1. Betsey Sibley, born 1 Jan 1781, Sutton, Worcester Co, MA

Notes:

Paul was the son of Ensign Jonathan and Hannah Sibley per birth record.

His estate was administered by one of his elder sons, Caleb Sibley. The letters of administration are dated 1 March 1803. The inventory was filed 15 March 1803. His estate was split amongst his heirs, the details of which are documented in a two page letter to the judge of probate. The letter is dated 30 March 1803, and identifies all the heirs of Paul Sibley, including his widow Sarah, and his heirs - Paul Sibley, Caleb Sibley, Jonathan Sibley, Stephen Marsh and Tamar Marsh [his wife], Tylor Marsh and Salley Marsh [his wife], Willard Converse in behalf of his wife Betsey, Polly Sibley, James Sprague guardian for Ruth Sibley, Rufus Sibley, and Simeon Sibley.¹

Research Notes:

His gravestone in the Old Spencer Cemetery is engraved with an incorrect date: 23 Feb 1804. The probate records show that the 1804 date cannot be correct. The death date for Paul Sibley in the Spencer VRs, 28 Feb 1803, is more likely the correct date.
