• Notes

  Note: Some genealogical records show George and Comfort (Knowlton) Haskell born and living in Hardwick, Worcester, Massachusetts. Other records show Greenwich, Hampshire, Massachusetts. Hardwick and Greenwich were neighboring towns. Land, previously part of Hardwick, was transferred to Greenwich in 1765. Greenwich no longer exists, being submerged by the development of the Quabbin Reservoir in 1938.
