Found four references to George Sturtevant. Online at newenglandancestors.org, from Massachusetts Vital Records VR Pembroke: birth record Sturtefant(see also Stirtevant, Sturtevant) George [h. Naomi S.] [Feb.-- 1809} G.R.1. marriage record Sturtevant George and Naomi Samson, July 17 [1831]. VR Plympton: birth record Sturtevant, George Winslow, ch. Winslow [q.v.] and Susanna Faxon, Feb. 9, 1805 in Halifax. From my copy of " A Historical Sketch of the Town of Hanover, Mass. with Family Genealogies" by John S. Barry, published in Boston in 1853, page 399 "Stutevant, Rufus M., s. Geo. of Pembroke, b. Feb. 17, 1830, m. Rececca A. Woodman, Mar. 1, 1852, lives on Centre St., with Seth Harding, and is a shoemaker, no ch." I found no birth record for Rufus M. at n.e.ancestors. Hanover VR are not included at n.e.ancestors (NEHGS). I have access to a microfilm copy at the Lynnfield, Mass. Library, if you can wait until after Christmas for a lookup. As for the Barry History of Hanover, it can be unreliable, but provides a point of reference. Hope this helps some. Marion Brooks Gonsalves --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
