https://archive.org/details/sevengenerations00chas/page/41/mode/2up Refers to two wives of Phebe Chase’s father John Chase.

See the page before: https://archive.org/details/sevengenerations00chas/page/38/mode/2up

John Chase married 1) Elizabeth Bingley 2) Lydia Challis.

Lydia Challis (2nd wife) was the mother of Phebe Chase

Phebe, m. 25 Aug. 1726, Nathaniel Tucker; living in 1730

I am leery that the Nathaniel Tucked who died 1770 in Essex County MA was the same person as the Nathaniel Tucker in New Hampshire in 1745.

Erica Howton I agree but they are making me crazy -- can we add an additional no name wife for the Nathaniel who married Phoebe and MP and lock these relationships so that we can build on the Sarah Stevens Tucker in the future?
An unmerge of Sarah Stevens from Sarah Stevens Bishop Chittendon gave her back to Nathaniel as wife

Why an additional wife to MA Nathaniel Tucker? There was a NH Nathaniel who had 3 children with a Sarah Stevens. So that’s the separate tree.

Sorry! I got confused by
"Children by first wife, born in Newbury:
Children by second wife, born in Newbury:"
and didn't read it completely--, I see this is regarding Phoebe, yes

I’ll take it out of profile.

It looks like the children of Sarah Tucker were born at Plaistow NH but baptized at Haverhill MA. They’re only 5 miles apart.

I do think it’s likely that Nathaniel Tucker married 1) Phebe Tucker 2) Sarah Tucker

Erica Howton oh wow! This is awesome.
I see you working on them and I am very thankful...
They may NOT be my direct ancestors after alll but they are someone's and I am thrilled to see them come together.

to see them "fleshed out" and differentiated and disambiguated...
I will say again that Geni is where bad trees/repeated errors come to be corrected.

Thank you.

And as for my grandmother Nancy, I would SO MUCH RATHER see NO parents than to have the WRONG parents attached.

Virginia is much tougher than New England, which has good vital records. I like the easy way. :)

But more and more, and this is an example, it’s so important to pinpoint geography. Once I understood that Haverhill & Plaistow are only 5 miles apart, and organized records for the children, it jumped out.

And the moment we see “any” profile on geni born in Virginia or Carolina to parents born in New England, jump on it. There’s the Quaker relocation to NC. Some Puritan minsters gave it a go in VA but quickly were chased out. A couple of mariner, traders, etc. and the famous Stephen Hopkins of Jamestown and Plymouth Colony. But that’s about it: the division between North and South began in 1621 and still exists today. When they poured out of New England, it was to the Midwest.
