My family, 22 tests, are DNA verified descendants and during my 10+ years of research, everything that I've found shows that her birth name is Lucretia Lucinda Perry. The name "Seaborn" was actually a nickname as she was born at sea on the voyage to America. I have also seen her referred to as "Lucy" and "Cinda" in various other trees, but, I personnaly don't have anything to verify or disprove if these names were also a common name/nickname that she went by.
Anyone else uncover something that I missed? 😁

Thanks for the 'family lore' info, Randee.

I've updated her name, and place the text "Sea-born" as her first "a.k.a." name (which will make it show up as a 'nickname' in some places).

Middle names were rarely used during that time period in America; although many started 'adopting' them in the early 1800's, few born prior to 1800 had middle names given at birth (at least among the English-speaking).
