Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Mary CHURCH was born on 8 Aug 1729? (daughter of Joseph CHURCH and Lydia RANDALL).

    Notes:

    Name:
    Considering all established information together, the potential clue found in the Jennings genealogy seems inconclusive. If Mary and Sarah Church were twin daughters of Joseph and Lydia (Randall) Church born in 1738, then this Mary would have been only 13 at the time of Sylvanus Westgate's marriage in 1751. Multiple sources place Mary (Church) Westgate's birth years as 1725. Given Sylvanus's birth in 1719, a wife born in 1725 or 1729 seems more likely than one born in 1738. If Joseph and Lydia (Randall) Church's daughter Mary was actually born in 1729 per the town records, then she and Mary (Church) Westgate may have been the same person. Unfortunately, I was unable to find a living matrilineal descendant of Mary (Church) Westgate to take an mtDNA test, which might have resolved this question.
