Notes:
In 1695, Elder William Pratt organized a church in Dorchester, Massachusetts, and soon after went to South Carolina to plant his church there as a missionary colony. In his diary he records a very hospitable reception by Lady Axtell, widow of Landgrae Daniel Axtell, who went from England to South Carolina about 1680. Probably Daniel Axtell of Massachusetts accompianied Mr. Pratt on one of his earlier voages to South Carolina. May 12, 1702, he married Thankful, the daugheter of Elder Pratt, and lived in SC until about 1707, when he returned to MA and settled in "tht part of bridgewater that afterward became Abbington". He bought one-half of the "Briggs Grant".
