Research Notes
Bathsheba Clapp and her brother Elijah married Charles & Temperance Lapham who were also siblings. Charles & Temperance's mother was Temperance Clapp daughter of Sylvanus Clapp (1742-abt.1811) who was 2nd cousin, once removed (I think) to Bathsheba & Elijah's father Elijah. In addition Elijah & Temperance (Lapham) Clapp had a daughter Temperance Clapp who married Sylvanus Clapp son of the above Sylvanus. See Lapham & Clapp genealogies referenced.
