Elias Trask, His Children and Their Succeeding Race
William Trask (1589-1666) emigrated from England to Cape Ann, Massachusetts in 1624. In 1627, he moved to Naumkeg (later named Salem). He and his wife, Sarah, had seven children. One descendant, Elias, (1707-1780) moved to Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia about 1760. He married Mary Bolter, daughter of Thomas Bolter and Rebecca Thayer. They had four children. Mary died in 1743.
