If the Alden Kindred website gives her surname as Standish, it must be a typo. Susan E.

I have Jane Standish, born at Plympton, Mass., on October 24, 1797; died at Washington, D.C. February 18, 1875. Married to Israel Heald at Sumner, ME, April 16, 1816. Israel Heald, born at Sumner, ME January 22, 1793; died at Lincoln, ME, March 28, 1882. Jane is supposed to be the daughter of Mary (Polly) Bradford (Eunice Loring Bradford, Bathsheba Bass Loring, Jonathan Bass, Samuel Bass, Ruth Alden Bass, John Alden) and Ellis Standish (Shadrach, Ebenezer, Zachariah, Ebenezer, Alexander, Myles). Jane and Israel were the parents of twelve children, one of whom was my Great Grandmother Augusta Sawyer Heald Smith, in whose home she passed away. My Great-Aunt Margaret Smith Davis (Augusta's daughter) joined the Mayflower Society on this heritage. However, the Alden Kindred website has the same Jane married to Capt. Zaccheus Sherman on December 6. 1818 at Plympton. Who has the wrong Jane Standish? I know there were at least two Janes, as well as two Shadrachs and two Ebenezers in the Standish line. (The Alden website is not to be taken as gospel, according to their disclaimer.) Has anyone else come across these people? Thanks!

She was the daughter of John and Eunice Bradford [ibid.]. The Alden site has confused her with Jane Standish, shown in the Bradford Files as having married Israel Heard. I have sent a correction to the Alden genealogist. >I know there were at least two Janes, as well as two Shadrachs >and two Ebenezers in the Standish line. There were at least three Shadrachs in successive generations in Plympton. The first was the son of Ebenezer, who married Mary/Molly Churchill there 25-Apr-1771 [Plympton VR 401]. Their son a Shadrach Jr. moved from Plympton to Halifax after his 1798 marriage [Plympton VR 400] and before the 1840 marriage of his son Shadrach Jr. [ibid.]. Dale H.
