Subject: [MANORFOL] Error in CD of Sprague's "Genealogies of the Families of Braintree..."
Date: Fri, 04 Oct 2002 23:39:45 -0400


Dear List:

The Card in the subject CD-ROM prepared from the microfilm records of
Waldo Chamberlain Sprague, and numbered [5312] contains a major error in
the lineage of Joseph Wales as follows:

It should read "JOSEPH^5 WALES (Joseph^4, Nathaniel^3-2-1)" etc,

Instead it reads:

"JOSEPH^5 WALES (Thomas^4, Nathaniel^3-2-1)" etc,

BTW. Author Elisha T. Thayer, in citing Micah Thayer's marriage, calls
Abigail (who first married Joseph^5 above, "Abigail Wales", which made
for a lot of mischief for me, as I could not connect her until I read
Sprague, who connects her to her parents, Samuel Jr. and Hannah (White)
Bass.

Regards,
