Good Morning all,

It appears that it was indeed Zachariah Harvey (Dr.) who witnessed this
land transaction. Zachariah Harvey b. 1711 m. Anne (Ame) Adams b. 1715
on
Aug 1735 in Pomfret, Windham, CT where they had one son, John in 1736.
Their second ch. Ame was born in Worcester, Worcester, MA in 1740.
Zachariah Jr. b. 1744, Solomon b. 1745, Daniel b. 1747, Rachel b. 1750
Daniel b. 1752 and Darius b. 1754 were also born in Worcester,
Worcester, MA.
Last but not least! was my 4th gr-grandfather Isaiah b. 1758 in
Princeton,
Worcester, MA.

Thanks for putting this onlist as it is a keeper for me!

Bill Harvey
