Bond’s Watertown422 provides this account of Lawrence Waters (with square brackets in the original): “LAWRENCE WATERS, a carpenter; proprietor, 1636-7; m. ANNA, dr. of Richard Linton. [See Linton.] He was one of the early proprietors of Lancaster (1653), where he resided, Mar. 13, 1669-70, and where probably his youngest 4 chil. were born. June 1, 1655, he (then of Lancaster) sold to Robert Harrington, three parcels of land in Wat., amounting to 129 acres, ‘with all my town right due me in Watertown,’ &c.; deed signed Jan 17, 1668-9. [See Worcester Mag. II, 280 and 282.]” A list of his children follows.

Misc. Notes
Bond’s Watertown423 says that Anna Linton “m. Lawrence Waters, q.v., Sept., 1645” but this cannot be correct as their several children were born beginning in 1635422 Perhaps it is an error for 1635.
