• Notes

  RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. Depending on the version, the Andover Vital Records report both a Susan Frye and a Sara Frye with a death on 5 Mar 1661/2. Both are shown as daughters of John and Anne Frye. There are several solutions to this. (1) Two daughters died on the same day. (2) One recorder entered Sara for Susan or vice versa. (3) The record compilers could not interpret the handwriting with one indexer using Sara and another Susan. For now, it is probably better to retain both since the existing records support both. 2.
