Hi cousins and fellow searchers! I'm new to this list and genealogy in general. I am overwhelmed by the amount of Converse info that is out there. But I need to start closer to home. I am descended from Sanford, son of Jeremiah Converse and Rhoda Converse (married cousins). I would be interested in info re Sanford and his son John Nelson.

Marcia A. Converse who married John Currier abt. 1818 was born in Grand Isle, VT. Her first three children were also born in Grand Isle: Louisa C. Currier b. 5 Sept 1817, Mary A. Currier b. 1819, Marcia C. Currier b. 22 Nov 1822. John Currier remarried 22 Nov 1854 so I assume Marcia A. Converse died 1850-53. I hope someone has Marcia Converse in their lineage and can give me accurate dates and tell me who her parents and siblings were. Thank you.
