Iam seeking any information available for Joseph BABCOCK (no middle name or initial). He was born in Rhode Island, possibly in Providence (I do not know if it was city or county) in 1798-1808. His wife's name was Hannah (no surname known). They had a son named George Clark BABCOCK, born in Providence, R.I. Dec.25,1830. I am looking for Hannah's surname and Joseph's middle name. Both were the same age. They left RI sometime after 1830 and settled in Ohio in 1835, teaching in one of Ohio's first log cabin schools. Information about George BABCOCK's birth might have the full names of his parents listed. Thank You. jenedmabry@wesnet.com

Early town records of Providence indicate that Henry and Samuel WRIGHT were residents in 1671 and probably much earlier. Records also indicate that Samuel was for a time the neighbor of Roger Williams. He died Feb. 26, 1716/17. A son, Benjamin was named as administrator of his estate. I would appreciate any information available about the WRIGHT family.jmac23d@ipa.net

The book, "Pownal," by Joseph Parks, 1977, pg 56, tells that "in 1788 Elder Caleb NICHOLS, also from Rhode Island. Francis BENNETT withdrew to the northwest corner of town to set up a small separate congregation of Baptists, which made NICHOLS the head Baptist minister." Rev. Caleb NICHOLS was minister of 1st Baptist Church for 15 years. Any information would be greatly appreciated. eddyb@voyager.net
