From "History of Bradford County, Pennsylvania with Biographical Sketches" by H. C. Bradsby, 1891, Chapter XLIX, "Towanda Township"
Benjamin Bosworth, a Revolutionary father, and a hatter by trade, came from Boston and improved the Willis Fisher place. His neighbor was Williston West, who settled on the Harry Decker place in 1812. West's second wife was Susan Bosworth, daughter of Benjamin Bosworth.

From "Pioneer & Patriot Families of Bradford County PA 1800-1825, Clement F. Heverly.
Williston West came to the Harry Decker place in Towanda township before 1812 and cleared a considerable part of the farm. He died in 1819 at an advanced age and was buried at Cole's. His second wife was Susannah, daughter of Benjamin Bosworth by whom he had children: Williston, Andrew, Harrison, Lorenzo and Amy. [and also, apparently a son named Benjamin, although some have concluded that he was Benjamin Harrison - doubtful] His widow afterwards married John Haithorn. Williston married Polly Avery. Andrew and Amy went West with the Mormons.

Some databases online have an Alonzo Lorenzo West said to have married a Polly Avery, born about 1823 in Pennsylvania. Some have confused her with the Polly Avery, daughter of Daniel & Sarah Sargent Avery, who married Williston West.
