Note:
per Hosier's book on Kingston: David married three times. By his first wife Mary (last name ) he had Jonathan 1744, Jonathan 1748 and Judith 1750 all born in Kingston. Benjamin bpt 1753 in Kingston. By his second wife Jemima Colby he had Benjamin b. 1756, Rowell Colby 1762 and Mary 1768. By his third wife Mary (last name ) he had Judith 1776 and Sarah 1779, both girls born in Sanborn.
Another book on VR of Sandown only give him two wives: Jemima with children as follows: Benjamin 1756, Rowell Colby 1762, Mary 1765 and Rhoda 1768; then Mary (last name ) with Judah 1776 and Sarah 1779. It is possible that all the children by his first wife died as he names a second Jonathan and a second Benjamin and a second Judith (Judah)..; genealogy of EST of 1897. Other sources iclude History of Bristol; DAR records and Kingston church records.
A petition signed 24 Sept 1746 set off Sandown from kingston and it is signed by John, William and David Straw who would be sons of John and Lydia Straw.
Other facts for David Straw include 1756: David was a fence viewer or one who decided land disputes.
