I am hoping someone can help me reconcile the below as it directly affects several of the offspring of ABIEL TITUS, b. March 6,1751/52, Huntington, NY , d. Brooklyn 1839.
The information below directly contradicts several sources I have as well as what is generally recognized and accepted (and sourced, ex. Maunscript of Rev Anson Titus, etc).
Any insight would be most appreciated as it also is a major problem within my line. Further, it would indicate that Abiel had in fact had a 3rd wife between those generally accepted in Ruth Wood and Betsy Ireland.
Please let me know any thoughts.
