Looking at two Nicholas Davis men who belonged to the Sandwich Mtg.

"Quakers had been spreading elsewhere on the South Shore during these years. Nicholas Davis, early Sandwich Quaker who had been imprisoned in Boston for three months in 1659 for his faith, returned home to become the first settler of Hyannis."

and (this one) who died in 1755:
"Nicholas Davis was an able and highly esteemed minister. He lived at Rochester, and consequently after 1740 his membership was in Sandwich monthly meeting, to which meeting he belonged at his death in 1755"
