Who was Molly Medbury?
I'm researching my Fuller family. I have gotten as far back as my gggggrandfather, Timothy Fuller (b: Nov 21, 1751, m: May 12, 1791 to Molly Medbury.) And there's my dilemma: I can find no authoritative info on Molly. I have reason to believe she was named Mary, perhaps Mary Ann. I have seen hints that she was born in Rehoboth, MA or somewhere in Maine. I have 3 different dates of birth, from 1760(?) to Feb 17, 1755 and March 31, 1763. I have no clues whatsoever as to her death.
Here's what I do have with some certainty: Timothy and Molly were the parents of
Timothy, Jr.
Hannah
Polly (m William Adams)
Huldah
Can anyone help me? Please?

Yes, Michael, she is different. I've run across Molly K. many times, but she's not mine.
As mentioned above, mine was married in 1791 to my gggggrandfather, Timothy Fuller.

Thanks for the links, Michael, but any spouse other than Timothy Fuller eliminates these people. I am truly trying to focus on the one person/ couple.

Now we're talking, Michael!!!! Thank you very much!
As an added bonus, there are records included here for other of my ancestors as well! Huldah (Knapp), 145 3 345 is one of Timothy's sisters; Mehittabel (Peck) 145 3 291 another; Huldah (Reed) 146 4 188 a daughter; there may be more! This is a great find and I am very much obliged to you!
Have a great day!

I'd still like to find out something of her origins: parents, birth date, etc., if anyone has any leads in that direction.
I am guessing she was born between 1750 (based on Timothy's birth) and 1770 (IF she was 21 when married in 1791- long shots, I know, but that's all I have to go on. One possibility is that, while she is 'from Rehoboth per the above records, she may have been born elsewhere (RI is just across the water.). Another possibility is a previous marriage? I just have found nothing referring to her origins.
