Marge: I checked the Standish Silver Book in my local library (I will send you my results) for Bradford's entries on Myles Standish. Bradford's account says "Captain Standish his wife dyed in the first sickness; and he married again, and hath four sons living, and some are dead". Standish' first wife was Rose _________, d. 29 Jan, 1621. Second wife Barbara, who arrived on the "Anne", d. after 6 Oct 1659. Children (w/Barbara): Charles, b. ca. 1624; Alexander b. ca 1626; John b. bef. May 1627; Myles b. ca 1629; Lora b. aft. 22 May 1627; Josiah, b ca 1633. Alexander (above) married Desire Doty. Their tenth child was named Thomas, b. 29 Jan 1690 and is listed as Standish family number 13 which I can mail to you. There is a possibility that both the Standish and Doty family organizations may have further information on this marriage. Regards, JC3 On Thu, Feb 21, 2008 at 1:46 AM, Dale H.

Bill, I only had time to do a quick search and have certainly not covered all sources that can be checked - but below are a few. Weston is a surname found in descendants of the George Soule family so checked there. Unfortunately, he and Prudence are mentioned only once in the MF and MFIP books as the parents of Mary Weston who m. William Weston (Benjamin Weston4, Rebecca3 Soule, John2, George1). The above gives Mary Weston's possible place of birth as Plymouth or Boson ca1735. I checked Plymouth VRs and besides the marriage for Thomas & Prudence, found only a Thomas Weston m. Mary Howland 19 April 1723 <VR:93> (and the birth and death of a son). Nothing further. I found Thomas & Mary in Mayflower Births & Deaths 2:171 - Mary is the dau of Nathaniel3 Howland (Joseph2, John1) - Thomas is not identified. Their son was born March 1725 and died June 1725. I thought perhaps Mary may have died in childbirth so checked Burial Hill by Kingman and found p.15 that Mary Westron wf of Thomas died 13 Feb 1730, age 28. This leaves the door open for a 2nd marriage for Thomas. Then.....:) I checked Burial Hill by Drew:94 because it is arranged not by date (as in Kingman) but by family grouping - and there were both wives Mary (wf of Thomas) and Prudence (1766, widow of Thomas) next to each other - but no Thomas. I was hoping to find his age at death to have an idea of his year of birth. Since the Weston surname was prevalent in Duxbury I also checked there for the birth of a Thomas Weston in the right time period but nil found. Susan E.

Hi Standish researchers, I was wondering if there is someone who has access to the "silver books" who could tell me if Thomas Standish (b. 1610-1612, d. 5 Dec 1693) has ever been accepted by the Mayflower Society as a son of Myles Standish by his first wife Rose. If so, did Thomas, who married Sarah Beldon, have a daughter named Isabell? (b.19 Feb 1726). Thanks for any help. Marge **************Ideas to please picky eaters. Watch video on AOL Living.

Sharon, Was your William b. 16 AUG 1719, son of Samuel and Thankful (Mayo) Higgins? If so, Mayflower Fam Vol. 6 on Hopkins says this William might have married Deborah (--?--) and had three children recorded at Medfield: Lucretia, Deborah and William. The 2nd edition of MF #6 was published in 1995. Perhaps the society now has newer information. You might check with Plymouth. Richard Higgins by Katherine Chapin Higgins was published in 1918. It says nothing certain is known of this William.

Susan, Thank you for the detailed response. This is just the sort of information I am after. The North Carolina link is very important to my lines. I have James Latham showing up in a will as one of three executors for James Perkins in 1760. James Perkins would be my 6th Great Grandfather. James Latham obviously existed at that time and place...the only question would be the reliability of his parentage. I also have James Perkins' father as David Perkins, who first shows up as a witness to a will in Albermarle in 1690, but I don't know from where he came. I would love to find information confirming a migration to North Carolina of Perkins and/or Latham lines. The Perkins line is obviously not of concern for this list, but the Latham line is. Do you have any information on when and where Thomas and Deborah Latham died? I show Thomas dying in 1769, but I don't have month/day or where. Do you have contact information for the Mayflower office in Plymouth? I believe that would be my next step. The variation between Harden and Hardin doesn't bother me nearly as much as their similarity. Were Deborah Harden and Agnes Hardin aunt and neice? Just a bit of Arkansas and/or Kentucky humor...

I am trying to locate information on the HIGGINS family to the Mayflower. My William Higgins married Keziah Littlefield daughter of Daniel Littlefield and Catherine Cole.

Stuart, Your line looks fine for the first five generations, however the birth of #6 James Latham is given with the word "probably". This much can be found in MF 15 where the birth of James6 Latham, son of Thomas & Deborah (Hardin) Latham, in North Carolina, 14 Feb. 1736 is found on pg.87. The line is not carried further. It would be a good idea to have the Mayflower office in Plymouth check the line and see if they can find a previously approved, well documented paper which matches yours. Or, if you are working with a state historian, ask them to check for you. Perhaps someone has joined on this line who has found proof for James since the Chilton MF book was published in 1997. You might also ask whether or not James' placement in this family would be approved based solely on the MF book, or if more proof would be required. Don't worry too much about name variations and spellings (Harden, Hardin), it happens a lot. Best of luck, Susan E.

Hi Dpmarge, Check your history. There are no records for anyone born in CT during 1610/1612. Richard ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----

Marge, Since Hartford CT didn't exist in 1610/1612, that birth date is either a mistake or the place is wrong and should probably be England. I looked in the Standish 'silver book' to see if there was any notation of any relationship to Myles Standish, who came in 1620, but none is mentioned. There is a notation on p. 3 that says that there is no proof that the 'Thomas of Wethersfield' was Myles' son. He was not mentioned in the will. No mention of any Thomas in Hartford that I have found. There is no Susannah Francis in the index, nor is there any Lidiah b. 1640 that I can find. So, assuming the date for your Thomas is right, you should probably be looking in the English records for his birth. Hope this helps you a little.

Elizabeth Alden is my 8th great-grandmother. I also have other Mayflower connections. Since I live in Michigan I would contact the representative from Michigan.
