My line goes Philip, Giles, Samuel, Giles, Joseph, who was first to leave Rhode Island. He died in PA aft. 1768. Then Martha who m. Philip AYLESWORTH and died in 1822 in Butternuts, Otsego County, NY. They are buried in, I think the name is Riverside Cemetery in South New Berlin, Otsego County, NY. I visit their graves. I have been to Rhode Island and copied any documents I could find on the SLOCUM family. I have not been able to fine Martha's last name, who married Philip AYLESWORTH. The general thought is that it was WEEDEN. I did find his first wife who was Patience CARR. Elaine, who never has had any virus programs or firewalls and never had any problems. I do too much research and have too many programs to run a webtv. I do back up my files though.
