PECKHAM FAMILY of NEWPORT and WESTERLY, R
GENFA.LOGY of ONE BRANCH OF THE PECKHAM FAMILY of NEWPORT AND WESTERLY, R. I. and its ALLIED FAMILIES Compiled in Affectionate Memory of :Emma Frances 7 (Peckham) Bentley by Her Sons William Perry and John Earle Bentley Documentary Evidence by :Emilie Sa.rter, Genealogist Boston, Mass. FOREWORD Genealogies are commonly written for sentimen tal reasons, and if sentiment were to prevail the name of' this booklet would be "Mother's Ancestors". As a practical matter, however, the title of a gene alogy should give some clue to its contents, there fore, I have decided that the title should be Genealogy of One Branch of' the Peckham Family of Newport and Westerly, R. I. and its Allied Families In the early part of the yea:r 1949 I happened to be looking through a Bible which had belonged to my mother, Emma Frances7 {Peckham) Bentley, and there found a :faded piece of writing paper upon which she had written "Mother 's Ancestors John A. Saunders Catherine Maxson John Maxson Sarah Sbrieve Daniel Shrieve Mary Green" She referred, of course, to the ancestors of' her own mother, my grandmother, Mary Ann6 (Saunders) (Saun ders) Peckham. This little memorandum made by my mother, no doubt for my brother, Fred Harold8 Bent ley, who worked out our Bentley lineage, was often on my mind. During the month of August, 1949, my wife and I spent our vacation at Shelter Harbor, a summer re- · sort on the Rhode Island shore, in the town of West erly, which was the home of' many of' my ancestors. -
