bullet Marriage Notes:

The marriage year of 1773 is only from Yates Publishing. U.S. and International Marriage Records, 1560-1900 at Ancestry.com, the Comly genealogy, and the Willett genealogy; I've not found a Quaker record except for this in the Horsham Monthly Meeting Minutes, a meeting held on the 22nd of the 4th month of 1774: " one of the overseers represents that Robt Field is gone out in his Marriage and is guilty of comiting fornication with her who is now his wife, his case is therefore ordered to be [Mo????]." The Horsham Meeting, founded in the 1720s, is six miles north of the Abington Meeting House.
