Marge.... Thank you for the name of William GIFFORD'S first wife. My step-sons line is also that of Robert 1656-1730 and his wife Sarah WING. Would you be willing to compare records? The boys line is: William, Robert, Simeon, Job, Martha who married THOMAS GIDLEY in 1790 in Dartmouth, MA. I have WILLIAM GIFFORD's children as: John, Patience, Hannaniah poss children of 1st wife. William, Robert, Christopher poss children of 2nd wife and Mary, Jonathon and James children poss of third wife. Except for Jonathan and James I only have the possible year the event i.e.; birth, marriage, death, occured. For ROBERT GIFFORD I have that he possibly married 2) Elizabeth dau. of Stephen Cornell. Robert's children possibly were Jeremiah; Mary; Benjamin; Stephen; Rebecca; Timothy; Ann; Lydia and Simeon who marr. Susanna JENKINS. Any comments? Helen Stevenson HSteven899@aol.com
