Family talk:Isaac Platt and Elizabeth Wood (1)


From Isaac Platt and Phebe Smith (1): invalid marriage [3 October 2010]

Source:Platt, Charles. Platt Genealogy in America from the Arrival of Richard Platt in New Haven, Connecticut in 1638, p. 26: "Isaac married Elizabeth Wood. (His alleged earlier marriage, reported in "Platt Lineage", to Phebe Smith on March 12, 1640 was a misconstruction of the marriage of another Isaac exactly a century later; and the report was an obvious blunder on the part of the compiler G. Lewis Platt, since in 1640 Isaac was but seven years of age."--Jrich 18:01, 3 October 2010 (EDT)
