Ray,The million dollar question is whether or not the Samuel Bentley in Halifax, getting land about 1748 or 52, and having children Samuel b. 1772, James/Jesse b. 1774, John 1778 and Sarah 1783 was married to an Elizabeth Younger or Lucy Northern...or both.The "Bible record" of sorts seems to indicate some erasing or something as there has been confusion.The family lore says Elizabeth, Elizabeth Younger, Lucy Northern, ...Northern, depending on which information you receive.Samuel's son Samuel b. 1772 married Nancy LeGrand whos parents were John LeGrand and Elizabeth Younger.This may have added to some confusion.We have land records that show Samuel Bentley and his wife Lucy together several times.There are a couple of other Elizabeth Youngers that pop up in Halifax, but are married in the 1820's to other people.
I have seen several errors in the DAR before, so I question the accuracy.I am open to any truth...just looking for answers.Thanks for your info!Marsha
