    1. Re: [CTFAIRFI] Anna ST. JOHN
    2. According to Harvey Marvin Benedict, THE GENEALOGY OF THE BENEDICTS IN AMERICA, 1870, John Benedict, son of John and Phebe (Gregory) Benedict, " m. Mary (Haite?)" who d. June 5, 1749 ae. 72. No mention of marriage to Anna St. John. Donald Lines Jacobus, HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE FAMILIES OF OLD FAIRFIELD, Vol. 1, 1932, states: "John, b. 3 Mar. 1675/6, d. at Norwalk, 16 Jan. 1766 in 90 yr. (g. s.); Deacon; Sergt.; m. (1) before 1705, Anna St. John, dau. of Mark, b. 8 Aug. 1674; m. (2) Mary (???), who d. 5 June 1749 ae. 72 (g. s.)." [From listing of the children of John and Phebe (Gregory) Benedict] [From listing of the children of Mark St. John, son of Matthias Sension/St. John]: "Anna, b. 8 Aug. 1674; m. John Benedict" I have listed two children of John and Anna (St. John) Benedict -- John, b. 1701 and Matthew, b. Oct. 2, 1703; and four children of John and Mary (?Haite?) Benedict -- Caleb, b. 1709; Nathaniel, b. 1716; Hannah/Anna, m. Matthew Gregory; and Phebe, m. Ezra Hoyt. Hope this is of some help.

JOHN: Looking for accurate information on Anna St. John, Norwalk, (Fairfield Co.), CT., b. 1674, m. 1693 to John Benedict (1676-1766). Various family trees have incomplete and inconsistent information about the children and marriages of John Benedict, who appears to have been married twice, first to Anna St. John, and then to Mary Haite (1674-1749). What was the date of death of Anna St. John? (It appears to have been between 1693 and 1700.) What children were born to John Benedict and Anna St. John? >>
