Notes

!Marriage(2:Dean): Barbara Lewis Williams p.100. (info appears to have come from Bucksport VR) Her birth record might be one of the following (I think the third is the most likely): 1. "Thankful attwood the daugter of Christopher & Susannah attwood was born Eastham November 25, 1760" [Eastham & Orleans VR, Mayf.Des.16:198]. Note: Other siblings include: Samuel, Joseph, Christopher, Hannah, Gideon, and Susannah. 2. "thankful Atwood the Dafter of James and mercy Atwood was born in Eastham Aprel 16: 1741" [Eastham & Orleans VR, in Mayf.Des. 15:74] 3. Thankful Atwood, dau. of William Atwood and Bathshuah Smith. The will of Samuel Smith, of Wellfleet, dated 18 April 1768, and proved 11 Oct 1768, mentioned "heirs of dau. Bathsheba Atwood, viz. Abigail, Martha, John, William, Bathsheba, Thankful, Anna, and Zoheth.". [RIN = 14846] Note that there is already a family connection to this one, making it that much more likely -- Thankful's husband's aunt married this William Atwood, making her a step-mother to this Thankful. She is mentioned in the will of her grandfather, Samuel Smith of Wellfleet, as an heir of dau. Bathsheba Atwood, dated 18 April 1786, proved 11 Oct 1786. Candidates: 1. David Crooel/Crowell of Chatham and Thankful Atwood of Eastham int. 8 Aug 1759 in Eastham [MD ?:8]. ------
