Found you on the internet and hope you can answer some questions.
I too am related to the Capen family through Bethiah Capen, b. 19 Sept. 1756. She is
the dauther of Robert Capen, who married Nov. 1, 1744 Jane Lyon. Their eighth child
Bethiah, married in Stoughton Moses Hayden ,15 Nov. 1780. Bethiah's line is, Robert
5, Samuel 4, Samuiel 3, John 2, Barnard 1.
My line goes as far as Robert Hayden, born about 1790, son of Bethiah Capen and Moses
Hayden. Can not confirm
Robert's birth or his wife's surname Rhoades or Ross. The information in
"The Capen Family, descendants of Bernard Capen of Dorchester, by Rev. Charles Albert
Hayden", does not back up my research.
Husband of Bethiah, Moses Hayden subposedly born in Stoughton, but do not find a
record. Book says parents may be Ebenezer Hayden and wife Mary, do not find proof. I
Believe he is the son of a Moses Hayden born 1725 in Milton, Ma. Can anyone help find
Moses' parants?
Thank you
