The living are listed but NO other data - only the names. Few are supplying the missing lines and information to add to the database. I have a serious question - Alice you can contact Allison if she is still without computer access. Which one did Mary (daughter of Jacob[4] and Joanna Bartlett) marry? John Bennett - 4 Dec 1760 in Uxbridge as stated in GAG vol. 1, listing children as well. -OR- William Rawson abt 1760 in Uxbridge as claimed by one submitter. This submitter sent in his to the Pedigree Resources File (successor to the Ancestral File, and not merged with others). Now it's hot here.

This submitter sent in his to the Pedigree Resources File (successor to the Ancestral File, and not merged with others). ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ From "Vital Records of Uxbridge, Massachusetts, to the Year 1850", by Thomas W. Baldwin, Wright & Potter Printing Company, Boston, 1916, p. 197: "Bennet, John and Mary Aldrich, d. of Jacob, 4th day, 12th mo., called December, 1760. C.R.3*" * Intentions not recorded. C.R. 3 = "from records of Smithfield, R. I., Monthly Meeting" p. 292: "Rawson, William (of Mendon, int.) and Desire Aldrich, Mar. 12, 1760." From "Vital Record of Rhode Island, 1636-1850", by James N. Arnold, Narragansett Historical Publishing Company, Providence, 1891, vol. 7, Smithfield Record of Friends, p. 163: "Bennett John and Mary Aldrich, of Jacob, both of Uxbridge, 4d 12m 1760." It seems pretty clear that Jacob^4 Aldrich's daughter Mary married John Bennet(t). William Rawson did marry an Aldrich in 1760 at Uxbridge, but it was Desire, not Mary. (GAG I shows Desire as the daughter of John^3 (Jacob, George) Aldrich.) I'm sorry to hear about the deaths and destruction back East being caused by Allison (that's Tropical Storm Allison, not our Alison F.!!!) Jim Bullock Littleton, CO
