...Not far distant from the Harnden home,-in what is now North Reading, dwelt the family of Francis and Sarah Nurse. Francis was the son of Rebecca Nurse, a woman executed as a witch in Salem. The-youngest in that family was Jonathan. He and Abigail were married in 1713, after which he lived for only four years.

On May 8, 1720 Abigail Nurse married Daniel Eames, the son of Samuel, a man born in Woburn. They became the ancestors of many members of the Eames family in Wilmington. Their home was the present home of Mrs. Wolff, across from Wildwood Street, on the ancient Andover Road, 504 Woburn Street.
