Noah was born in Pawling, New York about 1752 and may have been living there during the Revolutionary War. Another possibility is Bennington, VT. If helpful, Noah's father was named Stephen. Noah's family were among the original settlers of New Haven, CT and Milford, CT. I appreciate any help you can give me.
