Husband of Freedom Kingsley (1636-1689) whom he married in 1654.

Believed buried Bridge Street Cem., Northhampton, Hampshire, Mass., with wife Freedom Kingsley (many markers illegible or missing).
From John William Linzee, quoting parish register in Ipswich, MA :
"Vii. John, bapt. 26 May 1622 Assington, Co. Suff., England
(Par. Reg.), as John sonne of Thomas and Susan Ffrench; d. 1 Feb. 1697 Northampton*, Mass., as John French; m. Freedom Kingsley about 1654; dau. of John and 1st wife Elizabeth ( ) Kingsley of Dorchester, and Rehcboth, Mass.; b. about 1630 England; d. 26 July 1689 Northampton', as Freedom French. "
Correction & Notes: Rehoboth, not Rehcboth, where Freedom's father lived. John & Freedom followed Enos Kingsley of Dorchester to Northampton, after raising children in Ipswich and selling land there. Only dates given precisely are the deaths in Northampton, with a surviving sibling or child of John's possibly giving dates after John's death, perhaps uessing the remainder, trying to make records complete for estate purposes.
