    Notes 
    • Agnes was more than ordinary woman; she had a large and notable posterity by both of her husbands. Her granddaughter Deborah Joy married Captain Andrew Ward and had nine children. Among their many distinguished descendants was Henry Ward Beecher, so that she is the ancestress of the two most notable divines in American Edwards and Beecher, who with William Ellery Channing are the only preachers and theologians admitted to the "Hall of Fame."
