HelpRe: Eye-catchers from an 1871 Publication, Last Batch (23 names)
in reply to a message by Tiggs
Wow - I'd never thought of Wealthy as a name, still less as a unisex name, and least of all as combining so amazingly with Jane! Though, I admit, William Lycurgus takes some beating.
I'm going to miss your ancestral names. Please, if you ever find any others, do go on sharing.

As I just replied to Pie, I think the combo Wealthy Jane totally works and I wouldn't name anyone Wealthy. It just goes to show how wonderfully versatile Jane is...the little black dress of names.
Thanks so much for your encouragement and I'm glad you enjoyed these names. I did, some years ago, come upon a similar publication for a "probable" ancestor on another line; I believe he was also an early settler in Massachusetts, so the names could be very similar. On that particular line, I'm not certain that the direct ancestors I know about directly connect to the immigrant ancestor & descendants featured in that publication, but other researchers think they do; I just haven't worked on that line myslef or seen any documentation. They're "probably mine". Wonder if I can find that again.
