Thank you to everyone who sent me email about Phebe Wait! I've cut and pasted all the responses below, in case others can also use the information. Jeanne _________________________ I have a Phebe Waite in my line. I have her born July 26, 1676 and died after 1750. "My" Phebe was the wife of Samuel Stearns, born Jan 11, 1668 and died Nov 19, 1721. The Waite and the Stearns lines goes way back. I have Samuel listed as being from Cambridge, Mass. and Phebe born in Watertown or Lexington, Mass. and dieing in Littletown, Mass. ________________________ looking for help with Denison Stearns. In one of your recent post I see mention of Phebe Wait(e). I have a Wait also but no further information on Clarrissa, except that she and Denison were married 20 Jan 1828 in Huron OH. The information I have on Denison is: b. 01 Apr 1792, it is believed that his parents came from VT and that he lived near Sodus Bay NY at one time. He died 23 Jan 1875. ________________________________________ I found two Phoebe Stearns'. One born to Samuel Stearns and Pheobe Waite in 1706...I have her married name as Cummings. Also one born to Capt. John Stearns and Rebecca Dean in 1739. The one born in 1739 does have a sister named Hannah born in 1743, however my records state that she was single. My records were copied from The Ancestry, Life and the Descendants of John K. Stearns by Donald Stearns of New Milford, Pa. in 1961. ______________________________ a cousin descended from Isaac Stearns and Mary Barker through Isacc Jr., then his son Samuel. This Samuel married Phebe Waitt b. 25 Jul 1676, at Watertown, MA., d., at Littleton, MA. She and Samuel married in 1696. Their daughter was Abigail Stearns who married Joseph Temple. Abbie was b.18 Feb 1700 at Lexington, MA. and she and Joe married 28 Nov 1717. in Lexington. ______________________________
