Biography

Meribah Stone was born on 04 Apr 1750 at Plaistow, Province of New Hampshire. [1] Death records were not found. Her death is given as 1786, in Haverhill, Grafton, New Hampshire, United States, in user-submitted information, which has been used. [2] Meribah was the daughter of Benjamin Stone (1714- ) and Mary Nichols (1715- ). [1] Benjamin and Mary had at least eight children: [2]

  1. Mary Stone (1737- )
  2. Benjamin Stone (1740-1743)
  3. Benjamin Stone (1743- )
  4. Uriah Stone (1744-1810)
  5. Martha Stone (1746- )
  6. Meribah Stone (1750-abt 1786)
  7. John Stone (1752- )
  8. Elisabeth Stone (1754- )

Meribah married Obededom "Obed" Saunders (1752-abt 1826) on 24 Jan 1769 at Haverhill, Grafton, New Hampshire. [3] NB there is also a certificate for 26 Jan. The earlier date has been used arbitrarily. The marriage ended because of Meribah's death in 1786. Records have not been found, but Obed supposedly remarried 18 Aug 1787, [4] so, her demise would have occurred before that date, in sync with the death date assigned to her in user-submitted information. [2]

In documents located in the Case Files of Pension and Bounty Land Warrant Applications based on Revolutionary War Service, what appear to be pages taken from a Family Bible list Obededom and his family's birth dates. Obed and Meribah had eight children, and Obed and Elizabeth two. The full list is the following: [5]
