Nathaniel Cary was the son of James and Elizabeth Cary of Charlestown, and was
born in 1645. He married Elizabeth, whose surname is unknown, and who died
August 30, 1722. Their daughter, Elizabeth, was born in 1676, and married
Edward, son of John and Elizabeth (Shove) Mills, who was born June 29, 1665,
graduated at Harvard college in 16 8 5, and died in 17 32; his only son, Edward,
died in the same year. In the will of Edward Mills, dated May 24, i 732, and proved
June i, 17 3 3, is an item bequeathing his " silver salver " to John Merritt, who was
a vestryman of King's Chapel. This piece was doubtless given to the chapel in i7 9 8

First church at Medford, though the exact connexion, if any, between the two
pieces cannot be traced.
