Hello All,
Just wanted to share a fantastic resource of Family History information that
I found today. The Brigham Young University online archives at
http://contentdm.lib.byu.edu/cdm4/search.php
You will find scans of complete books on genealogy there and I was pleased
to be able to find, among other works, the Vital Records of Rhode Island
1636-1850 and also a nice history of Swansea, Massachusetts.
I found a lot.
Happy Searching!
Cheers,
Jeffrey

The other researchers and you are correct. I got father and son Isaac's
mixed up. Sorry about that. I will definitely have to pay more attention from
now on.

Hi Max,
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you. Are you saying the unknown second wife of the Isaac that married Thankful Maker is Charity Peace? If so, the Isaac(1685) who's second wife was Charity Peace was first married to Mary Berry and the Isaac(1714) that married Thankful was the s/o of Isaac & Mary Berry.
Most Chase researchers I've been in contact with can't agree that Isaac(1714) had a second wife or that Thomas & Judah were his son's. They are not included in the list of children of Isaac & Thankful. Thus leaving Isaac & Thankful with 9 children not 11. The rest is as I have it.

I have only qo children listed for this family. However, if do not have a second wife listed. I have located a name of a possible 11th child. Could I have missed "Reliance" born about 1747 between Obediah and Isaac? I do have the children, Thomas and Judah included among those of Thankvul's other cildren. Thanks for the help. I haven't worked on this line for a good many years and may have just lost a name off my records. Jeanne Lane

Thank you, Jeffrey. Don't you suppose "Carr Chase" would be "Carroll Chase".
This child was surely named before automobiles.
For example my ancestor, Freedom Chase, ---whose name has somehow
erroneously become attached to Chase Freedom credit cards--- was born in
1799. Why would anyone make that connection?
On the other hand, the legal terms "free chase" and "frank chase" were
significant in land records of that time.
The name Freedom Chase has been spelled in records as "Free Chase", "Freed
Chase", and "Fredom Chase". The word "freedom" in relation to our American
heritage is also spelled "fredom" in historical documents and newspapers.

I need some assistance creating an Aroostook War database of Chases and am asking for assistance. I have the militia records so I know who was here but not who's family they belong in. Maine at that time was in a state of beaurocratic chaos. Massachusetts was still hanging on to pre-statehood information and post 1840 was a time of intense mobilization within and out of Maine. IF you know of any family members who "passed through" Maine between Massachusetts and points west, particularily to develop the timber industry of the Michigan/Indiana/Minnesota territories, I would appreciate that information. My own line descends from Aguila, Thomas (Rebecca Follansbee) Nathan (Joanna Pike) and I have those lines. I have identified MOST of Moses & Anne Follansbee through Roger and Abigail but get stuck after Augusta/Clinton. I know the Washington County Chases descend from William of Boston area but Litchfield and surrounding areas have a brick wall backwards. Thanks. Roberta

Jeffrey, We don't really have to go out our CHASE line to find an interesting name to add to your list of names not to name your baby daughter. Why not add the name of Thankful Maker to your list?

I read our story the other day about the retirement of federal judges Jerry
Buchmeyer and Barefoot Sanders. And I know I was supposed to think deep
thoughts about important legal cases.
But mostly I kept thinking: Barefoot? *Barefoot?! *Where in the world did
that name come from?
Obviously, I've been hearing about Barefoot Sanders for years. But for some
reason, his odd first name really jumped out at me that day.
Well, what a coincidence. Later that same day, I heard about a new book from
a Fort Worth author. It's called *Bad Baby Names*.
And sorry, judge, but I think "little bouncing baby Barefoot" sure
qualifies.
At least he didn't have it as bad as many others featured in the book – Fat
Meat Fields, Pickle Parker, Harry Pigg, Panties Moberg and Toilet Queen, to
name a few.
And, yes, those are all real names. They come straight from U.S. census
records.
The author, Michael Sherrod, said one question kept coming to his mind as he
researched the book: "What were these parents thinking?"
Surely Mr. and Mrs. Royd just *weren't *thinking when they named their
little girl Emma.
Emma Royd? No parents would do that to a child on purpose, would they?
Now, I realize that I'm perilously close to casting stones from a glass
house here. But I didn't have any choice about my funny last name. And I
wasn't about to give my children certain first names.
Lowe, for example. Or Anita.
But other parents apparently can't resist a pun. Hence we have Nighten Day,
Blacken White, Lotta Bull, Tuna Fish, Bowling Lane, Num Butt, Amanda Love
and Carr Chase.
Michael looked at census records going all the way back to 1790, so it's
possible that a baby got named Carr Chase long before those became the
favorite words of every TV news director.
Similarly, I'm going to bet that Mr. and Mrs. Pack named their little girl
Fanny before that became the favorite fashion accessory for vacationing
nerds.
Every schoolchild in Texas hears about Gov. James Stephen Hogg's daughter,
Ima. (Contrary to schoolyard lore, she did not have sisters Ura or Wera.)
But poor Ima Hogg was certainly not the only person so afflicted. She shared
her misery with Ima Weiner, Ima Reck, Ima Nutt, Ima Pain and Ima Butt, to
name a few.
Believe it or not, there are worse names than these. They're just not in the
book. Michael said he and co-author Matthew Rayback wanted to keep their
book PG, so they left out the really naughty names. "We got kind of risqué,
but we tried to keep it appropriate as a baby shower gift," he said.
Michael, 55, is actually in the names business. He runs Ancestry Publishing,
which publishes books, a magazine and a Web site related to genealogy.
Naturally, the company also published *Bad Bay Names*.
He flies each week from his home in Fort Worth to the company headquarters
in Provo, Utah. "What can I say? I love Fort Worth," he said.
Genealogy researchers have always passed around funny-name discoveries, he
said. "It dawned on me one day that someone gave these names to babies," he
said. "That's where the idea for the book was born. It's one thing to be an
adult named Mustard M. Mustard, but it's another thing to think about a baby
named Mustard M. Mustard."
As for why parents give children such names, Michael said he found little
research on the question. "What we did find is that they wanted their
children to be unique, to have an identity all their own," he said.
"And apparently a lot of people who have these names are very proud of them.
It gives them a little bit of status they wouldn't have with a normal name."
It certainly worked for one Barefoot Sanders. I found an old story that
explained that Barefoot – his middle name – was his grandmother's maiden
name.
He was embarrassed about it as a boy but discovered what an asset it could
be when he ran for student office at the University of Texas.
I'm glad it worked out for him. I just hope the same is true for Vaseline
Heart, Fertile Suggs, Chinchilla Belt, Miscellany Marchbanks and especially
you, Hugh Jass.

Hi Judy,
The first divorce in Plymouth colony was that of Thomas Burgess in 1660. "4 Thomas Burgess, Jr. was divorced by his wife in Plymouth Colony in 1661; this was the first divorce in America. Dean Burgess has written a novel based on the story of that divorce in An Unclean Act (New York: Permanent Press, 2002)."
In the Plymouth colony records, I found this account of a divorce from 1668:
June 3, 1668 (GC, PCR 4:187):
"Att this Court, vpon the oftens and earnest suite of William Tubbs to be diuorsed from his wife, shee haueing for a longe time sequestered herselfe from him, and will not be perswaded to returne to him, the Court haue directed letter the Road Iland to the gouernment there, in whose jurisdiction shee now is, to request them to take course that shee may be informed of the Courts pleasure and determination, that incase shee, the said Marcye Tubbs, the wife of William Tubbs, doe not returne vnto her said husband between this date and the Court of his magesteries to be holden att Plymouth the first Tusday in July next, that then hee, the said William Tubbs, shalbe diuorced from her. [Divorce granted on July 7, 1668]"
Several more followed this so it was not that uncommon.

I am researching for a new-to-genealogy Chace family member a possible
Mayflower connection to William White.
I am trying to place Experience White, b. 8 August, 1771, who m. Philip
CHASE (CHACE), 28 Feb 1790, in Freetown, MA ( Dartmouth VRs), both of
Freetown, possibly in the family of Peregrine WHITE of Freetown. Experience
(White) Chace d. 1830 in Delaware County. Philip is the son of Edward Chase
(George Bedford, Walter, Benjamin, William) and Abigail (Strange) Paine.
Peregrine White of Freetown m. Mary Howland of Middleborough 3 May 1770
(Middleborough VRs). Peregrine was the son of Paul White and Elizabeth
Curtis and was b. 23 December 1748. He is a direct descendant of William
White. Peregrine appears in the Federal Census at Freetown in 1790, with
one male under 16, two males over 16 and two females. (Of course, Experience
at this time would be in the household with new husband Philip Chace and not
be enumerated in any White family.) Peregrine appears in the 1800 Federal
Census, still in Freetown, with one male 10-16, one male 16 to under 26, one
male 26 and under 45, and one male 45 and older. Females are one aged 16
to under 26 and one other over 45.
Experience White and her husband Philip Chace and many others of his Chace
family from Freetown resettled in Delaware County, NY (Delhi, later called
Hamden) in 1791.
Experience White and Philip Chace named their 2nd son Thomas WHITE Chace
(after her brother Thomas?) and named a second daughter Polly (nickname for
Mary - her mother?) and a fourth daughter Hope (after her sister or
grandmother?) And certainly Experience herself could have been named for
Peregrine's maternal grandmother, Experience Palmer.
I know that Thomas, Malachi and Hope are listed elsewhere in various family
trees as children of Peregrine and Mary (Howland) White. This would agree
with Census enumerations. There may have been another son according to the
Census of 1800, although he is not listed in the Census of 1810. Is it
possible that Experience is also a daughter - having missed the 1790 Census
as she was a Chase at that time?
There was an Experience White, born in Freetown 1772, who m. a Jonas
Blanchard in 1795. That Experience White was the daughter of John White and
Mercy Hathaway and is not the Experience White for whom I am searching. She
is a descendant through Resovled White. That family had removed to NH
before 1790.
The other WHITE males of Freetown enumerated in the Federal Census of 1790
were Jenkins, Samuel, Thomas and Zebulon. For various reasons, I have
eliminated them as possibles as the father of Experience. Since Experience
was given as "of Freetown" in her marriage record of the same year (1790), I
do believe her father should be there, too.
I have not seen any wills of the above-named. I do not know whence the
birthdate of 8 August, 1771 or the death-date of 1830 that George
Chamberlain used for Experience White in his work on the Chase/Chace family.
Does anyone know anything about "my" Experience? If she is not Peregrine's
child, does anyone have another lead? If she is Peregrine's child, then all
of Experience and Philip Chase's descendants would be of Mayflower descent
also.
