      Hello Sherry,

      Just read your emails and replies. Very interesting. I have added some Breckenridge data to my Doak database.

      FYI in case you did not know - Ann Doak was the daughter of Robert Doak of Londonderry, N.H.. Robert and his large family arrived at Boston aboard the ship "Elizabeth" and Ann was one of the children. Ann left Londonderry with her mother and siblings in 1725 and went to Donegal, Pa in Chester County where she probably met George Breckenridge. I have them marrying in 1742 and I do not have a death date for Ann other than what you have already been told.

      I am always interested in Doak info so shoot it my way if you run across anything on the early Doak's.

      Best Regards,

      John Doak
