Families of the Children of Mary⁴ Washburn and William Snow (3rd)

Of the three sons of Mary Washburn and William Snow, only Seth, the second son, who moved to Oneida Co., NY, left a large number of descendants, with a large number of first-cousin intermarriages. The other two sons appear to have lived in Bridgewater, but neither left probate records. The elder daughter, Molly, had a son who moved to Cheshire Co., NH, where he became relatively important, but her children’s families are not well traced at this point. The younger daughter, Susanna, has not been traced. This family will not be carried on beyond this file, but I will add some additional probate records to this file as I am able to transcribe.

1857 ii Oliver Dunbar, born on 20 Jan. 1761 in Bridgewater,[527] died on 12 Oct. 1776 in Bridgewater, aged 15 years.[528]

1858 iii Lemuel Dunbar, born on 9 Mar. 1763 in Bridgewater,[529] probably died on 28 Sept. 1776 in Bridgewater, aged 14 years.[530]

1859 iv Samuel Dunbar (3rd), born on 13 June 1765 in Bridgewater,[531] moved to Taunton, MA, and married Abigail Ingells, of Taunton, on 12 May 1785 in Taunton.[532] They were living in Middleborough, MA, in the 1790 federal census, next door to his father, Samuel Dunbar,[533] but not in the 1800 federal census. They may have been living in Bridgewater, MA, in the 1800 federal census,[534] and in “South Parish,” Plymouth Co., MA, in the 1810 federal census.[535] On 29 Mar. 1814 Samuel Dunbar, Jr., of Taunton, sold to Zadock Leach, et al, land in Bridgewater, and his wife Abigail released her dower,[536] so he was probably the Samuel Dunbar living in Taunton, MA, in the 1820,[537] and 1830 federal censuses.[538] He died on 20 Mar. 1836 in Taunton, aged 71 years, of “consumption.”[539] They had children:

a. Betsy Dunbar, born on 22 Mar. 1793 in Middleborough.[540]

b. Mary Dunbar, born on 14 May 1795 in Middleborough.[541]

c. Abigail Ingoll Dunbar, born on 28 Aug. 1798 in Middleborough.[542]

d. (Probably others)

1860 v Alpheus Dunbar, born on 28 Feb. 1769,[543] died on 25 Sept. 1770 in Bridgewater.[544]
