    [Note: this source appears to be poorly cited: film 6621 and 6622 are wills from Delaware. Bridport, Vermont, has an article "Inventory of the town, village and city archives of Vermont, no. 1, Addison County, vol. 2, Town of Bridport", which is not viewable online, but unlikely to be of interest. Film 27832 contains town and vital records which lists births of children of William and Hannah Myrick, but as near as has been found, do not account for dates posted above for William.]
