Author: DHawks2305 Surnames: Castle, Williams, Smith Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.castle/57.113/mb.ashx Message Board Post: A John Castle, son of Jabez Castle & Mary Ann (Williams) married 2 March 1785 Lydia Smith in Chatham, NY. They lived in Canaan NY. I don'thave names of any of John & Lydia's children but perhaps Smith Castle was a son named after his mother Lydia Smith. The 1788 birth year of Smith you give works with marriage year of John & Lydia. An idea anyway you might want to check out further. If this is your line, I have a bit of info on John's father Jabez that my line descends from. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
