    Notes:

    John's will mentions by name his wife, two half-brothers (Henry & Peleg) and one half-sister (Sarah) who is deceased; he also lists all of his nieces and nephews.

    I haven't yet figured out how they are half-siblings to him, since they all have the same last name and also seem to have the same mother, based on her will and their dates of birth. Possibly Benjamin died and Elizabeth married another Mr. Tibbetts, and eventually was widowed a second time. I haven't found a record of such a marriage, but many such records are missing, or were never recorded.

    John — Susannah Unknown. [Group Sheet]

  1. 10.  Allen J. Tibbetts Descendancy chart to this point (7.Ezra3, 3.Peleg2, 1.Benjamin1) was born 1823, West Greenwich, RI.

    Notes:

    In the 1850 Federal Census, Allen is living at Cranston with Joseph G. Johnson and his wife Mary A. (Remington) Johnson and family. It appears that they named a son after him (see 1860, 1870, & 1880 censuses).

    I can't locate him in any censuses after 1850. He could be this individual in the RI Cemetery Database:
