Keep in mind: What the page says: Confirmed: 'Jonathan Dow adgfc .. m So Hampton May 24, 1764, Lydia Huse d Feb 19, 1793', with a children list that includes 'j David b July 12, 1782'; other children and other Dow lines are on the page. The book says a family Bible exists with entries in Jonathan's own hand. Whether these are our people: Likely, not Confirmed. The tree's Jonathan Dow (1735-1805), Lydia Huse (1745-1793) and David Dow (1782-1862) are the same names and dates, but the later generations rest on this one printed genealogy, as the Hampton story already says.
