  • Notes 
    • I think this marriage record pertains to this William, but this needs more research to confirm:
      BATTEY William, and Rebecca Sayer; m. by Rev. Gardiner Thurston, March 17, 1778.

      I believe it is accurate because several of the names of William & Rebecca's children reflect the parentage of William Battey III: Phebe (Remington) his mother, Jane (his mother), Stephen (Remington) his maternal great-grandfather.

      I don't yet have an accurate birth year for William; I have given it a rough estimate based on the year of his parents' marriage.
