When I receive it from the list it comes back in programming language interspersed with the below words. If you have the following information pls forgive the redundancy. Baptismal record: Westfield MA Church of Christ Baptisms: Sacket Zavan s. Isaac & Eliza Sept 2, 1750 Marriage Record (obtained from Southampton, MA town clerk) Zaven Sackett an Abigail Bill married February 16, 1779 in Southampton, MA Note at bottom : "Zaven Sackett of Westfield and Abigail Bill of Southampton published February 16, 1779. " Zavan's death notice from the Crawford Statesman, Oct 29, 1840, p.3 col 6 Abigail was not mentioned in his application for his Revolutionary War pension, which he made August 13th , 1832. (She and he signed a land deed in Crawford Co in 1829. In land deeds subsequent to that only Zavan's signature appears on the deed. In previous notes to the List I summarized obituaries of his sons from the various local Crawford co newspapers. If anyone wants the references of those papers, I will be glad to provide. Dianne Cobb
