INDEX
wager69
Beaman lists Norman Bentley's wife as "Mercy Tanner, born ca 1770." The Tanner family tree is fairly extensive, but no one named Mercy, other than the Mercy Tanner who married Joshua Gardner in 1763, has ever emerged. The idea that Beaman's Mercy Tanner is actually Marcy Tanner, daughter of William Tanner and Susannah Thurston, is a theory, but fits quite well, especially since Marcy Tanner definitely was born in 1770. A little extra research is in order, but this theory looks good so far.
