  • Notes 
    • Two "Rebekah" vs "Rebecca" Phelps (Wilson vs Willson)
      There are two spelling variations on Rebekah (unknown last name) vs Rebecca Phelps. They are different people. Birthdates of children not a match though some names are the same. They appear to have both lived in Petersham, Massachusetts. Family information not a match. Surname of "Wilson" vs "Willson" is also spelled differently on many documents. Verify records/dates/names before attaching. This has been pretty messy to sort out.
