Hudson, History of the Town of Marlborough (1862), p. 110: the second half of the list assigning Marlborough families to its twenty-six garrisons (nos. 13 to 26). No. 23, Simon Maynard's Garrison, names Adam Holloway, Benjamin Whitney, Joseph Newton, John Keyes and Abiel Bush. Households of the name Rice appear in nos. 13, 15, 17, 19 and 20. A paragraph at the foot begins a note on where the garrisons stood.

How it is shown: Complete page as supplied; no crop, no retouch, no search highlight.

Keep in mind: What the page says: Confirmed: Adam Holloway is listed in garrison no. 23 as stated. The page carries no date; it continues the list begun on p. 109, which Hudson compiled from the committee's assignment of families, and it is a different document from the dated muster of 18 March 1691/2 printed in the Register (vol. 43, p. 372). Nathaniel Oakes is named on p. 109, not on this page. Whether this is our person: Likely, not Confirmed, that this is the tree's Adam Holloway (born about 1653-54, died June 1733 at Northborough), husband of Hannah Hayward: the name and the town fit, but the page gives no age or family. The tree also carries a later Adam Holloway at Westborough, who cannot be ruled out. Hannah Hayward Holloway and Mary Holloway are not named on this page. The Rice names on the page are not tied to anyone in the tree.
