Grivell one of the judges of the Common Pleas, and of Sir Giles Grivell Kt. both long since deceased." When Fuller wrote his "Worthies of England," most of Edward Palmer's children were dead, and his daughter Muriel Rutter is spoken of in that book as one who "inheriting her father's parts and piety, left a perfumed memory to all the neighborhood."

Wood tells us that Palmer's collections, "coming into the hands of such persons who understood them not, were therefore, as I have heard, embezzled and in a manner lost. He had also a curious collection of coins and subterranean antiquities which are also embezzled."

He gave by deed of gift land to his son Noah, dated May 8, 1695; also a deed of gift to son Samuel of one hundred and fifty acres of land and dwelling house about three miles northwest from the town of Providence, on both sides of the Moshassuc river, dated Nov. 25, 1706.
