So doing data doctor today and her daughter Lucy had an error open ended birth date. Was trying to make the date of her birth work with the date of her daughter Mary about 1736. That means Lucy would have been born no later than about 1724, (age 12). So then that makes Lucy's mother not work with a birth date of 1730 ! Humm, not finding records supporting the marriages here or dates. Help appreciated.
