Martha's parents were Daniel and Hannah Cornwall Doolittle. Gedcom files uploaded to RootsWeb by several cousins helped me document Martha's ancestors, complete with sources and references. The following links will get you the Doolittle Gedcom files by Cathy B., Dutch M., and Jerry F.
Notes:
William Cornwall's wife was Mary Bull, born 09 MARCH 1608/1609, in Middletown, Middlesex, England.
Abraham Doolittle was quite the staunch Puritan, as were most of my ancestors from that area during that time period. I'm planning a page about my many ancestors from Connecticut, their religion, and anything else I can dig up about them. Maybe siblings of my Connecticut ancestors from different branches of my tree knew each other, or married, as did the Stickneys and Kingsburys in Massachusetts. see my connections page for that info.
