Glad you mentioned the marriage source, I forgot to enter it in my notes Dang now I'll have to make a mark in my notebook on the error page. I really hated to have to make that mark for an error. SOURCE: FHL Number 1000976; COLBY, Jesse; Marriage: Lydia SCOTT; Date: 25 Apr 1826; Recorded in: Birth and Marriage Index for New Hampshire. ----- Original Message ----- From: "EJ & Chris Marohn" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, February 05, 2005 4:23 AM Subject: Re: [COLBY] Jesse Colby/Lydia Scott I have some help, and would be interested where you got the wedding date info for Jesse/Lydia. I believe this is the same Jesse Colby that is listed on the 1830 US Census for Plainfield, NH on page 291. That census indicates one adult male, 1 adult female, and one 1 year old boy. That 1 yr old would be Newell Colby. Also, on the 1830 census there is a Merrill Colby listed who has the proper age to possibly be Jesse's father. I have no birth records, but I'm fairly certain this is the case. I've been able to complete a decent papertrail on my line -- Newell Colby and wife Cynthia Ticknor Wood -- all the way to present day. Among other things it should be noted that Cynthia Ticknor Wood is a descendant of MAYFLOWER passengers Stephen Hopkins and daughter Constance Hopkins. In addition the Ticknor line can be traced to early Mass colony (King Philip's War). Willing to share/compare notes.
