Hi John; I have a smidgen of information for you that may or may not mean anything. In my database there is a Willam and Mary Hankinson, presumabely of Weymouth. They had a daughter Myriah (Maria) Eliza born 9 Feb 1853 (1901 Census) Weymouth (marriage record) who married James William Cossaboom and went to live in Rossway. Sadly she did not name any of her sons Adoniram or Thomas so there are no clues there. I have no information on her parents other than their names, I think I got the names from her marriage record. Can you tell be which George Thurber this is? The one who was born circa 1816 and married to Mary Lois, who died in 1862? Anyway, that's it. Are you interested in more on the Martha Waters line? I just thought I could forward the correspondence from the fellow who sent it to me. Bye for now, Theresa
