Richard HARRIS was born 14 Nov 1668 in Providence. He was married to a daughter of Clement KING and Elizabeth BAKER. I am trying to pin down his wife's first name. The research done many years ago by my mother-in-law lists her as Lydia King. However, King family researchers show her name as either unknown or possibly as Elizabeth. Does anyone have definite information on Richard's marriage? (This is Richard Sr., not his son Richard Jr. who married Lydia Sprague.)

CARTER. Seeking info on Stanley CARTER, born 17-Jan-1896 in Newport, Monmouthshire, Wales. He is believed brought to Thornton, RI, about 1899 (aged 3) by an unknown relative. Stanley was the son of William CARTER & Elvira WELLS and he married Lillian May SCHOFIELD and later worked with the American Jewelry Co in Providence, where he died on 13- May-1972. Later details are reasonably clear (SS No 035-03-9696). But who brought him to RI and when? And what of his early life. Many family members still live in Monmouthshire.
