Thanks for responding.

At the top of the right col., click "search for 40 million graves."
Type in David Webster, and enter that he died in 1847.
I believe the result is David and his wife Elizabeth, parents of Franklin, interred at Moore Cemetery in Manchester, NH.
One fragmentary source I came across claims David;s wife Elizabeth was also nee Palmer.
Their son Franklin and wife Rebecca, and virtually all of their children, married or not, are in the 1880 census residing at New Boston, NH. Franklin is the only one, save David Webster's daughter Hannah (Webster) Calef, that I can fully follow through the census and various town histories to at least 1880.
Viranus apparently was the next youngest brother of Franklin, followed by a son William P. Webster. The latter two m. Ladd sisters of Unity, NH, daughts of Rev. Moses Ladd and Lorinda Robinson. Viranus was murdered by Indians at Acton, Minnesota in 1862 but I cannot find him between the 1840 census and 1862.
William P. Webster and wife Sarah Ladd were residing at Manchester apparently at his parent's residence in 1840, then as a separate household at Acworth, NH (adjoining Unity on the south) in 1850 with their only child, dau. Lorinda b. 1841, named for her maternal grandmother.
My interest is in the Robinson family connection, but was also interested in the Webster line due to being a descendant of the early Connecticut Websters. I thought that perhaps there was some irony there, but apparently not. As a school boy I frequently took a short-cut through the old cemetery at Salem, NH.
Had I known then and could have pulled records from the town, whose clerk was the aunt of my best friend... Oh well, that's how genealogical research often works.
