Notes
a. Continued:   From Find-A-Grave; author Rich M.??
  When Mary "Polly" Camber was born on May 18, 1793, in Strafford, Vermont, her father, John Henry Camber, was 29, and her mother, Heborah "Tatodatee" Theodata, was 29. <i>Polly had one son already when she married Samuel Brown in about 1814</i>, and they had ten children together. She was widowed in about 1847, and in the deed of sale for the Lakeshore Settlement of Samuel Brown, the buyer, Amos Brown, agreed in a covenant to care for her for life. As a result, when Amos subsequently sold the farm, <u><i>he apparently provided a mortgage to Benjamin Place to buy the Jay, Vermont, farm where Polly was to live with Benjamin for the rest of her life.</i></u> She died on November 13, 1878, in Jay, Vermont, having lived a long life of 85 years, and may have been buried there, in the plot next to Benjamin Place, Jay Center Cemetery, Section B, Number 136. That plot is unmarked, but it's between Phebe Judd, Benjamin Place's wife, in number 137, and Marie Bérard, Guy Place's wife, in 135. She also could have been buried in a lost cemetery rumored to exist at Magoon Point.
b. Continued:   Marriage date given as before 1809 based on the birth year of Benjamin. Marlene Domstead indicated Polly Camber was likely the wife -- perhaps a common law wife of Stephen. After much discussion on the Place Rootsweb list, people concluded that Polly Camber was likely not the mother of the children in this list. Later I heard from Tony Elbridge who lives in the Brome County area and is convinced from land records and a Brown Co. history from Jay, Vermont that Stephen's first wife was indeed Polly Camber. She apparently is the mother of Benjamin, Stephen and Sarah (Sally). Second wife Betsey is apparently the mother of the others. The 3rd wife was said to be Hannah Magoon, but John Folsom concluded she was actually the wife of the next generation Stephen Place.
