penobscot, where on 19 July 1631 he testified regarding the activities of Edward Ashley.
On 1 May 1660 George Watson petitioned the court in behalf of "his son John Watson and his nephew John Banges" that Samuel Hickes was entered in error as the purchaser of their land, when Mr. Robert Hickes should have been entered [PCR 3:186].
Phoebe and Mary are included as daughters of George Watson because there was no other Watson family in Plymouth at this time, the chronology is right, and Phoebe would have been named for her mother.
On 6 March 1665/6 George Watson was granted administration on the estate of Mrs. Margarett Hickes, deceased [PCR 4:117].1
