  • Notes 
    • Nathaniel and his first wife, Sarah Luther, were third cousins. They had four children, including a set of twins, but it appears that most or all of the children died young.

      Nathaniel and his second wife, Eleanor Boomer, were first cousins.

      Nathaniel lived in Swansea and was a member of the Baptist Church there. According to the church record books, Nathaniel & Eleanor were married 30 Nov 1751. However, the Swansea VRs give the date as 2 Jan 1752.
