Marriage & Family
Others have added her as the wife of two different John Fosters, one b. in 1744 and another born 1768, neither of which are correct and have been unlinked from Mindwell's profile. Based on his headstone, John was 79 when he died 6 Feb 1842, making his birth year 1763, much closer in age to Mindwell. MA Compiled Marriages p. 173 show John Foster Jr. and Mindwell Atherton md. 24 April 1788 in Greenfield, MA. [4] He was probably the son of John and Abigail (Richardson) Foster, born on 19 Dec 1763 in Attleborough, MA [5]

1789 (22) - Birth of daughter Anna Foster on Jul 22 in Bridgewater, Windsor, VT. [6]
1793 (26) - Birth of son John Foster on Jan 26 in Bridgewater, Windsor, VT [7]

Based on his headstone, John was 79 when he died 6 Feb 1842, making his birth year 1763, much closer in age to Mindwell than the John b. 1744. Attleborough, MA Town Records show John Foster, son of John and Abigail (Richardson) Foster, born Dec 19, 1763--given date, the most likely candidate (and neither of those listed in her profile.) Nor is the marriage date correct. MA Compiled Marriages p. 173 show John Foster Jr. and Mindwell Atherton md. 24 April 1788 in Greenfield, MA. Both John's linked to Mindwell should be removed and the correct one with the correct marriage date should be added.
