Chances are pretty good that she is attached somehow to my family of Wordens but as of now I don't have any idea of how. Sylvester Worden married in to my family of Wordens. His wife, Hannah Drayton's mother was Maria Worden who was a decentant of Peter Worden who came here in the 1600's and helped to settle Cape Cod. Somehow all the Wordens are related but not all the connections are known at this time. Sylvester and Hannah are buried in Fentonville with their only son Henry. He is also buried there. He was never married or had any known children. He died in the Chautaqua Poorhouse and was buried in Frentonville which is a small hamlet just outside the village of Frewsburg (Town of Carrol) where my family has lived for several generations. My parents still live there. Hannah Drayton was the sister of my direct line ancestor LoisAnn Drayton Kinneston. Also ! buried in the same cemetery is Hannah's parents Maria and William Drayton, a sister-in-law, Lucy Jane Drayton, and some other cousins. Sorry that I can't help you in your search for Prudence's family. Doreen Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
