Henry Adams of Braintree, called thus because he was one
of the earliest or first settlers in that part of the Massachusetts
Bay designated " Mt. Wollaston," which was incorporated in 1640
as the town of Braintree. It included what is now Quincy,
Braintree and Randolph, Mass.
He is believed to have arrived in Boston with his wife,
eight sons and a daughter, in 1632 or 1633. The colonial
authorities at Boston allotted to him 40 acres of land at "the
Mount," for the ten persons in his family, Feb. 24, 1639-40.
The name of his wife is not known, nor where and when she
died. It has been believed that she returned to England with
her son John and daughter Ursula, and died there, which appears
not improbable. Henry Adams died in Braintree, Oct. 6, 1646,
and was buried on the 8th.
