I am looking for the parents of Absalom Backus. I believe he was born in Pittsfield about 1780. He married Abigail Luce ( I am looking for her parents too) in 1803 in Pittsfield. She died in 1824 and he died in 1855, both in Pittsfield. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Judith Wilson ayphoto@pacbell.net Redding CA
