  • Notes: 

  • Rebecca Harlow has often been incorrectly claimed to be Rebecca Rickard, daughter of John and Hester (Barnes) Rickard. Florence Harlow Barclay, in her article "Rebecca, wife of Reverend Isaac Cushman," (see TAG 26 (1950): 144-147), showed that Isaac Cushman married Rebecca Harlow and that she was his only wife.
