[nsroots] BENT/MORSE Correction

[Carol Hathaway]

I found an incorrect entry in a printout for Desc's of William BENT. The below
dates are the corrected dates.

Please check your files for Samuel Stillman BENT: born:1810, Wilmot, Kings
County, (sic-Annapolis County?) NS, Canada who married: Sophia MORSE. She was
born:  25 Aug 1815; died: 30 Sept 1843. I have their parents names and Samuel
S. BENT & Sophia MORSE's children's names.

Source: "The Annapolis County Probate Will Books" by Marble: Vol # 3- Walker
Ref # 's 385 through # 800. # 399...p 32, E: 28 Oct.1843: LWT of Samuel MORSE,
Sen., of Annapolis dated 15 August 1842. Wife: Amaret. Children: Elias MORSE,
Jun., Major MORSE, Martin MORSE and Sophia BENT the wife of Stillman S. BENT.
@ p4, probate granted to Martin and Major MORSE on 28 Oct 1843. Estate Folio:
M69 (1843): Sophia was deceased by 16 April 1870, her children: Mary BENT,
Harriet REED the wife of John B. REED, Jessie EASSON wife of Alexander EASSON.
A John EMSLIE may have been a son-in-law.

Since I still have two Samuel Stillman BENT (1810 - 1868) entries: married to
1. Sophia MORSE (1815 - 1843) and 2.Hannah Sophia MORSE (1824 - 1888) ...this
still needs a lot more work.

If you have this family might you be able to help by placing them properly?
