He lived amongst the Abenaki of Northern Vt. A couple of his children were baptized at a French fort on the lower end of Lake Champlain. His Abenaki name was something like Wananolette. Some of his line took the first name of one of his sons (Louis?) at St Frances. Others ended up shortening is name to various spellings of Nolett. A few ended up in Rhode Island. I think you can find some info on him from the Ne-Do-Ba site Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

An ancestor of my husband's, Reuben Ames, came from Shoreham to Potsdam that same year. A family bible shows Reuben married a Sophia Healey on Dec 1, 1803. It does not indicate the location but I assume they made the journey during warmer weather and this wedding took place in Potsdam. None of the online family trees I've found show a child of Jabez named Sophia. Do your genealogy records show a Sophia Healy? She would have been born about 1791.
