Thanks Anne B. I concur. I did an "auto-adopt" of a bunch of profiles and hadn't gotten to this one yet. We should recruit Jeanie to work on this line. I think she's become an authority of this lineage. What my notes say is that she was daughter of Nathaniel Locke and Sabina Hermins. That was based on court testimony. I'll disconnect the parents.

Hi Roland, Judith born this date in New Hampshire, would not have been dtr of Thomas and Christena who didn't leave England and I'm pretty sure are the previous generation.
