    Children of Isaac Mirick and Deborah Pinkham: 5) Lydia, b. 16 Jan 1736, m. (1) Bartlett Coffin, m. (2) Benoni Hopkins, m. (3) James Proctor, m. (4) William Parkham, "outliving the last. Nearly all these men were lost at sea."
    [Note: details are somewhat lacking in this writeup. No marriage of a William Parkham may be found, but in 1789 a William Parkman married a Lydia Proctor. She died in 1810, aged 75, so born about 1735, which appears to be a good match. The problem is that this was 17 years after 3rd husband James Proctor died, and that Lydia did not outlive William Parkman, who was not a mariner, but a farmer and deacon in Concord, so more evidence is needed to confirm these are the same or not. ]
