Robert Carver and Some of His Descendants [Jan.
He left Marshfield orobably about 1778 (when his father, Cant. Caleb* Carver (No. 37), was banished as a Loyalist), and joined his relatives at South Fox Island, later Vinalhaven, where his cattle mark was entered 12 Apr. 1794 and the births of all his children are recorded. Much of the following account of his family and descendants is based on a statement made by his granddaughter, Mrs. Mary (Carver) Colcord, which in 1933 was in the possession of her granddaughter, Miss Joanna C. Colcord of Mount Vernon, N. Y.
