Notes for Bethia Lindley

http://www.condit-family.com/ps32/ps32_422.html

Lyon Family genealogist indicate that Benjamin Lyon married Bethia Condit although to this date there is no documentation to prove the connection.2375 If Bethia was a Cundict/Condit, she would be a sister of Peter by John Cundict’s first wife and there is no known sisters of Peter. The Lindsley genealogy provides a convincing proof that Benjamin Lyon married Bethia Lindley, John Cundict’s married Deborah Lindsley, and Matthew Williams married Ruth Lindley, all daughters of Francis Lindley, but there has been no hard proof found to substantiate the first two marriages.537
