    3. Warren....Thank you for the information, as well as phone numbers. I see I have a mission Mon. A.M. I appreciate the help. One question, if I may? What type of industry would have attracted immigrants in the late 1880's (c. 1883) to New Britain?

    3. Hi, Cuz -- I have been told in no uncertain terms that there is no documentation to show that John was the father of Francis/1 and Thomas/1. And Thomas spelled his name using some variant of WETMORE before settling on WHITMORE in his will. I don't know if there is anything firm connecting Thomas/1 with Francis/2, more than the latter's move to Middletown. The two girls, supposedly their sisters, married and stayed in MA. The youngest, John (Jr.), went with this father and stepmother in the Rev. Denton's hegira to Stamford in 1641. John Sr. was killed by Mohegan Indians in 1648, as you know. I've never heard about any will. Alas, until some evidence of their origins is turned up in the UK we're probably stuck. Supposedly they took ship from Bristol, and curiously that's where there is the densest collection of WETMOREs in ENG today.

Mary married John 1 Apr 1686 in Middletown, and after John's death in 1696 married Obadiah Allen. I don't have other children listed for either marriage, though there probably were some. For the other Elizabeth, daughter of John Whitmore & Abigail Warner, I have only a death date of 31 Jan 1743. Looking back at A.W. Savage's references for his facts on this Elizabeth, I find he cites Adams, "Middletown Upper Houses", p 159, for the death date and Savage, "Family of John Savage", p 10, for her parentage and first marriage to Daniel Clark. As for Francis Wetmore Sr, in his will he does mention a daughter Elizabeth, amongst others. I take it you're suggesting that these Elizabeths are the same, and the John Whitmore/Wetmores mentioned are the same, leading to the question of which wife was mother of Elizabeth--Abigail Warner (first wife) or Mary Savage (second wife). Susan replied with good information on the Elizabeths and the various marriages. I really have no other information to add. But I'd like to ask where is that online version of the Wetmore genealogy?

    3. Thanks, David. That was my first suspicion. The man I call Francis "Jr." is Francis/2 WHITMORE, son of Francis/1 WHITMORE of Cambridge, MBC -- who was brother to my Thomas/1 WHITMORE/WETMORE. Thomas, of course, was uncle to Francis/2 and that's probably why Francis/2 moved to Middletown out of all the towns in Colonial New England.

Do note the same ledger and page number for the 1st Elizabeth and John's 2 marriages. If this Eliz. is dau. of this John and Mary, then they probably married with a shotgun to John's head - note the dates. Of course double dating may enter in here?? Savage, IV:527 says Elizabeth dau. of John and Mary was born 20 Mar 1687. Sooo her DOB probably should read 20 Mar 1686/87??? Here's Abigail's death listing in 1685 which is in line for a 2nd marriage the following year: I-Z:481: "Abiga[i]ll, w. of John, d. May 5, 1685 LR1:32" There is no marriage listing for Elizabeth and a CLARK in the WETMORE/WETTMORE or the WHITMORE sections of BarbourMiddletown. --- Susan >Best, > >Warren > > >----- Original Message ----- >From: <[email protected]> >To: <[email protected]> >Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 12:29 PM >Subject: Re: [CTMID] Elizabeth WHITMORE (1684-1743) Middletown, CT > > >| In a message dated 1/16/02 10:47:44 PM, [email protected] writes: >| >| << Elizabeth WHITMORE (1684-1743) m.

    3. Hi, Cuz Dona -- Thanks very much. The e-version of the J Carnahan Wetmore genealogy has an Elizabeth as the child of John WHITMORE/WETMORE and his second wife, Mary SAVAGE, d/o John SAVAGE and Mary DUBBIN, I think. From his first marriage to Abigail he had Thomas and Abigail, says JCW. Any idea of which is right?
