Aaron ROBERTS ⁷⁶

   User ID: 128.

  General Notes:

Aaron was a carpenter. They were living in Berwick by 1778,
when Mary was admitted to the Second Church there. Aaron joined
that church on November 24, 1782. It appears to be his family
listed there at the 1790 census, consisting of two males over
sixteen (Aaron and Aaron, Jr..), two males under sixteen (Moses
and William), and three females (Mary, Mary, Jr.., and
Bathsheba). He is probably the Aaron Roberts who was in Berwick
in 1810, apparently with some other family members, with a
family consisting of one male over 45, one male 26-45, one male
16-26, one male under 10, one female over 45, one female 26-45,
and four females under 10.

Tate's Journal also records the birth of twins James and Mary
Roberts, born August 1,1761 to Jane Mimmy, who "Swore on James
Roberts" implying that they were his children. (NEHGR, January
1920, p.38) The journal later gives the dates of their birth as
"Thursday, Aug. 1st 1771" and calls them James and Molly.
(NEHGR1 July 19201 p.180) The latter entry is among many other
events listed as occurring in 1771.
