    Notes 
    • Robert Page, the first of the name in Hampton, was a son of Robert and Margaret Page, of Ormsby, in the county of Norfolk, England, where he was born about 1604. His wife's name was Lucy. The record of their examination, April 11, 1637, preparatory to leaving England, gives his age as thirty-three years, and hers as thirty years. They, with three children, "Francis, Margarett and Susanna, and tow servants, William Moulton aged 20 years adn Anne Wadd, 15th years, were desirous to passe into New England to in habitt." He settled in Hampton in 1639, having received a grant of ten acres of land for a house lot, lying between the house lots of William Marston, on the west, and Robert Marston, on the east, abutting on the Meeting house Green on the south, and other land of his, on the north. This is still the home of the daughters of Josiah Page, a descendant, of the sixth generation.

      Goodman Page was one of the selectmen six years. He represented the town in the General Court of Massachusetts. He was also a member of various committees raised by the town from time to time. In 1660, we find him one of the deacons of the church, and from the death of his colleague in 1671, to his own death, he appears to have been the only deacon. He died Sept. 22, 1679, aged seventy-five. Lucy, his wife, died Nov. 12, 1665, aged fifty-eight.
