291 "Abraham Dennis's Marriage?
This marriage had plainly occurred the same day, while the
Doctor was officiating at Conanicut. It is not recorded in the
Narragansett Parish Register, no entries having been made
in it during the summer and autumn of 1745. Dennis was a
Portsmouth and Newport name, it being recorded that, about
that time, Capt. John Dennis drew a half of a pew in Trinity Church, in the latter town.
292 " Samuel Mumford."
Eldest son of Benjamin Mumford, born January 20, 1723.
(Note 53.) He was married by Dr. MacSparran, October 25,
1750, to Elizabeth Goddard, "the Banns of Marriage duly
asked, sans objection? In 1757, the last year of the Doctor's
life, he baptized a child of Samuel and Elizabeth Mumford,
by the name of Elizabeth.
293 "Sam Gardiner's Horse."
Samuel Gardiner was a son of Ephraim and Penelope Gardiner and was born January 16, 1719-20. It is recorded in the
Narragansett Register that Mr. John Gardiner was married,
December 13, 1772, to Miss Sarah Gardiner, eldest daughter of Capt. Samuel Gardiner. "The bride was given away
by her father about half an hour after four o'clock, in the
presence of sundry witnesses." It is probable that these two
Samuels were identical.
294 "Went to Tho!. Phillips's."
Thomas Phillips was the eldest son of Samuel Phillips, who
died in 1736, aged eighty-one, and is believed to have been
the first of the family in North Kingstown. Thomas and his
brother Christopher (Note 169) were among Doctor MacSparran's strongest friends, being often mentioned in this
Diary and the Narragansett Parish Register. The Phillips
family was one ofthe main pillars of S. Paul's Church, giving
it a warden and a vestryman, in the persons of Samuel and
his son Thomas, as early as 1718, three years before the arrival
of Mr. MacSparran. There formerly stood, in the north-eastern part of the village of Wickford, a fine old house, the residence ofthe Hon. Peter Phillips (born 1731, died 1807), a
