This may help.

The records of Wareham MA state: "In 1734, on the petition of 'Sundry
Bumpasses', Rochester consented to set off its east end to be an Aguam
Plantation in the composition of the new town".

Google Earth shows Kingston and Wareham separated by 28.7 miles by today's
roads.

In the Pane-Joyce Genealogy it stares that Richard Adams was born in January
1718 or 19 in Plymouth MA and died in August of 1795 in Cushing ME,
occupation blacksmith. Also that he married Mary Carver in 1744. She died in
1806 in Cushing ME.

The research of Susan Syquia has all the children of Richard Carver and Mary
Carver, who married in 1744, as being born in Kingston MA from 1745 to 1769.

Keep in mind that I have not confirmed the Pane-Joyce and Susan Syquia
creations. I have confirmed the history of Wareham CT I mentioned.

Good luck
Marlow
