Notes
General:
110705;

I'm not sure if Elias is Jane's brother or cousin but she was a witness at his wedding and so I am listing him here for now.

250814:


Though I am not 100% certain that Elias Sooley is a brother of Jane (seems most likely since she witnessed his wedding), this begins to form an interesting pattern. The Sooley connection (Elias' bride Susannah Sooley) is also important, especially since her Christian name is Susannah, the same as that of Jane Chislett. I am now of the opinion, yet to be proved, that the mother of Jane Chislett (and Elias?) was also named Susannah Sooley. I had formerly had the Sooley name associated with the mother of Jacob Bishop, Hannah, whose surname I also cannot prove with evidence. But it now seems more likely that the connection was through the Chislett line so I am switching the "Sooley" surname from Hannah to Susannah today.

270615:
Eldred Chislett has Elias listed as a son of James's brother Samuel but I do not know on what basis he has made that determination so I am not prepared to move him now based on what may be a best guess on his part.

I have added Eliol as a child of William and Sarah Naomi following the lead of the Danford-MacKay Family tree on Ancestry though I have no idea how much confidence to place in their data. I will make contact to find out if this is solid.
