William Curtis - Last Will and Testament
I found a referece to Gamblin End in the previous street listing book, so I took a chance and Google'd it. Sure enough, I found this reference in another online book, Suffolk Deeds By Suffolk County (Mass.) 1896, by John Tyler Hassam. Remarkably, it's a will written for Wiliam Curtis (as in the Curtis Hall family) in 1669. With enough of these, a loose map could be produced of present day Jamaica Plain in colonial times.
