  • Notes 
    • name: Betsey or Betty

      Children: WFT #4:0735 has an additional child, Daniel Read, b. 18 Sept. 1754. This WFT was submitted by Maurice "Hackett" Barney of Manhattan Beach, California. Currently (June 1999) John Culp is contacting Maurice to see if he has documentation for this Daniel.

      Well, I'll be darned ---- would you believe that this Daniel Read is named in the GBFA, p.54: "His daughter Lucy md. Daniel Anthony, and their daughter was the renowned Susan B. Anthony."

      GBFA pp.53-54: "They moved from Swansea to Cheshire, Mass. sometime after 1756. Joshua Read died June 23, 1777 at Cheshire, and Betty (Barney) Read died at Cheshire Sept. 18, 1815, aged 82. She is buried at the Stafford Hill Cemetery."
