I have a Lydia Weeden who married Samuel Sweet in 1768 in East Greenwich. She is the daughter of Caleb and Lydia Weeden. Lydia, the widow of Caleb Wood, had numerous siblings named Edward, Peleg, Benjamin, Phebe, and Daniel all from East Greenwich. Your Weeden may have been named for a relative so it could be a place to start. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
