I was wondering if anyone on the list could help me identify the parents of either of the gentlemen above? They are two of my brick walls. Elisha had a daughter Mary FLOWERS who married Artimas BEERS. They had three children Caroline E., George W., and James Monroe. I descend through Caroline E. BEERS and David DEAN (son of Asa of Barnard). Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, even if it's just hooking up with cousins who want to compare notes. Regards, Jerry Jerry H.

From "Hartland in the Revolutionary War" by Dennis Flowers: John Flower, the father of Elisha. The Flowers came from Hartford, Conn. at the early settlement of the town, in exactly what year is not known. They made their first pitch on what was afterward the Parson Breck farm, subsequently exchanging with someone who desired "improved" land, for the land now occupied by W. E. Davis......Shubel Lamphear, Hartland's blind showman once lived in the Artemas Beers house, the first house below W. E. Davis'......" This would indicate that the Flowers and Beers were next door neighbors. I believe this Elisha was a generations older than the one you are looking for since he fought in the Revolution. He died July 5, 1812 at age 56 and is buried in the Plain Cemetery in Hartland. > > > U ==== VTWINDSO Mailing List ==== > Rootsweb's Windsor County, Vermont Mailing List > Acceptable Use Policy at: http://www.rootsweb.com/rootsweb/aup.html > -- List admin.

My Mary Flowers would have been born about 1800 (she married Artemas Beers before 1824). I suppose it is possible he had Mary at age 44, so it still might be the right one. In any case, it's an Elisha in Hartland somewhere around 1800. Thanks very much for the info.
