Robert Fowler
On which date was ROBERT FOWLER born in Salisbury or Salem, Essex County? I have tried to research the LDS files. Was it 1759 or 1760? Robert Fowler of Salisbury married Mary (Molly) Lowell about 1781 in Amesbury, Essex County. They had five or six children in Salisbury. According to LDS records, Robert Fowler died in 1842 in Salisbury, Essex County. Who were Robert Fowler's true parents?

Hitchings - Lynn
I am trying to find some information on the parents of Benjamin Hitchings. He married Jane Ballard and had a son John Ballard Hitchings, (married Zeruiah Ingalls Sweetser) to whom I am related. Would like to contact one of the Essex County genealogists to put together my family tree. I have quite a bit of pieces and need the puzzle finished. My father is 84 and I would like to do this for him.

Looking for any information on Alfred Freeman Smith and Catherine M. Hassett, unsure what state they were married, most children born in Beverly and Marblehead Mass. Catherine came from Nova Scotia and Alfred was supposedly from Exeter NH.
Also would like any information on their daughter Hattie Ella Smith, she had a son Frank Neil Gould b. 17 Feb 1883, d. 1 Feb 1970, m. 28 May1910 Alice Louise Crowley b.17 Jul 1890, d. 10 Nov 1968. Frank was a postal worker in Lynn, Mass. they later moved to Alton NH. Hattie was 20 when Frank was born and died at age 23, and is buried in the public area of Pine Grove Cemetery, Lynn Mass. Hattie was purportedly born in Portsmouth NH.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

James Parker of Groton
You ran a series of articles on James Parker of Groton by Marilyn Fitzpatrick beginning Aug. 1993. Has more information been found on this family and the genealogy updated?
I am seeking the parents of Simon who married Mary Bowker around 1740.
Thank You

Alfred P. Bowen, M.D.
I found a photo at an antique mall in Tennessee today. It was taken in Lynn about 1886. The subjects are the children of Joseph H. and Caroline Bowen--I ran through the censuses from 1850 to 1920 to confirm that.
One of the children was Alfred P. Bowen, a physician who was still living in Lynn in 1930. There must be someone living today who is kin to these children and would treasure this photograph.
So, I thought I'd write and ask if any of your members or researchers have an interest in the family.
