Be careful with marriages between Brittons and Leonards. This one married William Britton. Their son Ebenezer Britton married Tabitha, son of Seth Leonard and Dorcas White. There was also a David Britton, who married Lydia, daughter of Philip Leonard and Lydia Chase. Uriah Leonard and Elizabeth Farley's daughter, Lydia, also married a David Britton.
Referred to as Lydia Alden Britton in one genealogy... James Savage has Lydia b. 10 Mar 1679 and Abigail b. 30 Jan 1683. Lydia Leonard had person sources.
