This MARRIAGE was in Rehoboth,Bristol Co.,MASS..I- NEED the
PARENT-NAMES for this Mary [CARY] and any other helpful info. on her
family. Did Not find her in 'Pilgrim,John Cary'.
Amos-5's Parents were Ephraim-4- HIX and his 3rd. wife,
Eunice [ LUDDEN ]. Amos was born c.1738 in Rehoboth....NEED the exact
date of birth,if available.
Children known to have been born in Rehoboth to Amos and Mary
HIX were
---Eliphalet-6-b..28.Aug.1761; Eliphalet-6-married on 25.Sep.1781
in Lanesborough,Berkshire,Mass. to a Hannah [OWEN] and perhaps died
in Farmington,Ontario Co.,N.Y.
--- Keziah-6- b.19.Sep.1763 OR 19 AUG.same year. No Further
information on Keziah. Male or Female? Died young? When? Where?
I have two more children, both males, born to this couple
but p.o.b. is UNK.:
--- a Jesse -6-HIX known to have married a Polly [CLARK ] c.1802 in
Cheshire, Berkshire,MA. .
--- And a brother Thomas-6- HIX ...p.o.b. uncertain,also-knowm to
have married c. 1798 to a Zilpha [.....] WHIPPLE ,probably a widow .
This family left Rehoboth around the late-1760's, migrating
to Richmond, Cheshire County, New Hampshire.,then moved on after
1776 to Lanesborough, Berkshire County,MASS.
During this time period [ late-1760's to after 1776--MARY
[ CARY ] 'HICKS,wife of Amos-5-HIX...'disappears' from any recorda
found so far. Did she die in Richmond,N.H.?
Am willing to exchange information on this HIX / HICKS line.
and ,especially grateful for information on this MARY [CAREY / CARY ]..
NOTE: Generally the spelling HIX was the earliest generations
spelling, I suppose from england..Later,there came to be both
spellings......... Humor: On one Index I was searching in
Pittsfield,Mass this past Aug.2012--and published in Berkshire
County he late 1800's-remarked that HICKS was a derogatory term for --
[my words] --"- persons of low-level intelligence" :Therefore they
were not included in that particular Index. [SMILE!] Charlotte

Poor Me! I have a double line of HICKS!
