Hello to all Essex rooters,

In researching the Jeffrey Parsons of Gloucester line, I have a Mary
Harraden who married 1st James Davis on 24 Dec 1719 in Gloucester, and
2nd William Parsons on 15 Mar 1726/27 in Gloucester, Essex, MA. William
Parsons was born 15 Oct 1700 in Gloucester, the son of Nathaniel Parsons
and Abigail Haskell. William Parsons and Mary Harraden had 10 children
born between 1727 and 1747.

I have been unable to identify the parents of Mary Harraden. From the
Essex Co VR CD, there are two possibilities:

Mary Harraden, b 14 Mar 1699/00, dau of Edward Harraden & Hannah York
or
Mary Harraden, b 16 Feb 1701/02, dau of John Harraden and Sarah
Giddings.

Can anyone help me identify which Mary Harraden married William
Parsons????

Thanks in advance,
Pam Sears, on America's North Coast (Cleveland, OH)
