    Charles J. Battey is my ancestor Maplet's son by her second marriage. This page records his children, the deaths of Maplet and husband James, and two marriage records of my ancestors: Jeremiah and Sally Whitford, and Charles and Harty Whitford.

  • Notes 
    • The death record in West Greenwich says he died 18 April 1853, at 80 yrs, 2 mos., and 25 days (the family Bible says 15 days). His occupation is given as "farmer." The Pine Grove Cemetery is western-most one of the two across from the Knotty Oak Baptist Church.
