Rickard, Henry

Notes:

*Samuel Rickard and his brother Henry both had children named Bethiah,
Henry and Elkanah. The settlement of the estate of Henry Rickard dated
6 Dec. 1728 names eldest son Henry Rickard; son Elkanah Rickard;
grandson Elkanah Fuller only child of James Fuller and Judah Fuller
his wife who was dau. of the dec.; widow Marcy Rickard; dau. Bethiah
Chandler wife of John Chandler Jr. of Duxborough; and dau. Mercy
Weston the wife of Jonathan Weston of Duxborough. (Plymouth Co. PR
5:491-2).
This proves it was Henry's dau. Bethiah who married John Chandler.
Plymouth Co. LR 26:69, 70 proves that it was Henry's son Henry who
married Alice Oldham. Henry's son Elkanah signed his name on deeds,
while there is another Elkanah who signed deeds by a mark, he does not
seem to be the son of Samuel because, like Bethia and Henry, he did
not participate in the quitclaim.
