I am doing research on the Washburn ancestors of my wife. I am enclosing a copy of a descendancy chart of the Washburns. Could anyone fill in the missing dates and places and also point out any discrepancies? There is a "weak link" with Philo Washburn born in 1799 probably in Middleborough. The only documentation of any value is a family group sheet listing Philo as a son and the probate records of his father showing that Philo's father died insolvent and having what I assume are the children's signatures. It appears that the Middleborough records are very scanty for the Washburns on my list. Any help would be appreciated.
