Cary and Gail and Listers, Here's the problem. This book is under copyright. I can share information from books and CD's with one or two people, but I surely can't post extensive excerpts to a public list, such as this maillist. What I can do is prepare a file to send you individually. That isn't going to violate copyright. If you'll be patient (what! Genealogists being patient? LOL), I'll get at that project later today. Anyone else connect to this James Ensign?

Gail, We hit the Jackpot with your James Ensign. He emigrated in 1634 to Cambridge and removed to Hartford. He is in Volume II and there are five and a half pages about him.

Zelotes CLARK was b. 4 Jun 1747 in Haddam. He m. Elizabeth HARRIS in Killingworth on 1 Sep 1778; Elizabeth b. 1758, pr. in Chester. Zelotes was a Revolutionary War veteran, Connecticut Continental Line, and listed in the DAR and SAR archives. He later removed to Summit county, Ohio, died in 1834, and is buried in Locust Grove Cemetery, Twinsburg, OH. Ancestry of Zelotes is my biggest brick wall. Anyone have anything that can steer me to the parents of Zelotes Clark? Ray Downing Las Vegas, NV

Hello Has anyone ever heard of a first wife, Sybil Sands, for Jonathan Rogers, b. April 13, 1687. Jonathan m. Alice (Ales) Champion in December, 1718 in Lyme, CT. Sybil was b. abt. 1687, m. abt. 1704, d. abt. 1718, was the d/o Capt. James Sands of RI, a descendant of Sir Edwin Sandys, Archbishop of York I had never heard this before and it is not in the Roger's book. If anyone has Lyme Barbour records or info. on this, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks Tracy

Lee, can I possibly ask you to look up James Ensign? His wife was Sarah Elson. I don't know the year of immigration, but he was a freeman in 1636. Thanks very much. Gail

I just found the Durham marriages that I transcribed a couple years ago hiding in an Excel file, so I did a quick & dirty table coding on them and got them on line. These are from the History of Durham by Wm. C. Fowler, 1866. It was thanks to Ray Brown that I had copies of the vital records in the book. Will have to dig around in the Excel directory and see if I missed anything else. In the meantime, I'm transcribing a number of deeds from the early 1800s for the ARNOLD family that Don Smith was kind enough to send for inclusion on the site. There are about 30 of them, so this will take a while. Jane

There are also Durham records including births & deaths on the site transcribed from the History of Durham, CT; Wm. C. Fowler, 1866.

Robert, Vol 9 is the Durham Barbour town vital records and everything in there has been transcribed. Too bad there isn't another; that one was all baptismal records and a real bear. Coralynn

William might be mentioned under connections as he and Nicholas were co-defendants in a law suit by Math[ew] ALLEN recorded in the Records of the Particular Court of Connecticut, on 4 Sep 1643. I'm looking through the Cambridge Town Records right now and while William is listed in the index, he's not on the page indicated there. Thanks for looking. Jane

I have the first two volumes of TGM Continues and the quality of investigation is as precise as the TGMB. One nice feature of the new volumes is, each book has an Index. I find that is a great improvement over the first series. Robert Anderson and his crew are so precise in their research, so it's difficult for me not to be impatient. Most of my people came in the 1630-1635 period, so I am anxiously awaiting each volume.

Hi, Jan, >Any mention of William CLARK who wound up in Haddam?????? There is a William Clark in the 1st vol of GMB 1620-1633: Robert Charles Anderson, The Great Migration Begins, Immigrants to New England 1620-1633, Vol. I (Boston: NEHGS, 1995), pp. 380-383. Now to see if he is yours.... Hmmmmm it appears there's much confusing on the William CLARKS of Salem and Watertown/Ipswich and the John CLARK of brielfly Boston and then of RI. This Wm. Clark was the one of Ipswich and at this time sees no relation to the others. This one migrated in 1630, first residing in Watertown, and removing to Ipswich in 1633. He was b. no later than 1610. md. Elizabeth -?-, and at this time no recorded children. He made several return trips to London and died there aft. 1640. As there is no mention of CT and no known children then this is not yours. No mention of a Nicholas CLARK. --- Susan [email protected] My Genealogy Website - sgt http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/ ----------------------------------------------- USGW Mansfield, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/mansfield.html USGW New London, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/newlondon.html USGW Norwich, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/norwich.html USGW Windham, CT - http://home.att.net/~SGTAYLOR1/windham.html USGW Coordinator Plymouth Co., MA - http://www.rootsweb.com/~maplymou/ USGW Plymouth, MA - http://www.rootsweb.com/~macplymo/ ********************************************************* He may >have been the William who is listed in Cambridge along with Nicholas >CLARK in 1634.

Jane, I've checked both volumes and neither gives a William Clark as an early immigrant, and no mention of a William Clark in Haddam.

There was an article published in the Middletown Press last fall in the 75 Years ago column. Oct. 8, 1926: Middletown - It was reported today that the Lincoln Drug Co. store at 288 Main street had been sold to the Liggett's drug syndicate, one of the large drug combinations in the country. An effort was made to see Howard N. Lincoln of the Lincoln Drug Co., but it was said he was out of town. It is understood that he was in New York in relation to the coming transfer of the local company. The Lincoln store has been one of the best known drug stores in the city. It was long located at the corner of Court and Main streets. When that property passed into the hands of the Middletown Savings bank the drug company began to look around for a new location. Note: Howard N. Lincoln was my grandfather. I'm not sure if he had another drug store in Middletown or not. But I do know that in the 1930's he had a drug store in Simsbury, Ct. He died in Simsbury, 18 Jan. 1939. He is buried in the East Cemetery in Cromwell, Ct.
