Know from where you are coming from. Rachel Doupe first married nathaniel Shier, after he died, she married her cousin Charles Doupe, son of John Doupe who married a Sarah Miller, I have kind of got Charles descending from a John doupe who married Elizabeth Fitzelle, His father may have been Harry Doupe who married an Agnes. But I am descending from two Doupe brothers... John and Samuel. intermarrying cousins did not seem to bother these people. I guess they didn't consider thier descendants who would later try to figure out the mess they made. lol Hopefully you can find someone to figure out your mess, I am still trying to find out something about the mess my ancestors made in my particular tree. What were they thinking???? lol Judy
