  2. 3.  Dorcas Seabury was born 9 Jan 1747/48, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI (daughter of Sion Seabury and Anna Butts).

    Notes:

    Dorcas is mentioned as a daughter in the will of Sion Seabury dated 21 Sep 1793 at Tiverton, RI. I am not sure if she is his daughter by his first wife, Anna, or by his second wife, Dorcas. I had placed her as a daughter of Dorcas, pending further research; but an early membership lineage from RI Society of Mayflower Descendants has her as d/o Anna.

  1. 4.  Cornelius Soule was born 26 Jan 1711/12, Dartmouth, MA (son of Nathan Soule and Mary Gifford); died Abt 1780, Tiverton, RI.

    Notes:

    In her mother's will of 1743, Sarah is mentioned as Sarah Soule.

  3. 6.  Sion Seabury was born 27 Mar 1713, Little Compton, Newport Co., RI (son of Joseph Seabury and Phebe Smith); died 10 Aug 1801, Tiverton, Newport Co., RI.

    Notes:

    The will of Sion Seabury, dated 21 Sep 1793 and proved 15 Aug 1801 at Tiverton, RI, mentions his (assumed second) wife Dorcas (and the possessions she brought when she married him); also mentions sons Aaron, Philip, & Joseph; daughters Dorcas (w/o Abner Sowle) and Alice (single); grandchildren John, Peleg, David, Cornelius, Peirce, George, Job, and Mary.

    I am not sure when Sion's first wife died and when he married Dorcas; consequently I am not sure if daughter Dorcas is from his first or second marriage. This needs more research. For the time being I have placed the daughter Dorcas as from a second marriage, with the assumption that Anna died shortly after their fourth child was born.

    Sion married Anna Butts 17 May 1733, Portsmouth, Newport Co., RI. Anna (daughter of Moses Butts and Alice Lake) was born 28 Mar 1709, Little Compton, Newport Co., RI; died Between Jan 1747/48 and Sep 1793. [Group Sheet]

  3. 10.  Robert DENNIS was born 5 Nov 1677, Portsmouth, RI (son of Robert DENNIS and Sarah HOWLAND); died 3 Jan 1729/30.

    Notes:

    I have made an assumption that the Robert Dennis (b 1678, Tiverton records) who married Susannah Briggs is the Robert Dennis born 5 Nov 1677 (Portsmouth records) to Robert & Sarah Dennis. This needs more research to confirm.

    I am assuming his birth was recorded when Robert was living at Tiverton, years after the event.

    As oldest son, Robert inherited land in Monmouth, NJ, from his father in his will proved 2 Jul 1691; this land had been purchased from Jedediah Allen, young Robert's uncle. In his own will, proved 17 Feb 1729/30, Robert in turn gave "all lands in Jerseys" to sons John and Thomas.

    Robert's will is dated 29 Dec 1729, proved 17 Feb 1729/30, Tiverton. It mentions wife Susana; sons John, Thomas, & Humphrey (dec'd); dtrs Comfort (w/o Philip Taylor s/o John), Ann, Tabitha, Sarah, Elizabeth, Deborah, & Lidia (last 4 under 18).
