The Killingworth Second Society Ledger

The records for the Killingworth Congregational Second Society were kept in a simple little ledger. It is organized into sections that cover about a ten year span. Each section is subdivided into a seperate section for births, deaths, marriages and church membership. The information is listed under a heading for a given year. Under the heading for a given year the records are listed in chronological order. After any one ten year span the process is repeated. This ledger contains the recorded history for the first four generations of Griffins. We have include here the marriage records for some of our family. Thankful and Nathan Buell, Samuel's marriages to Mercy Nettleton and Mercy Steevens, Samuel and Mercy Bailey Steeven's daughter Mercy to Ithamar Pelton, Worden and Rhoda Hull, Worden's daughter Mercy to Daniel Stevens, Samuel and Mariah's daughter Polly to Reuben Doud
