Notes
a. Note:   N2260 Administrator of his father's estate.
  In a deed date 5 Aug 1702 William Dam and wife Martha gave to their son Pomfret Dam the island commonly known as Goat Island. This island was one of the points to which was connected the old bridge across Great Bay from Fox's Point to Madbury. In 1724 Pomfret Dam also received lands formerly belonging to his grandfather Lt William Pomfret.
  There are no records of the names of the children or the dates of their births. Mention of the oldest son is found in "Probate Records of the Province of New Hampshire," vol 2 pp 334-335, where is given the appraisal of Pomfret Dam's real estate by Paul Wentworth, Thomas Wallingford and Robert Evans; and it was "Allowed the last Wednesday in June 1736 and ordered that the oldest son Samuel Dam have two thirds of the estate and pay the other children their shares." The value of the state turned over to Samuel Dam was £698 17s. 8d.
