Research Notes

Note 1: There are some sources that say Martha Alexander Frizzell married Theophilus Pinder after Samuel's death and others who say she died before his death. Theophilus and his wife Martha, last name unknown had many children, unlikely at Martha Alexander Frizzell's age. [Fitzmaurice-131|Susan Fitzmaurice]

Note 2: Martha has been cited as having died in 1717 in Massachusetts, while her husband died in 1718. She might have died in childbirth as Deliverance seemed to have died in 1717 in sources that identify her death. It is my experience that all the babies in my family named Deliverance died at birth. [Fitzmaurice-131|Susan Fitzmaurice]

Martha was born on July 16, 1668.

Profile was a conflation of spouse of Theophilus Pinder (-1765) and of Samuel Frizzell (1673-1718) The former Martha may have been born in Scotland, but no source has appeared, beyond her burial and Pinder's death record showing spouse Martha. That Martha passed away in 1754. Find A Grave: Memorial #45492287
