Vol 3 "History of Salem Massachusetts" by Sidney Perley lists on page
225 the following:

Oliver Elkins probably removed to Marblehead, where he died in 1722; 
children: 1. Mary, baptised April 1687; married John Lightfoot 11 Oct. 
1722, in Marblehead; 2. Thomas, born Sept. 30, 1689; lived in Marblehead; 
married Elizabeth Gale Jan, 16, 1718; had children; 3. Sarah; married 
William Peach of Marblehead Jan. 4, 1710-1; 4. John; living in 1723; 5. 
Elizabeth; living in 1723; 6. Robert, baptised May 3, 1696.  There are 
other Elkins listed; Thomas with issue and Thomas (son of) also with issue; 
they don't seem to be connected with Oliver unless he was brother to first 
Thomas.  The only other Peach mentioned is William on page 421 "warrant to 
constable William Herst, for collection of country rate, dated Nov. 23, 
1683".
