  • Notes  Married:
    • Amos and Jemima jointly sold land to Aaron Simmons in 1854, as noted below. Aaron and Jemima were both heirs of Sherwood Simmons, presumably siblings. They also jointly sold land to John Register in 1870, relationship unknown, and to J.W. WRIGHT in 1884. At the time of the 1884 sale, they were living in Cumberland County.
