• Name	John PETERSON
  Born	Abt 1636
  Gender	Male
  Died	Abt 1719	Duxbury, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA
  Notes	”John Peterson, an early settler in Duxbury, married, before 1665, Mary Soule, born before 1650, daughter of George (who came in the Mayflower in 1620) and Mary of Duxbury. He died between 29 Apr. 1718, (the date of his will) and 26 Mar. 1720 (the date of the inventory of his estate), and was probably buried on his farm in Duxbury, perhaps at the spot where in recent excavating an ancient burial place has been discovered. His farm was on Powder Point, and was purchased of his father-in-law, George Soule, who in a deposition dated 27 Oct. 1674, stated that it had been his homestead farm. This farm, on which both George Soule and John Peterson in turn lived, remained in the possession of their descendants almost to the present day; for although the male line of descendants of Isaac Peterson, in which his father, John Peterson, evidently intended the farm to remain (his will stating that it should descend to the male heirs of Isaac) failed immediately, the ownership of the land has until very recently remained in the line descended from Isaac’s daughter, Priscilla Weston.”«s22»
