    Notes 
    • I'm not confident with this family connection between Mary "Polly" Higgins and Uriah.

      I've discarded the 1755 date of birth for Mary as given by Dick Dutton and his GEDCOM from 1999, as this does not match up with Uriah's age, and makes her really old to be having 7 children.
