Notes: Jennie’s mother, Flora POTTS, was the 3rd great granddaughter of Jonas POTTS and Mary HECKATHORN. Jennie’s husband, Mordecai GRIFFITH was the son of Joseph GRIFFITH and Emma MOORE. Emma was the sister of William MOORE. Joseph’s sister, Rosannah married Matthew MYERS. His sister, Matilda, married Christian HACKATHORN. His sister, Martha “Jane”, married Aaron Jonas MYERS. I haven’t figured out all of the BEADNELL connections yet. (But there are many.)
