Source: Ord dates from IGI of 1988. Place of birth from same source. FHD has Samuel uncleared on Bapt and Endw with the date of Sld to pnts as 2 April 1991. IGI has the dates shown. Doesn't the FHD read their own IGI.
Source -Catherine Fessenden Larkin states she got the following data on Ruel from "Gravestones-Cemetary at North Yarmouth, Cumberland County, Maine". (I am not sure if this is a reference or the real cemetary) These are the data: Ruel's 1st? wife-Deborah (Kent?) b. 1791 d.1826 2nd? wife-Betsey Y. b. 1792 d. 1876. The order of the wives is in question, however since Deborah died before Betsey, it seems likely that Deborah was the first wife. After submission I found in IGI the following dates for Ruel Drinkwater: B: 6 Apr 1977; E:6 May 1977; SP:7 Oct 1977; All done in SLAKE.
