I found a probate action in the courts of Acton, Middlesext County, Massachusetts ssachuses dated 1781 for Gaurdianship over Francis Emerson, he would have been about 11 years old at this time. I have not found mention of his brother yet. I am hunting down the court document to find out who may have raised him and a reason for the gaurdianship change. 4/1/2007
