    3. Lee: I have been investigating this line as well. I believe that Timothy Washburn who married Sarah Miller may not be the son of Timothy and Hannah. Timothy and Hannah went to Connecticut, and I have found records of their son Timothy there as well. I believe Timothy who married Sarah Miller may be the son of the older Timothy's brother Thomas and his wife Elizabeth Howland. I have records that Thomas and Elizabeth went up to North Yarmouth, ME and had a son Timothy baptised in the First Church in North Yarmouth in 1731. In 1736 there is a list of church members which no longer lists the Washburns, and there is no listing of a death or dismissal to another church. I have not found any land records of this Thomas Washburn in Kennebunkport, but I have found our Timothy and some of his sons there listed in land records, etc. Not knowing what became of Thomas and Elizabeth it is hard to be sure Timothy is their son. One clue: Timothy who married Sarah Miller apparently was executor of the estate of a David Washburn, and I do not know what relationship there may be between the two of them. Another clue: In Kennebunkport there was a Thomas Washburn who was probably the son of Timothy and Sarah, so there is connection with the name Thomas. Since the older Timothy and Thomas were brothers, the rest of the lineage back to John Washburn of Duxbury would be the same. Incidently Elizabeth Mitchell was a descendant of Francis Cook of the Mayflower, and Elizabeth Howland was a descendant of John Howland also of the Mayflower. If this line is correct, there are two Mayflower lines.
