I have Ansel Andrus b. 1775 in Glastonbury, CT; d. 1850 and m. in Glastonbury in 1801 Catherine ATHERTON b. abt 1780 in Mass.; d. 1854. I have seen her listed as of Gill, MA or of Amherst, MA.

Good morning - I am looking for the identity of Lewis 1) JONES wife - Lewis JONES married Anna STONE Lewis JONES it is said was born 1603 in Wales he died 11 Apr 1684 at Watertown, Middlesex, Massachusetts- Lewis married 1636 ? TO: Anna STONE: it is said she was the d/o Simon STONE and his wife Joan CLARK - *IF* she was the d/o of said Simon and Joan [CLARK] STONE - then she was born 1624- according to Pope in his Pioneers of Massachusetts on pg 437 1st column - Anna was 11 years old when her family arrived in New England in 1635 - That would make her 12 years old at their marriage - could be, but I doubt it - I am wondering if ANNA STONE who married LEWIS JONES was maybe the sister of Simon STONE - OR was she the d/o WILLIAM STONE & ELIZABETH PAWSON? In the AMERICA'S FIRST FAMILIES it is said that Lewis JONES and his wife arrived in 1635 in Weston, Massachusetts, that he was a planter and along with his wife joined the Congregational Church in Roxbury, Suffolk, Massachusetts abt 1640- as recorded by the pastor, Rev John ELIOTT missionary to the Indians. SO my question is - how could she arrive at age 11 with her parents [deacon] SIMON STONE and his wife JOAN CLARK in 1635 - AND also arrive with her husband in 1635? I have LEWIS JONES death as 11 Apr 1685 in Watertown, Middlesex, Massachusetts I have his wife Anna [STONE] JONES death as 1 May 1680 also in Watertown, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Thank you for taking the time to read this - Wilma Fleming Haynes [email protected]

Hi Peggy, you are one of several people who suggested Colebrook CT as the 'Coalbrook' I'm looking for. So far, it seems to be the only reasonable option. Your other information I thought was really interesting, about the two nearby places between in two different states, and the lack of definition between CT and MA in this particular area. Thanks for your answer!
