Hello to the list, I have a Jane Standish (1797-1875) married to Israel Heald (1793-1882) sometime before 1816 (birth year of her first child). She 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). They were the parents of twelve children, one of whom was my Great Grandmother Augusta Sawyer Heald Smith. However, the Alden Kindred website has Jane married to Capt. Zaccheus Sherman on December 6. 1818 at Plympton. Have I a different Jane Standish? I know the Alden website is not to be taken as gospel, according to their disclaimer. Has anyone else come across these people? Thanks, Margaret Smith Looking at Alden, Standish and Brewster

Since the last flurry of posts regarding the Cobb/Howland/Chipman lines, I've had many emails from list members asking for updates, and have responded to some directly, but just wanted to let others know that my Henry Cobb book has (finally) been published. Please see the website below for details. And if you have any questions, please contact me directly, not on the list. Thanks, Susan E.
