228. Lafford FRENCH was born 1753 in Raritan Landing, NJ. He died 11 Sep 1834 in Rutherford Co., NC. Lafford married Hester FEAMSTER before 1788. [Parents] All of the childrens' birth dates are from the Lafford French family Bible which Mable Berry Clark used for the DAR application. 229. Hester FEAMSTER died 1803 in Cowpens, NC, SC?. This is very interesting, as Lafford French is in the DAR Patriot Index, but only with this second wife. This must be a very old Application. I am a member of the DAR I will see if I can get a copy of the Bible record. The DAR has raised the price of ordering an old application from $5.00 to $10.00 and I don't think it would yield enough data to make it worthwhile as it would only contain the line that Mable used for membership. But if you want me to order it, let me know. Julia
