    Notes:

    From FindaGrave:

    Deborah Howland, dau. of Arthur Howland and his first wife Grace, b. circa 1630 probably in or near the parish of St. Giles Cripplegate, London, England.[*1] One writing claims she d. in Dartmouth, Mass. Oct. 16, 1665, but no primary record can be located to confirm this date. She did, however, die before the middle of 1666 when her husband married his second wife. Deborah is assumed to be interred at the Smith Family Burial Ground at Dartmouth, Mass.

    On Jan. 4, 1648/9 of record at Plymouth, Mass., Deborah m. John Smith, called John Smith, Jr. in the Plymouth records for being the younger of two unrelated John Smiths who resided at Plymouth at the same time. They had the following four children b. of record at Plymouth, Mass.:

    • i. Hasadiah Smith, b. Jan. 11, 1649/50, d. at Dartmouth, Mass. Dec. 15, 1723, Æ 74; on Jan. 10, 1693/4 she and husband Jonathan Russell gave brother Deliverance their receipt for her legacy from her father's estate; m. Feb. 5, 1678/9 at Dartmouth, Jonathan Russell, s. of John & Dorothy Russell, b. circa 1648 at Marshfield, Mass. He d. at Dartmouth Dec. 5, 1727. Five children of the family. Jonathan and Hasadiah are ancestors of British statesman Sir Winston Churchill.

    • ii. John Smith, Jr., b. Oct. 1, 1651, d. after Mar. 15, 1692, but there is no known record of marriage or children.

    • iii. Eleazer Smith, b. Apr. 20, 1654, d. testate before July 4, 1733; m. Aug. 12, 1680 at Dartmouth, Mass., Ruth Sprague, dau. of John Sprague & Ruth Bassett, b. Feb. 12, 1658/9 at Marshfield, Mass. She d. after July 4, 1733. Seven children of the family.

    • iv. Hezekiah Smith, b. Nov. 28, 1655, d. testate Feb. 28, 1726/7 at Dartmouth, Mass., Æ 72; m. circa 1681 an unknown Mary, who d. at Dartmouth in 1737. Eleven children of the family.

    All four of the above children were left legacies in the July 4, 1674 will of their maternal grandfather, Arthur Howland of Marshfield, Mass.:

    • Item. I give and bequeath unto my grandchild Amadiah [sic, Hasadiah] Smith the full sum of five pounds to be paid by the friends, executors, administrators and assigns of my dear wife Mary Howland immediately after her decease.
    • Item. I give and bequeath unto the three brothers of the said Amadiah (sic) the sum of five pounds to be equally divided among them.

    Deborah Howland and John Smith had no son named Josiah (alternately called Joseph), as claimed by the Kirby Genealogy (1898). The Josiah Smith b. of record at Plymouth, MA April 16, 1652 to "John Smith" was not Deborah and John's son. See Robert S. Wakefield and Robert M. Sherman: "Arthur Howland of Plymouth, Mass., 1640, His Wife Margaret (--) Walker, and Their Children" (NGSQ, 71[1983]:86).
