Hello All I am researching the Wightman family in Groton New London. Although this family of the Rev Valentine Wightman and his descendants are fairly well documented I find them a fascinatinating bunch. Rev Valentine Wightman b 1681 in RI moves to Groton in 1705. He married Susannah HOLMES. Next in my line was the Rev. Timothy Wightman b 1719 who married Jane FISH. Jane died giving birth to a son Isaac Wightman b 1733/34 who was the next of my great grandfathers. Isaac married Lucretia Packer and they became parents to Nathan Wightman b 1780. Here is where my Ct line makes a change. Nathan left Ct for Pennsylvania and married Elizabeth Bowen. Suddenly, I have found it difficult to document and find any solid information on Nathan. A fellow researcher a year back helped me locate an entry for Nathan's birth in the Barbour records but short of that all I have are a few census and some family records along with the Wightman book to link Nathan's son William Bowen Wightman to this Ct family. I would be glad for any help and information to help me further document Nathan. He died in Philadelphia PA. I believe this was possibly after 1850 if I have located the correct Nathan on the census in 1850. Kassie Oregon
