Dudley Boylston was a son of Thomas Boylston, and a brother of Zabdiel Boylston. He was born about 1688, and married Elizabeth Gardner of this town. He was the town constable for some time, and an old military commission issued in the time of Francis Bernard, Captain-general and Governor-in-chief, indicates his rank as "first adjutant of the first regiment, whereof Jeremy Gridley is 'Colonel." H. F. W., p. 346.
