1. NICHOLAS NORRIS is thought to have been born about 1640, but whether in this country or elsewhere is unknown, as the earliest record thus far found of him is dated "ye 11th. mo. 21st. day, 1663" (Jan. 21, 1664) at which time he married Sarah, dau. of Moses and Alice Coxe of Hampton, N. H. On Sept. 29, 1666.

He deeded away his "house lott, three acres more or less, with my dwelling-house being and standing upon ye same," together with six acres of "planting land in ye north field," and removed to Exeter, N. H., where in the following year he took the oath of allegiance.

In 1676 he served as a soldier in King Philip's war.

In 1681, 100 acres of land were laid out to him by the town of Exeter.

In 1690 he desired the jurisdiction of Massachusetts.

Aug. 3 to Aug. 31, 1696, he was a soldier in garrison under Kinsley Hall.

In 1698 he was granted 3 acres; in 1705, 20 acres; and in 1720-21, 10 acres, the last on the "north side of a masteway leading from Col. Hilton's to Pawtuckawaye Mills." His house stood near Meeting-house hill in Exeter Village.

In 1725 he was granted 30 additional acres which is the last reference to him found upon any record. It is probable that he died soon after this date.
