Answer to Two Mary Webbs

Question

The Question posed a month ago was who did Mary Webb marry.  She was the daughter of John and Mary Boone Webb.  Her mother was the sister of Squire Boone, Daniels father.

We gave all the source material we had and posted it on a Free Pages for all to review.   Which husband did Mary Webb marry?  John Starrett in 1751 as recorded by documentation from Quaker Minutes (primary source).  Or, Mordecai Lincoln in 1755 mentioned in various family histories (secondary source) or this Mary was really Mary Ward (tertiary source-a footnote in a family history).

It was obvious and noted by readers that John Starrett was her husband.  Of which I concur.  

We will be redoing the Profiles to both Marys.  Both will have a paragraph explaining the differences and as is the Wikitree standard, should any primary documents show a difference in this situation, the outcome can be changed.

Thank you to everyone who participated in this project.  Thank you to Wikitree members who helped here on G2G.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Answer 1

Geneology is never complete as hard as we may try.  It seems that  the Lincolns were just neighbors and not related.

Yet, my progenitors John & Mary Webb are the aunt & uncle of Daniel Boone whose older cousins showed him about injuns and hunting.

Thank you, Lynn for all your efforts.
