The Daniels Family of Strafford County, New Hampshire

In the 1790 U.S. census there are several Daniels in and around Barrington:

Clement of Barrington

David of Madbury

Dodavah of Barrington

Eliphalet of Durham

Joseph of Barrington

Joseph, Jr. of Barrington

Pelatiah of Barrington

These seven men are all from the same family.  I have encountered this family before when researching my Pinkham article.  Several Daniels females marry Pinkham males.  I tried at that time to piece this Daniels family together but alas, no one has done any work on them.  The History of Durham doesn't include them in volume two.  The Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire gives the beginning of the family in the 17th century and shows them all are descendants of Joseph of Durham. 

In any case, I don't believe that Polly went from Strafford County to Cheshire County to marry, so this family is hardly likely.

In addition: Hannah Daniels m. ca. 1760 Samuel Pinkham

Richard Pinkham m. 24 June 1793 in Madbury, Susan Daniels

Abigail Pinkham m. ca. 1785 Samuel Daniels

Martha Pinkham m. June 1789 in Madbury, Reuben Daniels

I have been researching Abigail Pinkham Daniels for a couple of years and frustrated at the amount of erroneous information out there. Especially that Abigail was born in Nantucket, If people would look at the Nantucket Death records; they would find that Abigail died at about the age of 2 years. Plus how would Samuel and Abigail meet when the distance between Lee/Dover NH is quite a distance from Nantucket,, even with freeways. I am a descendent of Abigail and Samuel Daniels via their son Leonard and his wife Ruth, Esther Daniels and James Babcock. Through this couple I am descended from their 6th great grandfather, Rev. Joseph Hull, through both of his wives. I have spent hours gong through the book: Richard Pinkham of Old Dover without success in finding the correct Abigail Pinkham. I am from California, currently visiting sister in NC but in a couple of weeks will be touring New England, I did this last year but because of Covid shutdowns found it difficult to do the research I wanted to do.(my daughter is a doctor and was working at Boston Children's and was staying with her; so I had to comply. This year I am vaccinated and she is now at Philadelphia Children's and I will be visiting her after I have been everywhere else. So yes, I am one of the people that is researching the Daniel line. I even discovered a cousin on the other side of my family is actually a half cousin; my grandmother was raped by her brother in law and his name was Jacob Daniels. We are actually 8th cousins on that line going back to Naomi Hull who married Davy Daniels and their sons. My email address Is:
