Hi Everyone, I am stumped looking for the parents of my Cynthia Peters m. Solomon Howard. Another woman is looking for Timothy Peters, I have some notes that state that "Cynthia named one son Timothy and it's not a Howard name. These same notes, not mine-found in VT, state that "the Peters were Quaker in RI and Salem". Where the info for that statement came from I haven't a clue. I've checked the big Aldrich genealogy at my local library and it doesn't show them. Here's where you come in, we have a record of Timothy Peters, m. Hannah Aldrich Dec. 7, 1766 in Cumberland, RI, by a justice of the peace per Vital Records of RI, Vol 3. My Cynthia was supposed to have been born 1770 in NH. There were several Aldrich and Peters families in Richmond, NH Town Records but not Timothy. The first record I can find of him so far is in the 1790 census for Orange, MA, Cynthia was already married to Solomon by then. The Timothy we are calling Timothy Jr, was born about 1774. I'm not sure about any connection but can anyone out there shed some light on this subject. Thanks in advance, Joyce Westmyer Santa Ana, CA robertw1@ix.netcom.com
