    1. Re: [NYSARATO] Will and Deed resources for Saratoga Co.
    2. Hi Leslie, Wright Brown, b. 1 Jul 1748 in Ware River Parish, Hampshire co., MA and raised in Swanzey, Cheshire Co., NH moved from Swanzey in the spring of 1783 to Saratoga. He is listed in the 1790 census for Saratoga and living between Enis and Stephen Olney. In 1800, Wright Brown is living between Joseph Wright and Oliver Perkins in Saratoga. Funny, one time I thought I saw where he was in Providence, Saratoga Co. in 1800. Don't know where I saw that. Also, in his son's obituary it states they lived in Stillwater. Perhaps they moved there between 1800 and 1808 when they moved to Benton, Ontario co., NY. It states he was born on the battlefield where his father fought during the Rev. War with Col. Hammond from Swanzey. I haven't found a land record for Wright Brown there which seems strange they would sell their property in NH and not buy in NY for twenty years living in the area. When they moved to Benton, they purchased property right away. I did see his name on an early Stillwater map, living next door to Joseph Brown, whom I think was his eldest son. At one time you were looking for a Joseph Brown. Any clues? Sonja ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
