Notes:
o   Elizabeth Lyford: The claim that she was married to James [2], s/o James [1] is specifically contradicted in source #6; page 191, 1428. Source #7 is severely unreliable in multiple cases besides Elizabeth.
o   Child 4: Spouse (Jonathan Folsom) (1e) conflicts with (3) pg. 220; #1431, which claims Jonathan was married to Mary Gilman (d/o James, Moses, Edward).
o   There were multiple persons named James Gilman in this area. (Check indexes)
o   Census record is unclear as to which Zebulon this applies to, but the presence of other family members looks good.

Lineage: James < James < Moses < Edward < Robert < Edward (5th).
