Hello,
I'd like to mention that I'm still interested in finding out more about Robert BANCROFT. I had to be away from genealogy for a year, so I'm getting back to some of my "brick walls."
One question this morning is that I found a web page mentioning the BANCROFT and BANCRAFT men who fought in the Revolutionary War from what was then Stoughton, MA. There were 6 of them. If Robert was born around 1720, he would have been in his 50's during the War. Oh, just remembered he would have been living in Middleton, MA, in the 1770's - where his children were raised.
