Lydia ALLEN

This report includes only the first 6 generations of the Deacon Edmund RICE clan. A nine-generation version is available to members of the Edmund Rice (1638) Association. Learn more about Deacon Edmund RICE and these pages at our home page.

Lydia ALLEN [QQ4325] (Benjamin⁴, Frances³ RICE, Thomas², Edmund¹) , born 29 Mar 1735, (1734 per Rice Gen'l Register) at Weston (Lincoln), MA^{133,2 {p29}}, daughter of Benjamin ALLEN and Eunice GALE. The Wheeler genealogy incorrectly asserts that Lydia married Daniel Billings as her second husband. It was actually Lydia's daughter who married Daniel (q.v.).

She married John WHEELER 31 Oct 1754 at Lincoln, MA, listed as John of Lincoln^{133,2 {p29}}. He was born 5 Sep 1733 at Concord, MA^{35 {p135},444 {p147}}, died 20 Jul 1765 at Lincoln, MA^{133,444 {p925}}, son of Thomas WHEELER and Mary MUNROE.

Children of Lydia ALLEN and John WHEELER:

i: Lucy WHEELER [QQ32831], born 27 Jul 1755 at Lincoln^{133,444 {p925}}.
ii: Silence WHEELER [QQ32830], born 1 Mar 1757 at Lincoln^{133,444 {p925}}.
iii: Lydia WHEELER [QQ32866], born 8 Feb 1759 at Lincoln^{133,444 {p925}}.

She married Daniel BILLINGS 11 Jan 1779 at Lincoln, but the month is torn in the original church records. January is inferred as the expected month of marriage, given the recorded date of filing the intention. Note that the Wheeler genealogy ascribes this marriage incorrectly to Lydia's mother^{133,444 {p925}}. He was born 25 Dec 1753 at Concord, MA^{35 {p188}}, died 28 Feb 1805 at Mason, NH¹²⁶, son of Daniel BILLINGS and Elizabeth FARRAR. Relocated before 1792 to Mason, from Lincoln, MA, and appeared then on the tax rolls of Mason. Probate records in Nashua, NH, show that Lydia Billings survived her husband, Daniel, a cooper of Mason, NH. She was living in Temple, NH, on 7 Oct 1805. Daniel had had a long sickness before his death, and Lydia was poverty stricken and requested help from the town.^{20 {#0512}} The published vital records of Clinton, Maine, show the same children with nearly the same birth dates shown here. However, the town of Clinton did not even exist at the time most of these children were born. The book attributes its information to the Billings Bible (Mary) in the possession of Miss Georgia E. Billings of Clinton, ME. Your authors have not determined when that Bible was printed, but believe it to be a secondary source. In particular, it has Daniel's wives mixed up (the names are clearly established by the vital records of both Lincoln and Concord).
