    3. Transcribed From Appendix (pgs 168-175) of the Book: HISTORY OF SIMSBURY, GRANBY, AND CANTON FROM 1642 TO 1645 By: Noah A. Phelps Hartford PRESS OF CASE, TIFFINY AND BURNHAM, 1845 Pearl Street, corner of Trumbull ___________ REGISTER of Marriages, Births, and Deaths, in the families of the first settlers of Simsbury. This Register is compiled chiefly from an old manuscript book, in the possession of JAMES LOOMIS, sq. of Windsor, "made out May 18, 1674," from an older book stated to be full; to which additions were made during a few years, after 1674. These books unquestionably contain the records kept of these events, by several clergymen who officiated at Windsor, during their occurrence. The one, from which these extracts are made, is in a mutilated condition, and in many places illegible. It does not of course contain the births of children born before their parents removed to Windsor, nor generally, after they settled in Simsbury. In compiling this Register, a considerable amount of matter, in addition to the above, has been derived from the state records, and from the town records of Windsor and Simsbury. It is not claimed that this account is perfect, or that it can be made so. But the design has been to include in it all that has been discovered relating to the subject as connected with the early inhabitants of Simsbury. Where names or dates are missing, they were so in the originals from which copies were made. ________________________________________________________ PART 2 BEGINS.
