Fifth Generation


524. David BRITTON was born on 14 June 1741 in Raynham, Bristol Co., MA. He died on 21 November 1833 at the age of 92 in Westmoreland, Cheshire Co., NH. ECL-GML Genealogy -- "Dover, VT."

He couldn't have married both Lydia's -- something wrong here. Lydia Leonard 1744-1775 is mentioned in The American Genealogist, v. 45, p. 234.

David BRITTON and Lydia LEONARD were married on 27 February 1766 in Raynham, Bristol Co., MA. Lydia LEONARD652, daughter of Uriah LEONARD and Elizabeth FARLEY, was born on 3 April 1742 in Raynham, Bristol Co., MA. She died on 5 May 1775 at the age of 33 in Westmoreland, Cheshire Co., NH. There's the possibility of error in here somewhere -- two Lydias with different Leonard parents have said to have married to David Britton. Doublecheck this if you are researching this line!

ECL lists an Elizabeth Leonard with a note to see Canton records.
