Dear Listers Can anyone help me find sources to write to get more information on the following? I found these and believe them to be my ancestors, which probably left Rhode Island beginning in 1780-1800. the following family members are needing to be researched and I didn't know where else to write for help. Thank you for replying..... Surname Wamsley, believed to be Native American Indians, possibly earlier families moved to the Brothertown area and remained within the area, here are the names I found and the counties they resided in on the Federal Census.. I am really curious to find out what the "numbers" mean in place of a township? Any ideas?
