Whitney, You did not give any ages for your George Rich. I searched a 1910 Census Index for him and found many, many Georges. I could do the same with the 1900 CT Soundex (Index) too if you wish. 1900 is a more complete index and will list family members. Here are some in Middlesex County in 1910.

I am searching for the parents of Hiram White who were from Connecticut. Hiram was born in Chenango county,NY 1 June 1814. Thanks, Nan

I am researching a Swedish immigrant family that arrived in the USA in 1872. The father was Carl Johan (Charles) Samuelson b. 9/2/1827, Risinge.... wife Maja Greta (Margareta) b. 8/29/1843 Children: Johan Alfred b. 1863 Ida Amanda b. 1866 Anna Mathilda b. 1869 Axel Emil b. 1871 Anders Edward b. 1872 Frans Oskar b. 1875 Wilhelm Conrad b. 1879 Viktor Hjalmer b. 1880 Mria Vilhelmina b. 1883 I would appreciate hearing from anyone that knows of, or may be related to this family? Sharon in Mn.

Hi All, I'm doing this again since I see the list is active right now. If you have ancestors that may be in Colonial CT, they can be found at the Colonial Connecticut Records Site: http://www.colonialct.uconn.edu/ P.S. For some, it is hard to get into the site. I try to go into it with a lower browzer with the ads off rather than on. Ellen Baker Washington State

Does anyone know the enumeration district number for this address in New Britain.....115 Dwight Street? Thank you. Sharon in Mn.

In the book, Bogue genealogy, Descendants of John Bogue of East Haddam, Conn and Wife Rebecca Walkley by Flora Bogue Deming, c.1944, Page 1: John Booge (Bogue) married 11 Aug 1692 Rebecca Walkley. Richard (referring to Walkley) came to Saybrook about 1644. Their residence was East Haddam, Conn. John Bogue served several terms in the Legislature. Rebecca Walkley taught the first school in East Haddam. Page 2: "Rebecca Walkley, dau. of Richard and Rebecca Walkley, was born in East Haddam, Conn., Aug 12, 1672, and died in East Haddam, Mar. 25, 1733 from Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1657, though Richard was born in Gloucester, Eng. He bought of Samuel Butler of Weathersfield, his home lot and home in Haddam which is on the southeastern slope of what is now Walkley Hill and is still in possession of his descendants. Richard and Rebecca had three children: Richard, Rebecca, and another son who probably died young. The above was copied from the Walkley Genealogy and sent to virgit t. Bogue by Mrs. Grace Walkley Williamson of Forestville, Conn. In the Boston Public Library is a volume, Tragedy of Othello, written by William Shakespeare, London, printed for Thomas Walkley to be sold at his shop at the Eagle and Child in Brittans Bursse, 1662." There are several other paragraphs in the Introduction about Richard and Rebecca stating "date and last name not known". Mrs. Deming also sites as sources the Walkley Genealogy and Colonial Records and Newberry Library in Chicago, Book on American Ancestry. "He first appears in the Colonial Records of Hartford, Conn., May 21, 1657." Regards, Janece Carter Streig

I've been researching my Swedish line of ancestors. The surname is Samuelson. According to the Swenson Research Center, which has Swedish archival documents, there was a Samuelson family that resided in Bridgeport. Margareta Samuelsson died in June, 1894. Her husband, Carl, passed away Sept. 14, 1906. They resided at 115 Dwight Street. Does that address exist today? Are there Samuelsons in that part of Ct? Their children were: Johan Alfred, b. 1863 Ida Amanda. b. 1866 Maria b. 1883 Anna Matilda born 1869 Axel born 1871 Anders born 1872 Frans Oskar born 1875 Wilhelm Conrad born 1879 Victor Hjalmer born 1880 I'm hoping to connect with descendants of these family members. Thank you Sharon in Mn.

Yep. Names with -thorp(e)[one syllable, both spellings], -thwait(e)[ditto],and -by are all from the Danish invaders of the late 800s, who settled in the north. Many of those names DID and DO have a syllable or two before -thorp(e) and -thwait(e). E.g., Althorp, Goldthwaite.

Origin of placenames in Northern England. If an ancestor has -by or -thorp(e) in his name, he's from N. England. http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/north_east_england_history_page/PLACES1.htm Enjoy, Warren Thanks to Jan for the URL
