Cameron's database has all that BS about Capt. Wm. and Elizabeth. Guess I'm getting tired having to correct our cousins. Regrettably, Stocking started and has perpetuated this myth. Stocking is only the beginning point; one must do due diligence. I have researched town records to correct my Knowlton (great grandmother) ancestry.
