• Notes

  2014—Dec Added burial event and photo of gravestone note that the grave reads “PATTY” wife of William Adams. The dates match the dates for Polly wife of WIlliam which is listed in Cogswell so I’m inclined to believe thsi is the correct person. Also note that one of her children with WIllia was called “Patty 2011-Mar Marriage record for Polly Wood & Wm Adams in 1808 2006 from Cogswell: William Adams.... he md. second wife, Polly, dau. of Eliphalet Wood, of Harvard, Mass.,
