Enoch's children sorted out and dated for me by Chris Dunham, who states his sources as Town Records of Newry, and Newton MA VR's, as well as common sense and comparing dates of birth for Enoch's children and grandchilden AND ages given on the 1850 census. Sounds reasonable to me!
Thanks also to Chris for the marriage dates of Enoch and his children, from the Town Records (TR) cited, as well as published Marriage Returns for Cumberland County.
