Jonathan Fay was born January 21, 1751 in Westborough, Massachusetts and died January 6, 1811 in Concord, Massachusetts FAG Link; no gravestone photo. Need help adding sources and updating the genealogy for Jonathan and his family. I believe his son Honorable Samuel Prescott Phillips Fay Esq should be a notable however unable to find Wikipedia link as of yet.

Thank you Wikitree family

Transcribed Westborough births show him as the second son named Jonathan born Jan. 21, 1754.

I added his children to his bio, with VR, spouses etc.   His probate, brother John's probate, father-in-laws probate etc. identifying the children and spouses and sources .

The first record is a Captain Jonathan Fay intent time marry a Mary Goddard August 1789

2nd record can’t find anything?

3rd record shows his granddaughter Lucy P, daughter of Jonathan Fay Esq married Abiel Heywood in Concord, Mass November 13, 1822

4th record looks to be his Will in June 1811

SAR record is excellent also
2nd record - fifth line from bottom of right page
Oh I see it very good hard to read her name his name is easy to see thought her name read Lucretia
Could be Lucretia, Lucy for short?
Yes I was thinking same
