Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XZ.2ADE/308.1 Message Board Post: I too am seeking info about the GOULD families prior to your John Gould. The family intermarried with the DEAKE family at least twice, and they were (Seventh Day) Baptists! I am specifically seeking the ancestry of Anna (GOULD) DEAKE, b. 14 May 1741, whose father may have been a William GOULD judging only by child naming patterns. Charles DEAKE came from Westerly, RI, and three of his sisters married in Stonington, CT. He and Anna GOULD were m. about 1760 and lived in Hopkinton, RI, until about 1775 when they moved with several Baptists to Washington Co, NY. Can you help?

I am tracing Anna Wells who was born 3 JUL 1765 in Hebron, Tolland Co., Ernie and Sue's names were given as sources but can't locate them. Things that I'm searching for: Marriage of Anna Wells to Benjamin Fenton (date/place- source?) maybe ca 1785 NY??? Birth of their daughter Martha Wells Fenton (date/place - source?) I would say maybe Cambridge, NY May 05, 1799? Death of Anna Wells Fenton (date/place/burial - sources?) says April 1850?? Proof that Anna Wells that married Benjamin Fenton was the daughter of Joseph Wells and Thankful Shalor (maybe in will listing Anna Fenton????) see next item Will/estate/probate/deed records for Joseph Wells when he died ca 1817 Cambrige NY??? Death of Thankful Shalor Wells (date/place/burial - sources?) Birth of Thankful Shalor (date/place/- sources?) (is it 23 JAN 1726 in Bolton, Tolland Co., CT?) Marriage of Thankful Shalor to Joseph Wells (New London, CT ca 1750??) Source?? Death of Thomas Wells Feb. 4, 1760 at Hebron, CT (Source?) Did Thomas Wells have Will/estate/probate/deed records in 1760? (Hebron, Tolland Co, Ct??) Death of Elizabeth Merrill Wells Dec 24, 1770 at Hebron, CT (SOurce?) Birth of Elizabeth Merrill dec 24, 1686 at Saybrook CT (Source?) Also is Hebron in Tolland co or Hartford Co??? Just wanted to make sure Data I have accumulated: Date: Fri, 24 Jul 1998 From: Laura Hulslander <[email protected]> I checked the book "Records of the Protestant Presbyterian Church of Cambridge, Washington Co., NY" but there was no marriage listed for Anna Wells to Benjamin Fenton. There was no birth listed for Martha W. Fenton either. I did some checking on both families but didn't find any mention of those names under Fenton or Wells. Do you have any idea of which Wells family Anna belonged to?

So I am not able to help you out on this other than to confirm Thomas Welles did exist and did come from Dudley, Worcestershire. If I can find time to run them down, I do have records from various researchers from this family and will see what I can find. In the LDS library there should be a book written by Catherine B. Welles some years back. This may contain what you are looking for. I know about the book, but have never been able to get my hands on a copy. I once spoke to her husband, Rev. Edward Randolph Welles who sent me a brief bit of information but advised me that when he died the records his wife had accumulated would go to some family member whom he did not identify. >Mary Beth Wheeler lists her source on Wells documentation as Ernie & Sue Wells but their email address is not current. Anyone know their current one?<< I want that too if anyone can come up with either their current e-mail address OR a current address/telephone number.

Hello My name is Candice Allbee and I am new to this list. I am grasping at straws, this WHIPPLE line has been a hard one for me and I am wondering if there is any help I can get. JOSEPH WHIPPLE was born 1803 in CT, where exactly I have no idea, I have a few leads though, none of which as of yet I have been able to track. CHRISTOPHER WHIPPLE was born 1801 CT and I have been assuming that they are brothers as They are both In Geauga OHIO together, there is a JOSEPH WHIPPLEs signature on the marraige certificate of Christopher as well. They were also both born in CT. The ladies geneology that came from the Christopher line said that there is a possibility that ELIJAH WHIPPLE was CHRISTOPHERs Father, no information other than that was able to be obtained by this lady and that is all I know. Is there a 1800 census available for this area? Im not sure what elce may help me other than a birth certificate for Joseph and Christopher, and how atainable are those? I would appreciate any help at all because I am looking at the vast area of CT in this time frame, a needle in a haystack basically. Thank you for your time for reading my message.

I do need the full info, however. The 1910 age and the 1920 age don't match. The 1920 Groton census (ED 249) shows Alfred's age as 64, but it is hard to read so may be incorrect. He's listed as employed by Ship and Engine Co. as a machinist, but that company was acquired in 1910 by the Electric Boat Co., They don't show any record of his having worked there. Alfred's wife's name was Jane A.. I would appreciate any and all information you may have. This projecthas been difficult and frustrating. Thanks again, Anne Patton FA
