Luther Bagley: a follow up on John Holroyd Bagley

Since the last time I wrote about the Bagleys from Rhode Island/Eastern Connecticut, I believe I have identified the parents of Luther Bagley. The first challenge with the family is getting used to the idea that the name Bagley/Bagly/Bayles/Bayley/Baily/Bailey are sometimes the same family. Luther and Sally were married on Aug. 9, 1804 in Providence. In the transcribe records of Rev. James Wilson, the names are Luther Bailey and Sally Baker.₁ In the Rhode Island Marriage indexes the names are Luther Bagley and Salley Baker._2,3 The newspapers consistently spelled the name "Bagley" when Luther died.₄ Luther Bagley is most likely the son of David Bagley and Dorothy Fox.  Luther Bagley was about 27 years old when he died in 1809. Making his birth year approximately 1782. Luther Bayley the son of David Bayley and Dorothy is born in Chatham, Connecticut in 1782.₅ David Bagley, son of Samuel Bagley, and grandson of Joseph Bagley "died in Connecticut".₆ Like Luther Bagley, the name Bagley was also reported as Bayley for David: David Bagley married Dorothy Fox₇ and David Bayley married Dorothy Fox.₈ David Bayley has a son Ambrose₉ and David Bagley has a son Ambrose.₁₀ I believe they are the same family. This would make John Holroyd Bagley a descendent of Samuel Bagley and not a descendant of Orlando Bagley as I expected.

Note: I started researching David Bagley's family in the hope that he had a son Richard who would be the father of Edward Bagely of New Brunswick. Even though David had six sons, none of them are named Richard.
