Fritz and everyone else: The Betsey Knapp that was born in 1808 has the parents of Joseph Knapp and Eunice Carver. I found in this in the original town records of Leeds, Maine. Off hand I do not know who she married. According to the page there are 17 children and I am related to Joseph born 1790 the forth child. These are my relatives and if anyone would like to know more please email.
