I live in Maine in the summers and in Florida in the winters. I am researching the OLMSTED (OMSTED/OLMSTEAD, etc.) who were first found in Brookfield cira 1712. One of my stonewalls is Elizabeth LITTEN, who married Jeremiah OMSTED in 1734. I have not found her surname in New England that early, and can only conclude that it SOUNDED like Litten. I have seen the original church record in the Brookfield Town Clerk's office, and it is definately spelled LITTEN. Any ideas? Carl Hommel
