• Notes

  Called "Bathsheba" in the birth record of her daughter Achsah. Contrary to what we originally thought, she was not the Bethia Jones who was a daughter of Thomas Jones and Bethia Whitney. In the record of her marriage to George Barber, "Mrs." is inserted by hand in front of her first name, indicating that she had previously been married to a man named Jones.
