Treasure Chest Thursday: 1674 Marriage of John Richards and Mary Bruer in Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony

 It's Treasure Chest Thursday - an opportunity to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history research and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1674 marriage record of John Richards and Mary Bruer in the Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony vital records book:


The snippet for the John Richards and Mary Bruer marriage:


The extracted information for this marriage record is:

"[RICHARDS] John, and Mary Bruer, Nov. 18, 1674."

The source citation for this record is:

Vital Records of Lynn, Massachusetts to the end of the Year 1849 (Salem, Mass. : The Essex Institute, 1906), 2 Volumes, Marriages, page 327, John Richards and Mary Bruer marriage entry, 18 November 1674.

This is a Derivative Source record, with Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the death date and place of Sarah Richards.  This book was compiled from original handwritten and/or copied Lynn town records by the book's authors.

John Richards (1644-1713) was born about 1644 in Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colo9ny, the son of Edward and Susanna (--?--) Richards.  Mary Brewer (1653-1706) was born about 1653 in Bosaton, Massachusetts Bay Colony, the daughter of Crispus and Mary (--?--) Brewer.  

John and Mary (Brewer) Richards are my 8th great-grandparents through Crispus Richards (1681-1763) who married Sarah Collins (1678-1757) in 1702.
