I am researching the immediate ancestors of George STURTEVANT who was born probably about 1809. I'm not sure, but I suspect this date comes from the 1850 US Census (Halifax?). I have another note from the Internet that the Halifax VR gives his birth date as Feb, 9, 1805, but have not been able to find that entry in the published Halifax V.R. volume. His son, Rufus Miles STURTEVANT, born about 1830 (based on US 1850 census for Hanover and Civil War enlistment records), claimed birth in Pembroke (1st marriage record), but I have a note that a Rufus STURTEVANT, son of George, was born in Hanover Center 0n 17 Feb 1830. Pembroke Centre Cemetery Inscr. (G.R.-1)- "Pembroke Vit. Recs." "George, h. Naomi S. ---" gives birth date as "Feb 1809"; birth rec. "Halifax Vit. Recs." states "Feb 9, 1805". -?? (Can't find there). Pending further research, George STURTEVANT (b. ca. 1809) could be a son of either of the following-: Rufus Sturtevant, b. 23 April 1773, s. of Josiah Sturtevant, Esq. & Lois --- (Halifax VR, p. 26); OR George Sturtevant, b. 23 January 1775, s. of Josiah Sturtevant, Esq. & Lois --- (Halifax VR, p. 26). (Lois' maiden name was FULLER, descendant of Edward FULLER of "Mayflower", brother of Dr. Samuel FULLER of ythe "Mayflower".) The names of both of the above brothers strongly suggest that this is the family line I'm looking for, except for the fact that each seems to have moved from Massachusetts - George (who m. Betsey Washburn of Reading, Mass,) to Hartford, Vermont; and Rufus, who married a Mary MANNING (of a Connecticut family?), to New York. I have checked into several other families in the Pembroke-Halifax-Hanover areas but none seems to fit. I've checked for second marriages for either of the above, and siblings who might have been father of George (b. ca. 1809), but no luck. Can anyone help clarify this problem? THanks. Len
