Sources: 1. Title: Descendants of Francis Le Baron of Plymouth, Mass.

Author: By Mary Le Baron Esty Stockwell

part of my confidence in the line from Marquerite DeWolf Theobald thu Caroline Dexter DeWolf to Francis LeBarron DeWolf it that Peggy Wiemers <Marquerite Theobald Lloyd> lived with grandparents John Eager Lloyd and Marquerite DeWolf Theobald from very early child hood until she married after high school. It is reasonable that her interest in family genelogy and knowledge of her ancestors came from that time with grandparents.

Peggy pointed out the DeWolf family tree in "Mount Hope" and knew her line of descent was thru #84 "Don Marcos" DeWolf and #25 Captain Jim DeWolf.

also note youngest child of Peggy and Bill Wiemers is Catherine DeWolf.
