    Regarding Francis West of Duxbury who m. Margery Reeves.

    At times a question has been raised about whether Francis had a son Francis who married Susanna Soule, the dau. of George Soule.

    Recent and more exhaustive research, which was undertaken during the preparation of Volume 3 of Mayflower Families failed to establish the identity of Susanna's husband. It was concluded that his name was probably something other than West, although the volume assigns the name West to all of his descendants.

    Descendants of Francis and Susanna (Soule) West found in article published in Soule Newsletter (Soule Kindred), Vol. 2, No. 1, January 1968, entitled, "SUSANNA SOULE'S HUSBAND IDENTIFIED. SHE MARRIED FRANCIS WEST." Article originally published in The Mayflower Descendant, Vol. 26, No. 1, January 1924.

    Francis married Susanna Soule Abt 1661, Plymouth, New England. Susanna (daughter of George Soule and Mary Beckett) was born Abt 1642, Duxbury, Massachusetts; died 14 Nov 1707, Rhode Island. [Group Sheet]

    v. LYDIA, b. 11 Feb. 168­. This dau. is listed in WFW 7 but is not found in CW or DVR.vi. WILLIAM, b. 4 May 1683 (CW 4; WFW 7). There is a problem, about William, and for that matter, about the second Mary and Benjamin as well. These were not recorded at Duxbury, although they may be found, with birth dates, in CW 4. The source of the information is not stated, and it may be supposed that Cornwall was in error. And such may be the case, but they fill an extraordinary gap between 1682 and 1693 in the record at Duxbury. It was long thought that this was the William who m. 24 Dec. 1709 Abiah Sprague of Hingham (see George M. West, William West of Scituate, R.I. St. Andrews, Fla., 1919.) More recent research for Mayflower Families has led to the conclusion that the William who m. Abiah Sprague was b. 3 May 1681, the son of Francis and Susanna (Soule) (MF 3:10, 29).

    William married Abiah Sprague More recent research for Mayflower Families has le. Abiah was born Abt 1682. [Group Sheet]
