Thank-you Lee B.!
The book by Peter DeGuerre "A Brief History of Jacob Belfry,Sen." is a great Belfry reference for this fascinating family.Also for those interested another great reference is the book by Mary Lovering Holman "Descendents of William Sherman of Marshfield, Massachusetts" published in 1936.This reference follows the Sherman ancestry back to the original Sherman ancestors in colonial America and answers some of the questions first raised in DeGuerre's book.Great for those intersested in tracing their roots from Jacob Belfry's wife Joanna Sherman,another facinating read with neat info on an old, old group of families.Also includes some speculation concerning the Belfry ancestry.
