Carolyn, Your right but I think they had a lot of children was so they could help with the chores and day to day living.They also needed to insure their old age , especially if the wife died young.I believe that's what happened to the 1st wife of Moses.She died less than a year after the birth of their last child.

Hi! Gayle Waite redwingsri@cox.net one of the co-authors of the Hopkinton Cemetery book along with Lorraine Arruda has produced a new Charlestown cemetery book. She has informed me the grave of Tobias Saunders that was disturbed by cemetery vandalism and covered in The Providence Journal yesterday http://www.projo.com , was born in 1732 and died in 1809,. Doing a search on the Internet it clearly appears that this Tobias Saunders was the grandson of the original Tobias Saunders whose wife was a Peckham, a number of us in this region are descended from that couple. I am not a direct descendant of the Tobias whose grave was disturbed. However because of the Peckham ancestry of the younger Tobias he is a remote kinsman of FDR. The younger Tobias clearly is the son of Stephen Saunders and Rachel Bliven. Through "Bcc:" sharing with various contacts including media. BTW my third cousin the late Earl P. Crandall who grew up in Charlestown did a Saunders genealogy book, I will need to review on this younger Tobias Saunders.

Hi! I am a descendant of the "original" Tobias Saunders, a mutual ancestor of my third cousin the later Earl Crandall who grew up in Charlestown who did a book on him and some of his descendants. Another Tobias Saunders grave site was disturbed in Charlestown, Rhode Island; see http;//www.projo.com , today's "South County" edition of The Providence, R.I., Journal,. Lorraine Arruda and Gayle Waite have just come up with a book on Charlestown cemeteries. Contact Gayle at redwingsri@cox.net for information on that. Perhaps the "most interesting" Saunders grave site is that of Mary (Clarke) Saunders a wife of Peleg Saunders in the First Hopkinton Cemetery in Ashaway, R.I., the price of $33 is engraved on the back of her gravestone! Sharing this with with Genealogy list though "Bcc:",. Relatively yours, Scott Scott Bill Hirst 20 Maple Court Ashaway,RI 02804-1300 USA (401)377-4643 Note:Telephone if you need quick reply.

You can always count on the ancestors to have multiple, multiple children. They always seem to list the father as having 10-15 children by wife, 1 , 2 and 3....who died...but never mention the poor woman as having the children. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Norman James" <nvj4@comcast.net> To: <rigenweb@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2008 11:38 AM Subject: Re: [RI] Fw: Roll Call > Carolyn, > My Moses Barber's 1st wife was Anne Babcock .

from "Printers and Printing in Providence, 1762 - 1907" prepared by a committee of Providence Typographical Union #33 as a souvenir of the 50th anniversary of its institution printed in 1907 "The Journeymen" (part 138) p. LXI. "GEORGE McCLURE - Born Coshockton, O., March 15, 1863; learned printing in that town, beginning Sept. 2, 1878; admitted to Providence Union by card at the July meeting, 1888; 'worked in every town in the United States and Canada of any importance, and in a great many that were not of importance;' located in Brooklyn, N. Y., in 1904. ALEXANDER McCOMB - Committed suicide Sept. 26, 1886, in the printing office of Hammond, Angell & Co., this city. He was discovered by the foreman of the office, Arthur Shaw. He had learned the trade of a pressman in the Journal press room, coming there in 1856, when the first Hoe cylinder press was installed. He was initiated into Providence Typographical Union April 18, 1857; had worked in almost every printing office in Providence; was about 55 years old at time of death. ANDREW J. McCONNELL - Born West Chester, Pa.; began to learn printing in New York city in 1874; admitted to Providence Union by card Sept. 27, 1891. He came to this city from Brooklyn, N. Y., with Mr. and Mrs. John L. Heaton, founders of the Providence Daily News, and was its first foreman. Toward the end of 1892 there was a lock-out of the Union force in the News composing room and Mr. McConnell lost his position thereby. Shortly after he went to Woonsocket and became interested in the Evening Call of that city and is now part owner and managing editor of that successful paper. HUGH McDEVITT - Born Dublin, Ireland, Jan. 1, 1837; learned printing in Liverpool, Eng. He writes: 'First worked in Providence in the fall of 1864, on the Journal. There as an alleymate met the first Mormon I every knew, who, as soon as he learned I was a soldier of European experience, offered me a commission in the Mormon army and tried to get me to go to Utah; but his descriptions of Mormondom conflicted with my taste and I concluded to remain a Puritan.' In the spring of 1865 he worked on the Post; employed on the Boston Glove in 1907. PETER A. McDONALD - Died Pawtucket, R. I., Nov. 22, 1866, aged 28 years, 7 months and 20 days, the first member of Providence Union to pass away after its organization. He was a native of Nova Scotia; initiated into No. 33 Sept. 11, 1858; President in 1860 and '61 and delegate in 1862. The members of the Union attended the funeral in a body." continued in part 139.
