About David Merrill

Some published sources give David Merrill's parents as Jacob Merrill and Elisabeth Wyatt and his birth date as 12 NOV 1768 in Plymouth, Grafton, New Hampshire. However, no birth or baptism records for him have been found. Also, the will of Jacob Merrill, dated 11 MAR 1811, states he has 12 children and then lists the names of six boys and six girls. A thirteenth child who died at the age of 11 is not mentioned. David Merrill was alive at the time of Jacob's will and should have been named in the will, but he was not. Until his parentage can be properly documented, his parentage should still be considered unknown although he is likely to be related to Jacob Merrill based on geography alone
