Raymond,
I have that Ruth did marry.I do not have that the other two married.Anne died at age 26 and Mary at age 34, both quite young.
Ruth married Simeon Prescott on Oct. 4, 1787.She died 3 years later.They had one child, Joseph, b. Oct. 1, 1788 and d. Nov. 24, 1809.With her death about 2 years after Joseph's birth, one can conjecture that she died in childbirth.
Joseph died at age 21, hardly much time to leave much of a mark on the world.
My source is the legwork of a good friend of mine, and early mentor Ms. Rosenmae Paige.Her modus operandi was tyo visit the local commumities and look through their records.Unfortunately she did not leave very good tracks about where she found the data.She completed her work in the late 1980's.
