Hello MA-MENDON family-- Just returned from a 5 day stint in MD. Looking over e-mails.... thank you to all for sharing all this information on our Nathaniel FOOTE line. Really appreciate. And thank you Sue R. for the snail mail... will e-mail to you shortly. Picked it up at post office this afternoon.... couldn't stop reading all that wonderful information on our line. I'm so happy to have found this line and so fortunate to be a part of a great sharing family. While visiting with cousin Alice a few weeks ago we tied up some loose ends with documenting our connection to Pilgrim John Howland. Remember Alice? Today, I finally made copies and will send you a copy shortly. Meanwhile wanted to share the following which was sent to me by Bob Freeman, Edmonds, WA: Name: Phebe Freeman 1,2,3 Birth: abt 1778 Event: 26 May 1795 Mendon, MA Event Memo: Ichabod Cook was appointed her guardian after the death of her father Father: Ralph Freeman (1741-1794) Mother: Phebe Thompson (1745- ) Misc. Notes Her birth date is not recorded, but the year is estimated based on her parents' marriage date, the known dates of some siblings, and the fact that she was a minor when her father died in 1794 Spouse 1.
