Cindy,
I am posting here just in case your listed email has changed recently..
looks like we are closer "cousins" than first appears..
here is my line from Moses STAPLES & Judith EATON:
Their son Moses married Betsy Rafenal (spelled Rufnelle in the History of Swan's Island book)
Their daughter Sarah (Sally) STAPLES married Jacob Somes REED
Their son Allen G REEDmarried Emily T TORREY (see below)+
I descend from "your" Samuel STAPLES & Mercy CANE through Mary (Molly) STAPLES who married James JOYCE.
Their daughter Olive married Levi TORREY.
Their son Joseph R TORREY married Roxalana (sp.on her gravestone & the Swan's island book) RICHARDSON.
Their daughter Emily T TORREY married Allen G REED. (see above)+
Their daughter Louise May REED married Horace F BUTLER
They were my grandparents.
I'd love to find out more about your line down from both families.as well
as the CANE family of which I have very little information..
My search has only come up with Mercy being the daughter of Nicholas CANE & Mary PARSONS (no proof of this) as well as nothing on Nicholas (parents or siblings).
Hope you can enlighten me...
