    1. [NYROCKLA] CARPENTER/COE/SMITH, COLE,BUCK, HATCH, BOYD,MURDOCK,BUELL
    2. Boson Transcript Genealogy column Mar 3, 1932 had the following query: (3193) 1. BUCK Israel Buck of Amenta, NY, Rev War, Dutchess Co Militia: Irrael Buck, Jr. 2. WILLIAMS Wm Williams of NYC. B 1747 d. Poughkeepsie 1817? W Catherine ___Ch: John, lawyer of NYC d 1806 and Catherine m Zephaniah Pells. 3. COLE, SMITH, CARPENTER. "Who were the parents of RUTH COE who married JOHN CARPENTER of Jamaica, N.Y>? She was born about 1685 and died in 1759. They moved to Goshen, N.Y>, where RUTH (COE) CARPENTER married, second, a Mr. Thurston. Who were the parents of Hannah Smith, who married (as his second wife) MOSES CARPENTER of Goshen N.Y.? She died in 1829. Their children were Elizabeth Wilson, Joanna Reed, Susannah Redmond and Abigail Munro. 4. HATCH Mary__ wife of William Hatch of Scituate, MA, bap. Scituate April 29, 1660 5. BOYD, MURDOCK. Who were the parents of Annie boyde d Norwich VT 1791, she m Robert Murdock of Simsbury, Conn. 6. BUELL, SPENCER, GRISWOLD…Wm Buell of dorchester, MA and Windsor, Conn m Mary Thomas. Wm Spencer of Cambridge, MA and Hartford Conn, Agnes Heane or Agnes Pratt. Then signed E. C. W. R. I am trying to find out who might have written this query. Based on my research on all materials that I have seen I have observations/comments: 1. I believe this is the first time I have seen a date of death for RUTH COE. 2. It seems to me that this must have been written by a descendant of Moses Carpenter's second wife, HANNAH SMITH because: The obvious: this person was looking for HER ancestors and also because we know that the named ELIZABETH Carpenter married a WISNER, not a WILSON, (thus showing a lack of re. the first wife's line of descent.) 3. Cole is the only other name that I recognized! I know that a descendant of Moses and his first wife, Elizabeth Runyon had a grandaughter Laura MELVIN who married a Cole, but do not know if this could be the same Cole family mentioned above. 4. The Munro spelling is correct, Reed has been recorded as Reid also, and Redmond is reported as Redman and Redmon. I sure would appreciate any help with this. Who wrote this query????? Please it on if you have access to others or other lists that might be able to help. Thank you, Phoebe
