In New Haven, I'm researching the following line: ANDREWS: CONN>WI>MN>CA Robert Nathaniel ANDREWS, born July 6, 1827, Cheshire Connecticut, married Sarah Favorite SHEPARD, born Oct. 31, 1831, in 1849. Sarah Shepard was the daughter of Isaac SHEPARD and Sarah LINDSEY of Southington, Hartford, Connecticut. Robert and Sarah had four children, Rupert Andrews, Helmus Andrews, Alice Andrews, and Lois Andrews McKee. Robert ANDREWS is a major brick wall. I have been unable to locate any birth or Christening record and thus have no clue as to his parents. Michal Happy 4th of July!
