    Notes:

    Robert Tucker, born in 1604, played a significant role in the early colonial history of Massachusetts. He initially settled in Weymouth around 1635 and later moved to Gloucester, where he held the office of Town Clerk and served as a Representative to the General Court in 1651 and 1652. It's likely that some of his children were born during his time in Gloucester. After returning to Weymouth, Tucker held several important positions, contributing significantly to the town's governance and development.

    In 1662, coinciding with the incorporation of Milton, Massachusetts, Tucker relocated there. He purchased about 117 acres on Brush Hill, adjacent to land owned by his son James. This area, known for its beauty, became a prominent residential area in Greater Boston. As Milton's Town Clerk, Tucker's handwriting filled the town's earliest records, indicating his role as the first Town Recorder. He was also a representative in the General Court for Milton in 1669, 1680, and 1681.

    Robert Tucker was deeply involved in religious affairs, being an active member of the Congregational Church. He and his wife, Elizabeth Allen, raised a large family with all children having Biblical names. They were known for establishing Christian homes. Tucker was instrumental in engaging Rev. Peter Thatcher as the Pastor of the Milton Church, with whom he shared a respectful and affectionate relationship.

    Robert Tucker passed away on March 11, 1682, leaving behind a legacy of public service and religious commitment. His will, made shortly before his death, bequeathed his new house and adjoining land to his son Manasseh. This house, built around 1681, is one of the oldest in Massachusetts. Tucker's contributions to his community were significant, and his descendants, including notable figures in various fields, have continued to impact the country. His death was a notable event in the town, and he was remembered as a respected and influential figure in both the town and the church. He and Elizabeth were parents to 11 children and had 18 grandchildren at the time of his death. His character, education, and handwriting were noted for reflecting his status as a gentleman well-versed in administrative matters.

    Purchased several adjoining lots on Brush Hill totaling 117 acres
