This information is from the Vital Records of Amesbury, Massachusetts to the End of the Year 1849. Published by the Topsfield Historical Society, Topsfield, Mass. 1913. The book is literally falling apart so I'm surprised the library lent it to me. It is the property of the University Library, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003, F 74 A4 A4 The abbreviations used are as follows: s = son d = daughter bp = baptized codes at the end are the sources, which I will list below HOIT Births: (pg 127-128) Daniel, s.
