Bobbi, Bethia was the daughter of Timothy Hitchcock who served as a private in the Revolutionary War. He was a descendant of Matthias Hitchcock, New Haven, Conn. 1639, Founder and Signer of the Fundamental Agreement of the New Haven Colony, 1639. (Bell, C.C.P., Hine (Aaron)-Hitchcock Bible Record (Conn. & Ohio), NGS Quarterly, Volume 20, pp. 8-11). I wonder if Jabez was Bethia's brother?
