Notes:
-Named in father's Robert's will. In the probate proceedings, his son
Robert is given a guardianship, and it is mentioned that Robert was
deceased, lately a resident of South Carolina.
- Robert Blood unusually did not gow up within the boundaries of any
town. He grew up with his parents and siblings on "Blood's farm" which
was outside the borders of Concord, Massachusetts. Because of this,
there were many disputes about tax payments and responsibilities between
the Blood's and the town and church officials
-"The Story of the Bloods" says that his wife Dorcas "appears to be an
unrecorded daughter of Thomas and Hannah Harwood Wheeler"
