Fred, Page 1202 of Vol III of the Folsom Genealogy in reference to the children of Moses NORRIS and Ruth FOLSOM says, "For further details on them and their families and descendants, please refer to the 'Norris Family in America,' 1640-1892, by Leonard Allison Morrison (Boston, 1892)" Our database gives no further clues as to the maiden name of Mary the wife of James Norris but I do have info on Ruth's heritage and some limited info on her descendants.
