I Louisa Drake, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, wife of Samuel G. Drake, who is the grandson of Rev. John Tuck, do upon oath say that the original Ecclesiastical Records of the Parish in Epsom in the State of New Hampshire over which the said John Tuck was pastor are now in the custody and possession of my husband and have been for the past four years; that the said records have the appearance of being genuine and are believed by me to be genuine and that the following entry in the handwriting of the said John Tuck is found, viz. "1773 March 4th Isaac Knowles & Prudence Locke were joined in marriage"
I have reason to believe that these records are authentic from the fact they were given to my husband my his father, now deceased, who received them after the death of the said John Tuck and retained them in his possession until his own death when they came into the possession of my husband, the said Samuel G. Drake.
