Surname Saturday - LNU (Alice who married Thomas Wight, England to colonial Massachusetts)

It's Surname Saturday, and I'm "counting down" my Ancestral Name List each week.

I am working in the 9th great-grandmothers by Ahnentafel number, and I am up to Ancestor #2191 who is Alice LNU (1608-1665). [Note: the earlier great-grandmothers and 9th great-grandfathers have been covered in earlier posts.]

My ancestral line back through one generation in this LNU 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)

8. Frank Walton Seaver (1852-1922)
9. Hattie Louise Hildreth (1857-1920)

16. Isaac Seaver (1823-1901)
17. Lucretia Townsend Smith (1827-1884)


34.  Alpheus B. Smith (1802-1840)
35.  Elizabeth Horton Dill (1791-1869)

68.  Aaron Smith (1768-1841)
69.  Mercy Plimpton (1772-1850)

136.  Moses Smith (1732-1806)
137.  Patience Hamant (1735-1780)

272.  Henry Smith (1680-1743)
273.  Ruth Barber (1686-1761)

546.  Zechariah Barber (1656-1705)
547.  Abiel Ellis (1662-1716)

1094.  Thomas Ellis (1629-1690)
1095.  Mary Wight (1638-1693)

2190.  Thomas Wight, born about 1607 in England; died 17 March 1674 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States.  He married about  1627 in England.
2191.  Alice LNU, born about 1608 in Isle of Wight, Hampshire, England; died 15 July 1665 in Medfield, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States.

Children of Thomas Wight and Alice are:
*  John Wight (1653-????).
*  Thomas wight (1629-1690), married 1661 Mehitable Cheney (1643-1693).
*  Anne Wight (1634-????), married 1655 Isaac Bullard (1630-1676).
Mary Wight (1638-1693), married 1657 Thomas Ellis (1629-1690).
*  Samuel wight (1640-1716), married 1663 Hannah Albee (1640-1723).
*  Ephraim Wight (1646-1723), married 1645 Lydia Morse (1645-1722).
*  Henry Wight (1646-1680), married 1653 Jane Goodman (1630-1684).


Information about the Wight family was obtained from:

*  William Ward Wight, A Record Of Thomas Wight Of Dedham And Medfield And Of His Descendants 1635-1890 (Milwaukee, Wis. : Swain & Tate Printers, 1890).

Some derivative sources say that Alice is Alice Roundy, but I have seen no authoritative research on her ancestry.

I have done no original research on this family line.
