Family talk:Gershom Fay and Mary Brigham (1)


Wrong wife [7 September 2010]

I removed Person:Mary Brigham (4) from this marriage. She died 1676 and so obviously did not marry Gershom in 1702. Source:Cutter, William Richard. Genealogical and Personal Memoirs Relating to the Families of the State of Massachusetts, p. 2:1289, says Gershom who was a son of the above Mary Brigham's husband John Fay by his second wife Susanna (Shattuck) Morse, and that the Mary Brigham he married was a niece of the above Mary Brigham, b. 6 May 1678. This may be a good place to start looking into who is the correct Mary Brigham. --Jrich 09:59, 7 September 2010 (EDT)
