Once again, for the umpteenth time, I am going over the information collected over the years on the Everitt family (today I found a photo on a web-site of their mill in NJ which is why I am back on them now). No matter how often I look at this "stuff" and especially the Everitt Family Book Committee information, two questions still persist: who came up with the idea that Richard had two wives - where does it say his "first wife" Mary died - and that she "probably' had a son Daniel.... If as reported in this book, Richard had a second wife, s/o Rev. Nehemiah Smith, why hasn't her name ever been found - his other daughters are found and named with spouses and - they are way too young to have married anyone to have a son Nicholas in 1652..... age 10 for motherhood? I found the book referred to on genealogy.com, "Desc. of Rev. Nehemiah Smith" by H. Allen Smith and have looked at it twice this evening - still the same information - nothing to link any of them up to Richard Everitt/Everett. So where did it all begin - how - why - these questions have been bugging me for years and I do not see any answers - what have I overlooked all this time/what am I still not seeing??? The other source used by the book committee is "Everitt Family Records" at Jamaica Library who "had mother of Nicholas and John Everitt as daughter of Nehemiah Smith ". Has anyone seen those family records in Jamaica Library? To me it just does not fit at all - can someone come up with a documented response so I can just put this big fat Everett notebook of mine back on the shelf and let it collect dust?
