Person talk:Mary Foster (66)

Wrong birth date [19 March 2011]

The birth date shown on this page is the result of matching the wrong family.

"4 AUG 1745 in Plymouth, MA" is the family of Thomas Foster and Mary Morton, and the birth record for that Mary Foster also records her death 1 Sep 1746 (see Source:Mayflower Descendant, p. 13:114), so this Mary Foster clearly did not live long enough to marry.

The family of Thomas Foster and Mary Lyon, listed as parents on this page, lived in Dorchester per Source:Pierce, Frederick Clifton. Foster Genealogy, p. 540. So looking in Source:Dorchester, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States. Dorchester Births, Marriages, and Deaths to the End of 1825, we find on p. 97: Mary ye Daughter of Thomas & Mary Foster was Born February 2d. 1741/2.

I replaced the 1745 dated with the 1742 date. --Jrich 00:01, 29 November 2009 (EST)
