Family talk:Samuel Wright and Mary Butler (2)

One of the Samuel Jrs listed as sons of Samuel WRIGHT & Mary BUTLER must be incorrect. And where did the birthplace, Chesterfield, NJ for Alice come from ?


Based upon the following from Barbour, the earlier date seems more likely: "Samuell, Sergt., m Abigail WALKER, wid of Samuell, of Hartford, Aug 1, 1723, by Rev William Burnham of Kensington; died Oct 12, 1734, in the 75th y of his age" Who is Alice? I show no such daughter.--Scot 16:36, 17 August 2009 (EDT)

I have no idea who Alice is. I show none either, but I just changed her birthplace to Wethersfield. Maybe that will get someone's attention. I don't think a lot of people read these Talk pages. Thanks for responding...I don't like to make changes without a little consensus. --Neal Gardner 18:35, 17 August 2009 (EDT)


I wouldn't be afraid to change it, especially if it is unsourced or of dubious source, nothing is lost. If you are wrong, and if no one objects, odds are you are right. Savage lists neither Alice nor Eunice. Often folks will attach to the first family seems close.--Scot 19:15, 17 August 2009 (EDT)


The above issues appear to have been resolved - only one Samuel Jr in family, no Alice, and Eunice's birth VR is cited in her record. --DataAnalyst 21:34, 14 March 2012 (EDT)
