Nancy, The repetition of names does make things confusing. This is what I have: Children of Electious Jr. and Charity Caswell: Jemima b. 1731 Charity b. 1732 Electious b. 1734 Ezekiel b. 1735 Judith b. 1737 Enos b. 1739 Joshua b. 1740 Sarah b. 1742 Alice b. ? (aka ellie) My source for this child is "400 years of Caswells 1596-1996" by Mrs. Phyliss Jamison. I don't know what her source was, but her book is used as a source for the articles in the Mayflower Descendant. Mrs. Jamison does have "The Babbitt Family History" 1643-1900" By William B. Browne in her Bibliography. My source for the other children's names and birth dates are: "The Mayflower Descendant" "Town Meeting Records 1705-1744 Middleborough, MA" MA State Archives, Microfilm #945015, pages 134, 204, &207. And... Middleborough/Lakeville Vital Records. I too would like more confirmation that Alice is indeed a daughter of Electious Jr. and Charity. (Especially since I have no dates for her) As you can see I have Judith as opposed to your Judah and I have no Joel listed. If you can enlighten me on this. I have no marriage for Charity Reynolds ( born dec 6, 1732) daughter of Electious Jr. and Charity. But I also have no marriage for Jotham Caswell (born June 6, 1738) son of Jotham Caswell and Mary Reynolds. What is your source for this marriage? Another discrepency we have is that Mary Reynolds that married Jotham Caswell is the daughter of Isaac Reynolds (Electious Jr.'s brother) The Mary Caswell that is Electious Jr's sister, married Ambrose Braley. Let me know what you think, Kathy This is the line for Joshua Caswell, : Thomas William Caswell & Mercy Lincoln Jotham Caswell & Mary Reynolds Joshua Caswell and Alice Reynolds their children: Jotham, Joshua Jr., & Martha Nancy wrote: > > I have the marriage of Alice Reynolds to Joshua Caswell, Jr also.
