I know it looks like John Gifford's signature is further down in the
list, but that one belongs to John *Gillow*. See Savage's
_Genealogical Dictionary_:

GILLOW, BENJAMIN, Lynn 1637, s. of John. JOHN, Lynn 1637, had Benjamin,
John, and perhaps more ch. He is, perhaps, the cow-keeper, of wh. good
story is told in Winthrop I. 274. JOHN, Lynn, s. of the preced. m. 7
Apr. 1666, Sarah Keyzer, had John, b. 6 Jan. 1667; Mary; Sarah, 2 Oct.
1670; and Robert, 20 Apr. 1673, posthum. for the f. d. two mos. preced.
His will of 20 Feb. pro. 27 June 1673, ment. w. three ch. by names, and
the expect. one. THOMAS, Lynn 1639, perhaps br. of the preced. Lewis.

Nat Taylor can verify that Gifford's signature was much different.
Gifford was probably back in England in 1643 (or at least still with
Gen. Edward Gibbons in Boston).
