Fourth Generation


93. Mary LEONARD152 was born in 1702 in Raynham, Bristol Co., MA. She died in 1736 at the age of 34 in Norton, Bristol Co., MA. Was this Mary Leonard the one who married John Barney, or was it Mary Leonard, daughter of John and Mary (King) Leonard? ECL has it both ways. This John Leonard's will has Mary the wife of John Barney.

GML makes note of a Boston Transcript article 10 Feb 1932: "John Barney, son of John and Mary (Throop) Barney, born 27 Sept 1698 at Bristol, RI, settled in Norton and married Mary Leonard, daughter of Thomas Leonard and Joanna Pitcher Leonard. No dates are found. His widow granted administration 7 Jan 1757. This is an error: the above Mary Leonard was the daughter of John and Mary (King) Leonard (p. 47, ECL manuscript).

"Philip Wilbur, brother of Micah, married Mary Leonard December 29, 1737." Second marriage? Different Mary?

Mary LEONARD and John BARNEY were married in 1730 in Norton, Bristol Co., MA. John BARNEY, son of John BARNEY and Mary THROOP, was born on 27 September 1698 in Bristol, Bristol Co., RI. He was born on 27 September 1698. He died on 7 January 1756 at the age of 57 in Norton, Bristol Co., MA.
