Diantha: According to the DREW history which I just located in Durham, Strafford Co. NH, Olive Drew born 3 June 1742 daughter of David Drew and Abigail Boody. Olive married Rev. Joseph Boody, he born 15 May 1752. Mrd. ca 1772. David was the son of Thomas and Tamsen Meserve Drew of Madbury then Durham. However, in the History of Durham, Olive is not mentioned as a daughter of David and Abigail, only a Molly who married 21 Feb 1774, David Swain. In Early Marriages of Strafford County, NH, I found: David Drew, son of Thomas and Mary, m (1) Abigail Boody b near 1718; daughter of Zachariah and m (2) Mary Evans, widow (I think this is the line I am trying to follow! :) Also in the same work I found the Rev. Joseph Boodey officiating at the marriage of Aaron Drew, son of David and Martha (again the line I am following) when he married Elizabeth Gilman of New Durham 20 Feb 1822 at Barnstead. There are so many Drew families in NH especially concentrated in Strafford Co. no wonder we all get confused - even the compilers of these "histories"! Anyway, hope this helps a little. Glenys
