Narrative

Fennel evidently lived on land owned by Captain John Whipple,Sr., who mentioned in his will dated 26 September 1683 "land inye tenure of Fennell Ross.Of the three Ross families, that of Fennel Ross has been themost difficult to follow after his death. The debts against hisestate slightly exceeded the assets, leaving nothing to bedistributed. This probably explains the lack of any guardianshipfor children whose ages ranged from seven to nineteen. Due tothe similarity of the given names with the children of John Rossand Killicress Ross, it is often mere speculation to try toidentify a name in a court record. Although there is no birthrecord for her, the daughter Lydia is included here because hermarriage occurred in Haverhill where this family was the onlyRoss family living at the time, and because on 30 December 1730,when Lydia Ford of Haverhill, widow, sold "a small log house" inHaverhill, Mary "Rose" (evidently her sister) joined in thedeed.
