I am in the 8th great-grandmothers and I'm up to Ancestor #1427, who is Elizabeth STOKES (1639-1704) [Note: the earlier great-grandmothers and 8th great-grandfathers have been covered in earlier posts].
My ancestral line back through one generation of this STOKES family line is:
1. Randall J. Seaver
2. Frederick Walton Seaver (1911-1983)
3. Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002)
4. Frederick Walton Seaver (1876-1942)
5. Alma Bessie Richmond (1882-1962)
10. Thomas Richmond (1848-1917)
11. Julia E. White (1848-1913)
22. Henry Arnold White (1824-1885)
23. Amy Frances Oatley (1826-1864)
44. Jonathan White (1805-1850)
45. Miranda Wade (1804-1850)
88. Humphrey White (1758-1814)
89. Sibel Kirby (1764-1848).
178. David Kirby (1740-1832)
179. Martha Soule (1743-1828)
356. Ichabod Kirby (1705-1793)
357. Rachel Allen (1708-1801)
712. Robert Kirby (1674-1757)
713. Rebecca Potter (1681-1773)
1426. Nathaniel Potter, born 1637 in Portsmouth, Newport, Rhode Island, United States; died 20 October 1704 in Dartmouth, Bristol, Massachusetts, United States. He was the son of 2852. Nathaniel Potter and 2853. Dorothy. He married about 1664 in Portsmouth, Newport, Rhode Island, United States.
1427. Elizabeth Stokes, born about 1639 in Portsmouth, Newport, Rhode Island, United States; died after 20 November 1704 in probably Dartmouth, Bristol, Massachusetts, United States.
Children of Nathaniel Potter and Elizabeth Stokes are:
* Stokes Potter (1664-1718), married 1702 Elizabeth Sherman (1670-1718).
* John Potter (1666-1769), married 1688 Mary Tripp (1670-????).
* Nathaniel Potter (1667-1736), married 1688 Joanna Wilbore (1668-1759)
* William Potter (1671-1720), married 1706 Anne Durfee (1676-1731).
* Benjamin Potter (1673-1709), married 1697 Mary (1677-????).
* Mary Potter (1675-1752), married 1689 Samuel Wilbur (1664-1740).
* Samuel Potter (1675-q748), married 1701 Mary Benton (1681-????).
* Ichabod Potter (1677-1755), married (1) 1699 Margaret Helme (1679-1727); (2) 1727 Eleanor Capron (1677-1755).
* Rebecca Potter (1681-1773), marred 1701 Robert Kirby (1674-1757)
* Elizabeth Potter (1683-17134), married 1707 Benjamin Tripp (1678-1754).
* Katherine Potter (1683-1763), marred 1716 Thomas Cornell (1685-1763).
Information about Elizabeth Stokes was included in:
* Alden G. Beaman, Ph.D. "A Line of Descent from Nathaniel Potter of Portsmouth,"Rhode Island Genealogical Register, Volume 20, Number 1 (1999), pages 35-38.
I have found no helpful books or periodical articles that define Elizabeth Stokes parents. There are several possible Stokes families in online family trees, but most of them are without source citations.
