Re Susan Barker possibly having married before -

ErikaH posted the Wood/Barker marriage.
The image of this other record of the marriage (below) says she was the daughter of Samuel and Rebecca (nee Parker).
As it doesn't give a surname for Samuel, I assume his name was Barker .
The transcriber has also assumed that: - and other records bear that out:

Susan Barker
in the Massachusetts, U.S., Compiled Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1700-1850
Name: Susan Barker
Maiden Name: Barker
Gender: Female
Marriage Date: 14 Dec 1820
Marriage Place: Nantucket, Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA
Father: Samuel Barker
Mother: Rebecca Barker
Spouse: Abraham Wood


Susan Barker
in the Massachusetts, U.S., Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988
Name: Susan Barker
Record Type: Birth
Birth Date: 1801 [ 22/11/1801 ]
Birth Place: Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA
Father: Samuel Barker
Mother: Rebecca Parker



Samuel and Rebecca had other children -

including Joseph 21/6/1795 (died 23/9/1818 ), and Judith (no DOB), both of whom are listed with other births on the image for this record:

Judith Barker
in the Massachusetts, U.S., Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988
Name: Judith Barker
Record Type: Birth
Birth Place: Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA
Father: Samuel Barker
Mother: Rebecca Parker

Judith died 29 August 1805:

Judith Barker
in the Massachusetts, U.S., Compiled Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1700-1850
Name: Judith Barker
Gender: Female
Death Date: 29 Aug 1805
Death Place: Nantucket, Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA
Father: Samuel Barker
Mother: Rebecca Barker

Another son listed on another page of that record, was Isaac, who was "shot by Spaniards, 1821, in S America".

He was born 1799:

Isaac Barker
in the Massachusetts, U.S., Compiled Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1700-1850
Name: Isaac Barker
Gender: Male
Birth Date: 7 Dec 1799
Birth Place: Nantucket, Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA
Father: Samuel Barker
Mother: Rebecca Barker [ nee Parker, per image ]


Other children were:
Charles Edward Barker - born 10 March [1818?], baptised 19 April 1818.
John Simpkins Barker, born 29 April [1810?], baptised 20/5/1810, died Sept 1931.
Nathaniel Whitwell Barker, born c1797, died 3/2/ 1800, aged 3 years 2 months..
Samuel, baptised 1/10/1815.
Eliza R, born 11/9/1807
Henry, baptised 16/5/1813.

Possible other children, but no mn given for Rebecca, so can't be 100% sure:

Fanna, died 20/8/1796, aged 2 months 17 days.
Richard Cary Barker, died 3/8/1806, aged 1 yr, 7 mths, 18 days.

Rebecca herself died 27/12/1847.

None of these are original records - they're on typed lists of births and deaths (on Ancestry).

Thank you for all that never thought of Familysearch!!

I think I'm following the right family it's just another tree has like you above marriage Susan Barker I'm wondering if she was married before and her name was Susan Mount which fits in with daughter Mary Mount Wood 1831, Apparently their was another Wood family Enock Wood who had Children .
This is why I wanted the Family history
I'll go through what you have given me
Thank you

Hi I'm having problems with my Wood family not sure if I have the right family? I have Abraham Wood born 22/7/1791 Harwood to John wood and Jane Jackson
I've got he Emigrated 15 Oct 1819 to Canada married a Susan Mount 1820 had 11 children up to Abraham b 1842.
I must admit I have possibly got info from another tree with documents marriage and death
On ancestry their are 2 things that I'd like to view but not having world wide??
one in 1861 census Canada and their is a document about North American family history 1500-2000 I think this document would help if I could get it
Hoping some one can help
