Olive,
-Job & Lydia (Tillinghast) Almy
-Deborah & John Slocum [Dartmouth, MA]
-Elsie & Michael Deuel [both buried Alburg, Grand Isle, VT]
-Elizabeth & William Bell [lived/died Alburg, VT]
-Orlando & Semantha Blackmon [lived/died Alburg, VT]
-Rev. Ralph & Mary Edna Leach [Morrisville, Lamoille, VT]
-Anna G. & William H. Robinson [my great grandparents]
The weak link is the marriage of Michael Deuel and Elsie Slocum, which I cannot find nor can I pin them down in theOblong or associated Dutchess, NY, or some smaller Quaker settlement in northern NY, if they were still members of the Friends when they left Dartmouth.They reportedly had six children, daughter Elizabeth being 3rd born.The name Deuel is, in my opinion, a misreading of the name Devel in which the old-style "v" was written as a "u" and "u" as a "v". Devel was itself a corruption of Devol/Davol, descending through George Soule, Jr's line.
