About Jerusha Taft

ID: I1278 Name: Jerusha Doolittle Reference Number: 1813 Sex: F 1 Birth: 21 AUG 1777 in Warwick, MA 2 3 Death: 11 APR 1863 in Warwick, MA Note:

1860 US Census: Putney, Windham, VT: With son Cincinnatus and his family? Also there in 1850.

Check locations for marriage and death (Phil Dascola claims Warwick, MA for both). I tend to believe that Doolittle children would not have remainedin Warwick after 1778.

O.P. Allen (p. 20) claims that she first married 1795 Squire Fletcher, son of Gen. Samuel Fletcher of Townsend, VT by whom she had seven childrenbetween 1796 and 1811. _UID: 385E10E2FFAB424497FDE88F855762ECED48
