We are TRYING to find out any information (genealogical, tax, or land records, even cemetery informtion) for George Purrinton or Purington's parents.

We *suspect* the parent MAYBE be related to Joseph Purrinton or Purington and Abigail (nee: Locke) of Chichester, Merrimack County, New Hampshire whose marriage intentions were record in Rye, Rockingham County, NH December 28th, of 1759. But nothing connects them to this particular NH couple (as yet).

Anyone out there KNOW of these people or can help us connect the genealogical dots. Were they Quakers?
