Cousins and Colleagues…. I have reorganized a query I posed about a month ago. I'm trying to resolve conflicting information on two Noah Moultons and two Patience Lockes. Perhaps someone with direct access to VRs in Rye, NH can help, or perhaps there are additional sources. Noah Moulton, b. Feb. 23, 1704/05: Dow (p. 823, 865) has marriage to Patience Locke, b. 1710-1711 Parsons does not specifically reference this Noah Moulton (but see p. 421 as possible) Locke (p. 28) provisionally concludes marriage to Patience Locke, b. 1710-1711 Austin (Moulton Family, p. AFD) reports no marriage for this Noah Moulton Noah Moulton, b. Nov. 14, 1726 (nephew of the above Noah Moulton) Dow (p. 865) reports no marriage for Noah Parsons (p. 464) reports marriage to Patience Locke, but not which one Austin (Moulton Family, p. AFDBE) reports marriage to Patience Locke, b. Feb. 10, 1730 NEHGR (107:227, 1953) reports marriage to Patience Locke, b. Feb. 10, 1730 Patience Locke, b. Feb. 10, 1730 (in addition to the above two references) Locke (p. 50) reports marriage to Benjamin Woodbridge One Noah Moulton/Patience Locke marriage resulted in children born 1751-1761 (Parsons, p. 464) or 1751-1763 (Locke, p. 28). The youngest of these children was born when the older Patience Locke would have been 50 or older, apparently ruling her out as the mother of these children, and therefore casting doubt on Locke's conclusions (1) that the older Patience Locke was the mother and (2) that the younger Patience Locke married Benjamin Woodbridge. The marriage of Noah (b. 1726) to Patience (b. 1730) seems most plausible, as does the marriage of Noah (b. 1705) to Patience (b. 1710-11). Most inconsistencies can be resolved this way, but does leave the problem of who Benjamin Woodbridge's wife was. One alternative is that Benjamin Woodbridge married the older Patience and that Noah, b. 1705, did not marry. If that were true, however, then Dow's record would be in error. I would appreciate any help on source material. Bill -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William F.
