| Notes |
- From the Town of Kittery, Christopher Mitchell had the following grants of land at Braveboat Harbor: "20 acres, May 16, 1694, adjoining his father's land on the west;" "10 acres, Nov. 25, 1697 . . . bounded on the South with ye Creek that goes to Braveboat Harbour;" "30 acres," May 24, 1699; "28 acres" that "takes its beginning at Braveboat harbour Creek," on April 26, 1701; and "50 acres more at Braveboat Harbor," on June 17, 1703. That year, 1703, Christopher Mitchell was called a shipwright, of Kittery; but later, he was mentioned as a husbandman, or yeoman. In the tax list of Kittery, 1712, "Christr Mitchell" was taxed œ2:10.
On October 29, 1726, he purchased of Samuel Jordan, of Kittery, "60 acres of land in Parpuduck in Falmouth . . . near Slews Cove at the Brook's [mouth];"XXX he soon after removed there. At "Perpuduck" he was tithingman, in 1729-30; sealer of leather; constable; surveyor of hemp and flax; surveyor of highways, and a fence-viewer. "Christopher Mitchel of Falmouth Husbandman & Ellener Mitchel his wife" united with the other heirs of Thomas Larrabee in the conveyance of "one moiety or Half Part of a Ten Acre Lot in North Yarmouth . . . No. 32," which "was laid out to the Heirs of Thomas Larraby late of Scarborough Deceased."º This was in 1731; three years later, Christopher Mitchell appeared as a resident of Kittery, when he sold his right in his "Deceased Father's Christopher Mitchell's Portion of the Common Land of Kittery." His will, dated June 8, 1739, and signed with his mark, was proved Oct. 18, 1743. He gave ten shillings to each of his daughters; to his wife Sarah, all "moueables as Chattels Creatures etc, as also what money is Due from a Bond from my Son Samuel Mitchell," one half of which Samuel was to retain, the other half was to be given to his mother.
