William of Rehoboth and William of RI were cousins and arrive in America about two years apart, Wm of RI arriving first.......William of RI is my direct male ancestor, but thru the marriage of his son to Wm of Rehoboth's daughter, I have them both in my ancestry. The lines of William of Rehoboth have been researched exhaustively but there's a lot of material on the RI'ers too. And many descendants of each are on this list, many of whom know a lot more about the family history than I......I assume that an early Carpenter with real estate or Chamber of Commerce type dreams renamed Muketo Cove as Glen Cove, LI, NY. As the town on Bitter Creek in West Texas became known as Sweetwater...... _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
