In the first instalment of this genealogy, which appeared in the Register of July 1934 (vol. 88, pages 215-231), an account? somewhat conjectural, became of the scanty and sometimes conflicting records and traditions on which it was based?was given (page 225, No. 14) of Eleazer4 Carver (Dea. Elcazer* John* Robert*) of Bridgewater and his children and grandchildren; and to John* Carver (No. 14, ix) of Bridgewater, who was born at Bridgewater 30 Nov. 1738, married there, 18 Oct. 1762, Bathsheba Edwin (who survived him), and died at Bridgewater 3 Aug. 1803, in his 65th year (Bridgewater Vital Records), were assigned twelve children, the order of whose births was uncertain, merely the names of several of them being known. Now, however,- through the courtesy of Mrs. William Raftord White (Elizabeth Qeveland Spear) of New York City, whose grandmother was a Carver, the compiler of this article is enabled to present the following information about three of these children of John* Carver, namely, John* Carver, Calvin* Carver, and Bethiah* Carver, and some of their descendants.
John* Carver (No. 14, ix, 4), of Bridgewater and Shutesbury, was born at Bridgewater 21 Nov. 1774 (Shutesbury vital records, unpublished). He married, 1 Feb. 1795 (Bridgewater Vital Records), Huldah Pratt.
