| Children with Molly CLISBEE — born in Marlboro, Middlesex Co., MA: |
| 1. Jonas BRUCE, b. ca. 1791
2. Abner BRUCE, b. ca. 1793 3. Molly BRUCE, b. ca. 1795 4. Nancy BRUCE, b. ca. 1797 — more likely aft. 1800 The source for these names is entirely secondary, and the birthdates look like pure guesses. Based on the 1800 census, only three children were born by 1800 (two sons and one daughter), so either Nancy or Molly was born after the 1800 census. |
