• Notes

  William and Grace had five sons: remained on the family land in Portsmouth. Hugh (1654-1724), sixteen years old when his father died in 1670, was taken into the custody of his grandfather, Hugh Parsons.  The elder Parsons left Hugh all of his land, house, belongs, a bequest that left his mother Grace without means of support and likely led to her situation as a reluctant wife inher second marriage.  Hugh married twice with 8 children from his first marriage and died soon after his second marriage in East Greenwich on land given to him by his grandfather Parsons. He is buried in the Hugh Bailey Lot on his land.  Hugh also died without a will leaving  young children who were appointed guardians by the town. Stephen Bailey (1665-1724) married Susanna, both buried in Newport Cemetery. Joseph Bailey, lived in Newport, no other information. Edward Bailey ( -1712), married, had 4 children and lived in Newport and Tiverton.
