Their known children:
1. Phebe, b. 1790, d. 1881, m. William Coffin, Jr.
2. Lydia, b. 1793, d. 1830, m.1. Arnold Shaw, m.2. Captain Gamaliel Hart.
3. Susan T., b. 1795, d. 1870
4. Benjamin T., b. 1797, d. 1851, m. Deborah Bryant Hart
5. Joseph, b. 1799, d. 1857, m. Mercy T. Buffum
6. James Bunker, b. 1802, d. 1880, m. Lucy Randall
7. John Howard, b. 1806, d. 1834
8. Mary Taber, b. 1809, d. 1890, m. Joseph Allen
9. Arnold Shaw, b. 1812, d, 1844, m. Catharine Macomber
Note: Vital Records of New Bedford, Massachusetts to the Year 1850, Vol. I - Births, published by N.E.H.G.S. in 1932 is the only VR source for a child named "Amela Shaw" born in 1812 and that record contains a bracketed listing for Arnold Shaw, born on the same date, taken from church records (CR3) and the additional notation on "Arnold S." for that date, taken from grave records (GR1). Many family trees online list Amela Shaw Congdon in the list of children but no one has any other VR documentation.
The usual parental link to Caleb's father, Joseph Congdon, was declined because it was a "burial unknown" and so were all other family members created by the same user. Once the memorial is moved to a cemetery, I will make the standard link.
