Excerpt from History of the Town of Lexington, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, From Its First Settlement to 1868: With a Genealogical Register of Lexington Families There is also a general defect in records, arising from the brevity of the entries. 1when an event is recent, and the details are fresh in the memory of the people, a concise memorandum may apparently answer the purpose.
