Aisha Jenkins,
You must be a descendant of Lydia Brown,b. March 2, 1787 who m. Elisha Keeler.Lydia was the daughter of Elijah Brown Jr. and Sarah Adams. Sarah was the daughter of Elisha Adams and Sarah Taylor. Elisha Adams was born in Canterbury CT 5 July 1732-33, the son of David Adams and Dorcas Paine. Vol 6 of the Mayflower Society Five Generations Project, following the lead of the D.A.R. and others, places the adult life of Elisha Adams in Dutchess County NY, says his wife was either Margaret or Phebe, and gives no firm date of death.A researcher who does work for the Mayflower Five Generations Project, after thorough research, has concluded that the statements about Elisha Adams on page 202 of the second edition of Vol 6 of the Mayflower Families through Five Generations are incorrect. He is convinced that Elisha Adams who married Sarah Taylor, who was a resident of Coventry CT before moving to Vermont, who was a resident of Pittsford VT, and who died there on 15 August, 1823 and is buried in the Congregational Church Cemetery in Pittsford, is the Elisha Adams, who was born in Canterbury, the son of David and Dorcas {Paine}Adams.I have a copy of the report and have been informed by the editor of Vol. 6 of Mayflower Families through Five Generations that a correction will be made in the new edtion.Art Brown
