Mary Dibble's surname was the source for her son Daniel's middle name. Mary and husband Theophilus Merriman Fenn were married 11 December 1793, in Mt. Washington, MA. They moved to Genesse County, New York, before 1810, and appear on page 133 of the 1810 census, along with the elusive Levi W. Gardner and Rueben Stickney who were on page 132. Also in the same census was Michael Beach, a maternal ancestor.
Theophilus M. and Mary Dibble Fenn were the parents of 11 children:
