Hi Marilyn, It is possible. I have no record of an Edmond Sweet, but I think it likely that Oliver and Susannah had more than two children. However, there are a lot of Benjamin Sweets in the various branches of the Sweet family. Oliver's father and grandfather were both named Benjamin. Oliver also had a son named Benjamin. I've seen many other Benjamin Sweets in other family trees. You will have to research this more to make the connection. My great-great-grandfather, Oliver Sweet, is the Oliver listed in John Chandler's Sweet Family DNA Project.

He goes to Herkimer Co, New York and in 1800 Census Oliver, Benjamin and Edmond Sweet all live next door to each other. Edmond Sweet is my 4th ggrandfather. He is the right age to be a son of Oliver. Another man I met, was descended from Benjamin. He is the one who told me that this Oliver was Oliver who married Susannah Rice and later an Alice( the land record has an Alice listed) Is this the Oliver That was on the DNA test?
