Miss Sever and Rufus Wright Kendall filed marriage intentions July 9, 1826 in Templeton, MA and July 16th in Gardner, MA. They may not have actually married. No official marriage date has been found just marriage intentions.
Three years later in Phillipston, MA intentions of marriage are recorded with Lydia and Moses Bancroft on January 11, 1829. They were wed on January 28, 1829 at Gardner, MA. In both those records Lydia is referred to as Lydia Sever not Lydia Kendall which is causing the confusion as to whether she married Rufus W. Kendall and later divorced or that they never married.
