1. Benjamin Andrews (bp. 24 Apr 1726, Chebacco Parish Church; d. before 1730)^[3]

There is a record of the death of Deacon John Andrews (or Androews) on 16 Mar 1752, in his 73rd year, based on records from the Chebacco Parish Church's cemetery.^[9] When adopted, this profile had this date for Elizabeth's death.
