    1. [SALEM-WITCH-L] Question on the Collins/Johnson Family
    2. Jody Roberts
    3. I recently found a new branch on my family line, and was more then a little surprised that this one led back to the Marblehead/Lynn area of Massachusetts. Here are some snippets of the Ahnentafel for that line.... <SNIPPET ONE> 44. John Collins, born January 14, 1632/33 in London, Middlesex, England; died December 22, 1679 in Lynn, Essex, MA. He married 45. Abigail Johnson Abt. 1656 in Lynn, Essex, MA. 45. Abigail Johnson, born in Lynn, Essex, MA. Child of John Collins and Abigail Johnson is: 22 i. John Collins, born June 28, 1679 in Lynn, Essex, MA; died May 29, 1775 in Charleston, Washington, RI; married Susanna Daggett January 13, 1703/04 in Lynn, Essex, MA. <SNIPPET TWO> 46. William Daggett, born 1661 in Marblehead, Kent, MA; died 1706. He married 47. Rebecca Wormstall. 47. Rebecca Wormstall, born 1663 in Winter Harbor, Hancock, ME; died Aft. 1727 in Sutton, Worcester, MA. Child of William Daggett and Rebecca Wormstall is: 23 i. Susanna Daggett, born 1685 in Saco, ME; died January 14, 1753 in Charleston, Washington, RI; married John Collins January 13, 1703/04 in Lynn, Essex, MA. <SNIPPET THREE> 22. John Collins, born June 28, 1679 in Lynn, Essex, MA; died May 29, 1775 in Charleston, Washington, RI. He was the son of 44. John Collins and 45. Abigail Johnson. He married 23. Susanna Daggett January 13, 1703/04 in Lynn, Essex, MA. 23. Susanna Daggett, born 1685 in Saco, ME; died January 14, 1753 in Charleston, Washington, RI. She was the daughter of 46. William Daggett and 47. Rebecca Wormstall. Child of John Collins and Susanna Daggett is: 11 i. Lydia Collins, born 1714 in Westerly, Washngton, RI; died November 20, 1809 in Waterford, New London, CT; married William Gorton, Sr 1736 in RI. Now, the only reason I'm asking is because the Daggett name seems familiar, as does the Collins name. The fact that the family migrated away from the area also raises a mild suspician. Anyone have any information on whether they were involved at all with the Trials? Jody Roberts ICQ# 1362302 http://home.netcarrier.net/~jroberts <--- NOTE! New URL!
