Person talk:Joseph Ames (6)

Watchers

Who were his parents? [30 April 2024]

Was Joseph the son of Amos and Mary, born before they married, when Amos was only about 17? Or is he more likely the Joseph Ames born 8 Jul 1776 in Mason, New Hampshire, son of Simon and Sarah Ames, especially since some of his children indicated he was born in New Hampshire? Not my line, but I noticed the age gap between Joseph and Amos and the note that his parentage is uncertain.--DataAnalyst 15:10, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
