Research into Amos Avery and Sarah Burrow

My pedigree for the Amos Avery family is Richard Price => Eleanor Rachael Avery => Arthur David Avery => Aaron B. Avery => Amos Avery.


Some family trees on ancestry.com indicate that Amos Avery may be the same person as Amos Walker Avery son of Abraham Avery and Mercy Packer. However, according to the well documented book “The Groton Avery Clan” this is not true. Amos Walker Avery married Nancy McCutcheon, not Sarah Burrow.


Other family trees believe that Amos Avery is the son of John Avery and Abigail Knapp. This is plausible. Kathy Avery, a descendent of David Avery, brother of Aaron has sent me some documentation establishing this relationship as a very strong possibility.
