(:-) Savage's Genealogical Dictionary, Vol IV , p 124 "SMITH JONATHAN, Wethersfield, s. of Richard the first of the same, made freem. 1657, m. 1 Jan. 1664, Martha, d. of Francis Bushnell, prob. had sev. ch. bef. rem. to Middletown, where he had Gershom, b. Nov. 1679; and Deborah, 23 Sept. 1682; went back to W. where, tho. he sold part of his est. he held other lds. on the E. side of the gr. riv. and join. with his neighb. in obtain. incorpo. of Glastenbury, liv. 1698." If there are problems with this line, please let me know - there aren't any good genealogical libraries in this area, so I have to do most of my research on the web. I think that Harold Walden, who runs the Middlesex County GenWeb page, also has Jonathan's wife as Martha Bushnell. Jane
