Joy -

Town Clerk
Wrentham Town Hall
79 South St.
Wrentham, MA 02093
Phone: 508-384-5415
Fax: 508-384-5415

That marriage record is in Wrentham VRs, vol. 2, p. 258.

Wrentham was indeed in Suffolk Co. in 1766 - it became part of Norfolk Co.
when the latter was established in 1793.

However, the Wrentham Town Clerk will not have Leah's birth - there are no
births recorded in Wrentham for any children of Ezekiel. Leah was born in
Walpole:

"BOYDEN, Leah, d. Ezekiel and Leah, Jan. 8, 1766." (Walpole VRs p. 17)
