David BRITTON and Lydia LEONARD were married on 27 Feb 1766. Lydia LEONARD42 (daughter of Philip LEONARD and Lydia CHASE) was born on 12 Jan 1743/44 in Raynham, MA.151 She died after 1782. Note that we have two Lydia Leonards marrying David Brittons in this database, the other being a daughter of Uriah and Elizabeth Farley. Samechildren. Something's amiss!

One clue: Lydia mentioned in father Philip's will as receiving one-fifthof his personal estate, will dated June 12, 1782. So it wouldn't havebeen Philip's daughter who died in 1775, causing David to remarry. David BRITTON and Lydia LEONARD had the following children:
