Gedmatch Cousin : Distant Match but no shared DNA

Cousin Dave reached out to me after seeing a match with the GEDCOM file I had posted at GEDmatch.com.  Though we are not closely related, and shared no DNA, I found it interesting to make another connection.

Dave and I are 9th cousins once removed on the Jewett and Parratt lines. Ezekiel Jewett (1643-1723) and Faith Parrat are my paternal 9th great-grandparents and Dave's 8th great-grandparents.  My line is as follows:


Ezekiel Jewett (1643-1723) and Faith Parrat

Francis Jewett (1665-1751) and Sarah Hardy (1673-????)

Samuel Jewett (1694-????) and Ruth Hardy (1699-1737)

Samuel Jewett (1725-1791) and Sarah ________

Sally Jewett (1749-????) and John Philbrick (1748-1840)
Joel Philbrick (1781-1846) and Sally Fox (1788-1868)

Emeline Philbrick (1817-1881) and Albert Moulton (1819-1864)

Cora Belle Metzner (1868-1955) and Eli Weldon Haley (1866-1957)
(my paternal great-grandparents)

Dave and I also connect as 9th cousins twice removed. on the Spofford and Burpbee lines.  Samuel Spofford (1653-1744) and Sarah Burpbee (1660-1729) are my maternal 9th great-grandparents and Sarah is the child of Dave's 8th great-grandparents. My line is as follows:


Samuel Spofford (1653-1744) and Sarah Burpbee
Thomas Spofford (1678-????) and Bethiah Hazeltine (1682-????)
 Elizabeth Spofford (1715-1772) and Bennett Field (1709-1770)

Bethiah Field (1746-1807) and Seth Pierce (1744-1835)

Gordon Pierce (1773-1875) and Thirsa Smalley (1775-1861)

(my maternal great-grandparents)
Both sets of these families were early settlers of Rowley, Essex County, Massachusetts.

Birth of Elizabeth Price (1683-1716) Northampton, Massachusetts

Several months ago, cousin Yvonne Demoskoff of Yvonne's Genealogy Blog responded to one of my "cousin bait" posts describing the events in my family history that occurred on August 12th.  Yvonne quickly responded that we shared a common ancestor, as Elizabeth Price (1683-1716) was her 8x-great grandmother.  Elizabeth was my 8x-great grandaunt, the daughter of Sarah Webb (1646-1704) and Robert Price.  I descend from Sarah Webb (1646-1704) and her first husband, Zechariah Field (1645-1674), through son John Field (1673-1718).

Yvonne's ancestor, Elizabeth Price (1683-1716) was taken captive during the raid on Deerfield, Massachusetts on February 29, 1704.  She was one of 109 captives.  Her mother, Sarah (Webb) Price (my ancestor) was killed during the raid.  According to Yvonne, Elizabeth was taken to New France where she later married in 1706 at Montreal to Jean Fourneau dit Brindamour.

After contacting me, Yvonne asked if I had any sources for the birth date for Elizabeth, which I showed in my database as occurring in Northampton, Hampshire County, Massachusetts on August 12, 1683.  Unfortunately, I did not have sources for this information.  Much of the information I had obtained came from an excellent textbook "Captors and Captives: The 1704 French and Indian Raid on Deerfield" by Kevin Sweeney.   I found the book on Amazon.com and found it a fascinating read.

Sorting through my unfinished email business, I decided today to renew my search for records of Elizabeth's birth and I found her!  At Familysearch.org, I was able to access the vital records of the Town of Northampton, Massachusetts and browse them year by year, looking for Elizabeth.  Though hard to read, below is the image I located.

A link to the exact location of the record can be found here.  I am excited to find this record and add a source to my database, and look forward to searching the rest of these vital records to locate information on the rest of the family.
