!NAME: Another possible spelling of last name is WINDOM. !Marriage: Some records list date as 1 Oct 1770 in Rockingham County, New 

Hampshire. Not sure of accuracy of this date; Dorcas would have been 12 years
old at time of marriage.  Perhaps birthdate is incorrect?  Some records
also show the first child as a Mary Ann Willis, born in 1769.  I suspect that
Dorcas and Thomas were married in about 1779 and that the Mary Ann Willis, if
she did indeed ever exist, belongs to another family.  My skepticism is
fueled by the similarity in spouses: this supposed #1 Mary Ann was married
to a John Sedgley, just as is our #4 Mary.  More research needed.
