About Jane Lanphear

JANE HULET was born in 1647 in Westerly, Washington Co., RI.1183

Married

  1. GEORGE LANPHERE married before 1679 in Westerly, Washington Co., RI.182,1183  In an old Church in Westerly, an entry in the records show the following:
  • The Date Mar 2, 1678. We repaired to the waterside of the hill after Church service, then Reverand Brother Hicox baptized George Lanphere and he came out of the water rejoicing, and his wife went into the water but was fainthearted and came out unbaptized. source: William G. Smith. Children
  1. Richard LANPHERE
  2. Shadrack LANPHERE
  3. JOHN LANPHERE,

Note

There is no proof at all (though the miracle of copiers tell us otherwise) of the existance of a Jane Hulet, even less as a wife of George (1) Lanphear. The most recent discussion of this myth is found in "George Lanphear of Westerly, R.I., and his Descendants," New England Historical and Genealogical Register, 153 [1999]: 131-140. This article covers the parents of the immigrant and listing his children. Another article with this journal is in the works (at the editor) covering the children of the second generation listing the third. (http://boards.ancestry.com/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=14&p=surnames.lanp...)



Whether George Lanphear married a woman named Jane Anne Hulot is debated among genealogists, because no marriage record has been found, and none of George's daughters, granddaughters, or great-granddaughters were named Jane, as would be expected in that era.
