Note for: Mary Parshall, 1677 - ABT 1715 Index

Individual Note:
[1.ged]

The children all appear to be born of this marriage. From
studying the names of the children and the names in the James Parshall
family, it is my contention that the first wife was Mary Parshall. I
have no proof for this. Their son Richard names one of their son's
Parshall.
