That is a relief. You had me worried there for a while. I guess old ggrandfather James was fairly careful. Ithink I am all set now. The rest of it seems to agree with you. BTW, John Talcott's father was governor Joseph, probably a typo. It is too early for me to go digging in files, but I know one of the sources I used was the online CT governor bios. Abigail Clarke's mother was Deborah Gold. There is a lot of stuff on the Gold and Phippen names in CT records and I think that is what I used. I remember corresponding with an avid Phippen researcher. Sorry not to be more exact.
