Jennison of Massachusetts

My Jennison line is from England and they settled in Watertown, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts before 1637. This is a recently discovered line, and I'm happy to add this family to my tree. As in the past, my direct lines are in All Caps. I will be glad to share what I used as sources.

Note: This was revised on July 24, 2015, from my April 2015 posting, since I added eight new names and used quite a number of new sources.
