Fourth Generation


33. Betsey LEONARD12 was born on 8 August 1791 in Taunton, Bristol Co., MA.16 She died on 31 August 1821 at the age of 30. E.C.L. says she never married, but G.M.L. says she did. WCL says Miss Betsey Leonard is buried in Field Cemetery, Taunton, while William's offspring are pretty much in the Glebe Street Cemetery per VR listings. Except for William and Samuel, the children of Seth and Ruth are buried in the Field Cemetery. Samuel is buried in the North Taunton Cemetery on the opposite side to Ruth Hoar Leonard, wife of Seth.

The Leonard Dictionary by Lois Badger and Harriott Leonard Standish states that Betsey married David Godfrey, 1818.

Betsey LEONARD and James LEACH were married on 26 May 1811. James LEACH, son of James LEACH and Hazadiah KEITH, was born in 1772 in Bridgewater, Plymouth Co., MA. Right James Leach? Quite a difference in their ages.
