Notes:
-The definitive book, "A Book of Strattons" lists Hezekiah's wife's name as Dorothy Hubbard, with no furthur comment. This is an error. There is a marriage record of Hezekiah Stratton to Dorothy Hoar in the sudbury records, and none to Dorothy Hubbard. In NEHGR 125:65, notes on the probate of John Hoar 1767, father of Dorothy Hoar, list Hezekiah Stratton in the probate processings. Dorothy Hoar had siblings including: Nehemiah, Josiah, Mary, which were all used as names of their children. Two of their children were named after themselves, and the names used, Jonathan, Jane, Sarah, were all names of Hezekiah's siblings.
