This link to "History of Taunton" has the will of George Macy.  It says that his daughter, Mary, married Thomas Williams and then Rev Keith.  Incidentally, I am descended from Thomas Williams parents Richard Williams and Frances Deighton History of Taunton, Massachusetts |   | |   | |   |   |   |   |   | | History of Taunton, Massachusetts0 ReviewsWrite reviewhttps://books.google.com/books/about/History_of_Taunton_Massachusetts.html?id=iqsvAQAAMAAJ | | | | View on books.google.com | Preview by Yahoo | | | |   | Page 62 On Sunday, May 17, 2015 9:02 PM, Carolyn Rust via <[email protected]> wrote: What a nice synopsis you've sent us this lovely Sunday afternoon in May.  Being descended from all the Nantucketers you mentioned I checked my genealogy to see if I had some documentation for Mary Macy's parentage, and I don't. The closest I can come to verifying that Thomas Macy and Sarah Hopcott are her parents is that the Barney genealogical records used by the Nantucket Historical Association show that they are, but no documentation is given. If I ever see anything I'll be sure to send it your way. Thanks, Bette!
