Hi Ron this is the fellow who is trying to find out the info I asked you for. His email is here. He apparently had been on the Ludington list at one time and wants to get back on it. Do you want to email him? I know that you might be able to help as you are the WIZ hee hee.

All I have to go on is that in his History of Livingston County (NY) Smith says that Jesse (listed elsewhere as the son of Richard Blake and Demaris Smedley) was married to Sallie Luddington whose father served as a guard to General Washington during the Revolution. I found the graves of all 4 at the Union Cemetery in Livonia NY last fall. Sallie's headstone actually names her as Sarah. The only thing other than that that I have found is on the 1790 census of Litchfield Connecticut where a Richard Blake is listed a few names above an Eliphalet Luddington. That's about as close as I have come. Eliphalet seems to be a common name among the Luddington clan although Jesse Blake and Sallie Luddington did have a son named Eliphalet. That's all I know for now. If you have any thing to add please send it along. Also do you have an address for the Luddington-L list. I can't seem to relocate it. Thanks Bill Pickard (perhaps a long lost cousin) _________________________________________________________________ Laugh, share and connect with Windows Live Messenger http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwme0020000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://imagine-msn.com/messenger/launch80/default.aspx?locale=en-us&source=hmtagline
