Rough draft

There are public records of a John Dalrymple born to Thomas & Rhoda Dalrymple in 1809 in Heath Mass, who died in 1859 in Ashburnham.

Thomas married Rhoda Healy on 25 June, 25 1796. (Note that Thomas's oldest sister, Elizabeth, also appears to have married a Healy, namely John Healy, who I believe was Rhoda's brother).

Thomas may have served in the War of 1812 (the record isn't so clear).

Father of John, Elizabeth Dalrymple (1802 - 1822); Jedediah H. Dalrymple (1804 - 1859); Rhoda Dalrymple Eddy (1815 - 1856); and Lawson Dalrymple (1817 - 1864).
