Jemima Waters

Jemima Howard, dau. of Edward Howard and Eleanor Tarbox, was born in Lyme, Essex Co.,Connecticut on Dec. 10, 1719. She married on Apr. 14, 1740 with SAMUEL WATERS, son of Samuel Waters and Anne Sterling. Her parents must have removed to the Hebron, Connecticut area because that is where she and Samuel married. He was born 1719 in Hebron, Connecticut. They had seven children, all born in Hebron between 1741 and 1757. Sometime before the Revolution, Samuel moved his family to Amenia in Duchess Co., New York.

Children: (Known): Sterling Waters (1757-1809).

Samuel fought in the Revolution. According to the DAR, he served from New York and his spouse was Jemima Howard. Neither Samuel, his wife, or any of his children collected any penstion. No record has been found of the death of Jemina. She may have died before the move to Amenia,, because the mother of Samuel's last two children is rumored to have been a woman other than Jemima.
