Captain William Russell (1686-1731)

Here’s our first cousin (10R) Captain William Russell “of Cambridge Farms” (later Lexington). He and his wife Mary (per gravestone; some sources¹ call her “Elizabeth”) lie near his parents, Philip and Iohana, in the Old Lexington Burial Ground.

Paige¹ says that he “…res. at the Farms, and had a deed of the homestead 1722 (subject to the life estate of his father), which he conveyed to his son Nathaniel….”
