Memorials of the Dead in Boston, King's Chapel, pg 208, by Thomas Bridgman (1853): "The original place of sepulture, however, of the Sewalls, in Boston, was not the " King's Chapel," but the Granary Burying-ground. In the latter sacred enclosure is a tomb, the sepulchre of four generations of the ancestors of the Sewalls, as well as of sundry revered friends and relatives of the family, of another name ; as, Hon. John Hull, Esq., master of the mint, 1652, and for whom the tomb was built, and Judith, his wife, a sister of Lieut.-Col. Edmund Quincy, Esq., of Braintree, now Quincy ; the first Chief-justice Sewall, above named, their son-in-law, and Hannah, his wife ; Rev. William Cooper, of Brattle-street church [Cambridge], and Grove Hirst, Esq., merchant, of Boston, sons-in-law of Judge Sewall, and their respective wives ; Mr. Daniel Quincy, son of the above Lieut.-Col. Quincy, by his first wife, and father of Hon. John Quincy, of Braintree, who was great-grandfather of the late President John Quincy Adams; and Rev. Joshua Moodey, of Portsmouth, some time assistant minister of First Church, Boston, who, dying while at Boston, on a visit, was buried in this tomb."
