Letter from Edwin Merryman <edchem@@bellatlantic.net>
Hi,
I thought I'd tell you there is nothing to prove John Hale, Sr. was the s/o Nicholas Hale, Jr. and Frances Garrett. Also his son Joseph married Rachel {unknown}. He was a brother to Thomas that married Jane Armstrong. Joseph and Rachel were my 4th great grandparents.Nicholas I or Sr.'s wifes name was not Travers. John Charles Merryman {not Charles John he dropped use of John}m Millicent Hale, was a grandson of Charles Merryman, Sr. and Mary{Hale} King widow of Henry King. She was the d/o
Nicholas, Sr. and Mary {?}.

Sincerely Ed Merryman
