BARKER

  JOSEPH BARKER and his wife Ruth - - were called, in the will of Dorothy (Hunt) King of Weymouth, made 14 June, 1652, "my
son" and "my daughter," the former being made executor of said will. The testator was the wife of John King, seaman, of Weymouth, and formerly the wife of Enoch Hunt of Weymouth, 1639 to 1647. The testator had a daurhter, Sarah Hunt, born at Weymouth, 4 July, 1640, unmarried on 14 Julie, 1652, and another daughter called Susannah Heath on the last-named date. It is evident that Susannah Heath was, on 14 July, 1652, the wife of Peleg Heath of Roxbury. Children of Pclc,, and Susannah Heath, born and baptized at Roxbury, were Susannah, bp. 5 Dec. 1652; Hannah, b. 23 Dec. 1654; Abigail, b. 10 Oct. 1658; Joseph, b. 23 and bp. 30 Dec. 1660, d. in a few days; Mehitable, b. 7 Feb. and bp. 9 Mar. 1662; William, b. 30 Jan., and bp. 6 Mar. 1664; Joseph, 2d, b. 6, and bp. 16 Sept. 1666, d. 1674; Peleg, b. 18 Sept., and bp. 22 Nov. 1668; Dorothy, b. 18 Dec. 1670.

Was Dorothy (Hunt-King) the mother of Joseph Barker or of Ruth, his wife?

Dorothy Barker was admitted to the First Church of Dorchester before 4 Nov. 1639. (See Register, 5: 239.) She was probably the
mother of Joseph Barker, and three times a widow.
