Thanks very much Grace. James Coburn (sometimes spelled Cobon) was in Meriden as a boy and may have been born there. I have not been able to find out who his parents were. James Coburn's and his Lydia Ellis' children were all born in Wallingford. I have the info on their births from the "History of Ancient New Haven," but we can not find anything on the children indicating they stayed in Wallingford after their births. We think Jane Coburn, one of their children, was my gr-gr-gr-grandmother, but am trying to get more proof. Your help is greatly appreciated.
