     George Black was born circa 1802, in MA.2 He married Polly Sargent, daughter of Asa Sargent and Polly Ball, on Wednesday, 26 March 1828 in Oxford, MA.1,3 George Black was a laborer.4 He was a fireman. I assume it means a fireman within a factory - probably a mill, as there were many families in the neighborhood who were weavers and spinners.2

Dates using 'say' are educated guesses by me.
If I don't know a female last name she will be identified with a 'Mrs' and her husband's name.
MALE or FEMALE means I don't know the first name.
