Probably related to my husband. His great-grandfather Elijah came from NY state to Kent County there where lots of children and brothers and sisters. I am still trying to put them all together. Not easy with the little we know. Do know Judith Davis married our first Guile in Massachusetts both were from England early 1600's. Don't be surprised to find the two reconnect back there. Don't know if I have confused you more or not. But it looks like most of the Guile's all came out of one family. They really scattered from the northeast and lots ended up in New York State.
