All this retun to genealogy interest was prompted by an idea I have to write an account in story form for my 10 yr. old granddaughter of our ancestor, Melatiah Bradford (later Churchill), who survived an Indian attack on her family at Friendship, ME in 1758.
It was part of the Massachusetts colony at that time.
Story is that on 22 May 1758, most of the families were holed up at the nearby garrison, but Melatiah's parents, Joshua and Hannah, were killed and scalped as was a baby brother, Winslow.
She hid under a bed with another small brother, Elisha, but he cried out and she ran to the fort carrying Elisha.
An Indian threw his tomahawk which hit her in the back severing two ribs.
She survived...of course!
Her older brothers were captured and taken to Canada but later escaped.
Melatiah, her twin, Mary, and another sister were sent to an aunt's in Plympton, MA. Melatiah moved to Vermont with her husband, Isaac Churchill, and 10 children in 1785. Their son, Winslow Churchill, is the grandfather of «b»Nettie Clarke. «/b»Stuff fiction is made of, huh?
But all true and makes a great story.
Will letyou know of my progress, if any, with this project...by Barbara Syme.
