    [Note: the probate cited above is Aaron's since Lydia is clearly his daughter b. 1728 by his first wife and m. 1752 Caleb Lane. It clearly shows that he had a widow Abigail (which is also confirmed by a deed they executed together), which shows the information here is incomplete. Not only is it lacking information on the third wife, but as a result, the identification of his second wife is incorrect, being the wrong Anna, and showing the wrong death date.]
