Narrative

tanner,Watertown,c1706.
John Mirick was a tanner by trade; he was admitted Freeman of Watertown July 21,1685. Bond, in history of Watertown, says that John Mirick, of Newton, was killed by Indians in Groton, Mass. July 21, 1706. Paige, in history of Cambridge, says that John Mirick was a soldier. Both of these references may have been to another John, but may have referred to this one. His will, dated April 29, 1706, says: "Being weak in body, under a languishing sickness," ...He may have been killed by Indians at that date, as claimed by Bond, but he probably died at home, in his bed.
