• Notes

  SOURCE: The Sprague Database (Mail from Dick Weber [email hidden] to Wel d on Whipple, received 23 Oct 1997). SOURCE "Mowry Family Ancestry," faxed by W. Robert Freiberger (email hid d en) to Weldon Whipple, 26 Jul 1999. SOURCE: Email from Rebecca Smith (email hidden) to Weldon Whipple, 9 M a r 2006. Rebecca writes: I have The Descendants of John Mowry and, unfortunately, it shed s n o light on Zerviah Angell's parents. It gives her birthdate as 12 Jun e 17 18, agreeing with one of your sources. It also gives the date of he r marr iage to Ananias Mowry as 2 March 1745, as you have it, but I thin k this w rong. You may notice that four of her and Ananias' children wer e born bef ore that date. I don't think she was a second wife, however; t he Smithfie ld vital records (Vol. 3 p.426) list all those children as "s on[s] of Ana nias Mowry and of Zerviah his wife." At the Rhode Island His torical Socie ty Library, I found a manuscript list of marriages performe d by William A rnold, JP. This manuscript is filed as MSS 267, Arnold-Hol den Papers, Ser ies I, F8. It reads, in part: "Ananias Mowry and Surfir e Angel was marrie d March 2, 1737/8." This date, which agrees in day an d month but not year , seems more reasonable, since it comes before the b irths of all of the c hildren. [Bold added by Weldon Whipple.] I have consulted several secondary sources regarding the childre n o f John Angell and Sarah Clemence, but find no memtion of Zerviah. I f yo u learn anything furthur, I should be happy to hear of it.
