Research Notes:
John & Betsy are placed in this family on the evidence of Reuben Alston being in his residence in the 1841 Census
His birth date calculated from census does not fit his parents marriage or his family?
That this John was buried 12 Feb 1869 is completely conjectural and only based on the age at death given in the Stanstead Register of 69 years
