• Notes

  Came with his father (Jonathan Fairebanke Sr.) from England on 23 March 1636/1637 and resided in Dedham until about 1657, when he removed to the southern part of Sherborn (afterward Medway, now Millis). He was the first settler there, and was an esteemed citizen and one of the selectmen, and a member of the Artillery Company (Ancient and Honorable). He was drowned January 10, 1682.
