  • Notes 
    • I am making an assumption that Benjamin, son of Daniel (mentioned in his will), is the same individual who married Susannah Spencer. I have not been able to find another Benjamin in this time period. (needs more research)

      I have estimated the birth years for the children of Thomas & Abigail.
