Mercy Pierce

by mrlwca 11 years, 10 months ago

I am trying to find Mercy Pierce that married Benjamin Ricker on 11 Feb 1826 in Lebanon, Maine by Rev. James Weston. They had 5 children; Wentworth P, Isaac, Mary Esther, Mercy, and Harriet(called Hattie).
Mercy Pierce must have died by 1852 since Benjamin Ricker will marry Hannah E. Wilkinson on 1 Dec 1852 in Sanford,Maine. Hannah had formerly been married to a Jeremiah Blake.
Benjamin and Hannah are buried together at Forest Glade Cemetery in Somersworth, New Hampshire.
When Mercy Piece died and where is she buried and who her parents were are the questions of my posting.

Richard Thurlow and Eunice Tripp

by mrlwca 11 years, 10 months ago

I am attempting to find information about Eunice Tripp and Richard Thurlow Jr m. Feb 19, 1794 at Sabbathday Pond (Thompson Pond Plantation) now in New Gloucester, Maine.
They had nine children:
Moses b. 30 Jun 1795
Abigail b. 13 Oct 1796
John b. 3 Jun 1799
Charlotte b. 29 Aug 1804
Abraham b. 14 Aug 1806
Susan b. 15 Sep 1809
Annie b. 21 Oct 1812
Dolly b. 25 Jun 1815
Charles b. 10 Nov 1818

Along with information about the ancestors and details of Eunice Tripp and husband Richard Thurlow, I am looking for information about their daughter Charlotte who married a Nicholas Tripp on 22 Jan 1825.
I have information Charlotte died in 1846 but I find her in the 1850, 1860, and 1880 census of Poland, Androscoggin, Maine with her husband and nine children Eunice, Charles Henry, Mary Ann, James Calvin, Elizabeth, Augusta, Joseph, Lovina Purrington, and Jacob.

Any help to clear up this confusion would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Peter
