My Family Line down from Capt. Ephraim

Hello,

While it is on my mind, I wanted to go to my sister's FTM web site and
write down my FROST line. Then I checked the WorldConnect Project to see
if it compares. I have just been reminded that I am descended from 2
daughters of Samuel FROST, b1716, and Abigail CUTTER, b1722. This family
was in West Cambridge, MA, the original name for Arlington, MA.

From www.rootsweb.com researchers have:

Samuel FROST and Abigail CUTTER being married in West Cambridge, MA
(Arlington) in 1741/42.

And they seem to have had 12 children, possibly their first child died at
birth, and possibly another son died at birth: Samuel, b1743, Abigail,
b1844, Rebecca, b1746, John, b1748, Martha, b1750, Sarah, b1752, John,
b1754, Hannah, b1758, Seth, b1760, William, b1762, Cooper, b1764, Lydia
Harrington FROST, b1766.

(My sister did not write down about siblings, so I can't compare that to her
notes.)

Sarah FROST, b1752, married my ancestor, John HUTCHINSON, b1745. And,
they had a son, Thomas M. HUTCHINSON, b1784.

Thomas M. HUTCHINSON married Betsy HOMER, b1786. And, they had a son,
Jacob Homer HUTCHINSON, b1818.

Jacob HUTCHINSON married Eliza Ann CROSBY, b1819. And, they had a
daughter, Adelaide Crosby HUTCHINSON, who was my great-great-grandmother.

Over to Eliza Ann CROSBY, b1819. Her parents were John CROSBY, b1797, and
Mary BUCKNAM, b1797.

John's parents were Simeon CROSBY, b1758, and Lydia Harrington FROST,
b1766 --- the daughter of Samuel FROST and Abigail CUTTER mentioned above.

Hope this helps someone.

Betty (near Lowell, MA)


Notes:

My main research of 15 years is on the KIDDER name. Adelaide HUTCHINSON
married Charles RICE of Lubec, Maine. They had 2 daughters, Louise RICE
and Edith RICE. They probably traveled to Maine and that is probably how
Louise met George "Sanford" KIDDER, b1870 Princeton, Maine. They married
in Princeton in 1898 and came down to the HUTCHINSON Farm in Winchester, MA,
to live. They had 3 children.

I have been disappointed for 15 years that no one has ever written a
family-history book about the descendants of 2 brothers, George HUTCHINSON
and Thomas, arriving in 1630 with "The Winthrop Fleet." During the next 6
months I hope to be able to at least start writing a document on their
descendants.

I have not been comfortable with what researchers said for a long time about
the parents of Simeon CROSBY who married Lydia Harrington FROST in
mid-1700's in MA. I spent the past winter investigating this. I have
decided that researchers are wrong. I believe that his parents are:
Jessaniah CROSBY and Mary HOSLEY of Billerica, MA Jessaniah is from the:
Simon of Billerica down to Joseph down to William line.

Most of my information is either from my sister's research of about 8 -10
years ago, and from reading what is available on-line. I do not "prove"
anything; I just post my "findings" on-line so that it will help others.
