Thanks Harry. I'm stuck at this point. I got Mary Smith's name from the Brainerd genealogy by Lucy Abigail Brainerd; Mary Smith is given as the wife of Joseph Wells. I checked Barbour for Haddam and surrounding areas with no luck; and I was hoping there someone on the list had done work on Haddam proprietor Simon Smith's family.
