I wondered if the person kind enough to have been doing lookups in the Barbour collection might be willing to check for the names CODRINGTON and Foster I have several Cods originally from Jamaica BWI who leave wills noting residence in New Haven or "just outside New Haven" and have yet to locate their gravesites. These people were active in the area from 1800- about 1875 and had in-laws in the Foster family of New Haven one of whom was Eleazer Kingsbury Foster who was active in both local and state politics. Any help appreciated Chris Codrington C.M.

No, Barb, I've not run across your Bronsons.. Mine are most likely originally from England, if I can get her placed in the family correctly.. I'm most convinced she is an undocumented daughter of Abel Blakeslee Bronson and Elizabeth Mallory, but I've not found the evidence. Grace, thank you very much! Not finding her there is actually GOOD news.. Her headstone was most difficult to read, I've been told, and place of birth was translated as being either North Haven or New Haven, and "perhaps" eliminating North Haven, leaves the rest of the county open. Abel B. Bronson moved back and forth from New Haven and Litchfield Cos. (1800 New Haven, 1810 Roxbury, Litchfield), and the census information indicates one more female child than is documented, and a there is a eerie similiarity of names in Anice's children, and Abel B's.
