I have been asked by a young woman who is one of the R.E. agents I manage, to have her bridal party prepare for her beach wedding at my home on Saturday. I couldn't say no, and have sadly cancelled my hotel reservations. I'll certainly be with you in spirit! Anxious to hear where and when the next reunion is! Have a fabulous celebration of family! Hope someone is going to take and share lots of photos.

Hi Everyone, This is a message to all of you who are flying in for the reunion. I thought I should give you some directions to get to the hotel from the airport as the hotel is not near the airport. These directions are for those attendees who are flying into the Hartford/Springfield airport also known as Bradley International or BDL which is located in Windsor Locks, CT. >From the rental car area you would proceed to Route 20 East which is locally called the Bradley Connector. It is a direct connection between the airport and the major local highway which is Route I-91. When you get to I-91 drive NORTH towards Springfield, MA. (You will be getting onto the highway from Route 20 at Exit 40 and for a reference point, Exit 49 will be the last exit in Connecticut before you enter Massachusetts). After you enter Massachusetts, stay on Route 91 and you will see downtown Springfield on your right. You will stay on Route 91 until you get to EXIT 14 which is the entrance to the Mass Turnpike (Route 90). The Mass Turnpike is a toll road, but even though you will get a ticket at the toll booth, there is no charge to travel on the Pike between Springfield and Westfield. Go WEST on the Mass Pike until you get to EXIT 3 in Westfield and get off there. Don’t miss that exit as the next exit is about 1 hour away in Lee Massachusetts!!! When you get off the exit proceed directly across to the Holiday Inn Express. If you are bringing a GPS and want to plug in the hotel address, it is: 39 Southampton Rd. Westfield, MA 01085. If you are traveling and get lost, the hotel number is: 413-564-6900. If you want to call me for directions when you arrive, my cell number is: 860-830-3743. I will be checking into the hotel Wednesday afternoon so I will be there Wednesday evening as will Deb and Steve. Looking forward to seeing you all!! Sharon
Welcome Diane, member #380! I was pleased to welcome your brother Steve, just a few weeks ago. The Sackett Family Association's motto: Research, Share, Preserve are certainly what we are all about. From your note to Jean I saw that you had mentioned your father and his research - that of courthouse visits and microfilms. That's still a part of genealogy, but the internet with all it's good points and bad, has made connecting to families so amazing! I am so glad that you and Steve found us! This is a great group of people, and I would like to welcome you to our group! Debbie Barbee TSFA President
Debbie.... Thank you so much for writing. Our little Sackett family, always said that we are so few in number. It's wonderful to know that we have a larger family. My dad would be very pleased to know of all the Sacketts, scattered, literally, around the globe! I guess we are the "southern" branch-ha. The format of the website is extremely easy to use and full of information. I've never seen anything like it. It is fun to read and I learn something new every time I visit. Thank YOU, for all the time and effort you have spent to help make The Sackett Association what it is.

Hi Everyone, As part of the Saturday morning 9/22 reunion agenda, Mr. Stuart Strothman will be talking to our group regarding Sackett New England history and his book entitled “Sackett”. He has just forwarded some information to me and I am passing it along to all of you for your information. His new novel, Sackett, has just become available online at http://sackettbook.com. On going to the website, I noticed that under the Title “Praise for Sackett”, there are reviews of the book from several notables including our Thurmon King. If interested, he will be bringing the books to the reunion and I believe he said there will be a lower price than that on line. Sharon Powalka Co-Convener Sackett Reunion 2012

Glenna, I agree that the Jonathan Sackett who married Lucinda/Lucinday Plumb was the father of sons, Daniel, Gad/James, and Isaac. However, I believe that Jonathan died, or divorced/deserted, Lucinda after Isaac was born. There are three reasons for this belief. 1) According to Weygant, a Rev. Baldwin was a guardian for Gad and renamed him James. There would have been no reason for Rev. Baldwin to have been his guardian if Jonathan Sackett was still involved with the family. 2) In her 1839 letter to James, his mother, Lucinda, says; "Isaac is Married and has a large family he is poor and has to work very hard for a living. I dont feel as though I could make it my home with him to be one more on his hands I have always lived out in some family until I am worn out with hard work. I am now with my Sister your Aunt Susan. I presume you do not remember any of your relations, this Sister I am with is all I have living now." This indicates that Lucinda had been living in other households, working as a servant for years. She was now living with her sister, Susan. This indicates that Jonathan was not involved with her, probably dead. Lucinda's sister Susan presents a little problem. The records I have found for the family of John Still Plumb, has Joel and Lucinda listed, but no daughter named Susan. There was Elizabeth, b. 1775, Frances, b. 1782 and Sarah, b. 1790. It is possible that Sarah was known as Susan. Thus far, I have found nothing to indicate who the parents of Jonathan Sackett, husband of Lucinda Plumb, might have been. 3) When Lucinda wrote the 1839 letter, she was living in New Haven, not Milford where "old" Mrs. Jonathan Sackett died. Now, concerning the Jonathan Sackett who died in Milford in 1849; I have seen his age at death given as 85, 87, 88, and 89. He is listed in the census as a resident of Milford in 1820 and 1830. I haven't been able to find him listed in the 1840 census. In 1820, he and his wife are listed as age 45+ [born before 1775]. In the 1830 census they are both listed as age 60-70 [born 1760-1770]. The age of his wife does not match that of Lucinda (Plumb) Sackett. So, who was the Jonathan Sackett in Milford, CT? See: http://www.sackettfamily.info/g6/p6563.htm http://sackettfamily.info/tekdatabase/g7/p7068.htm See also: The abstract of William Sackett's will at: http://sackettfamily.info/tekdatabase/g7/p7045.htm Chris has a bit more information for him than I had in the database. However, I have added some census information for Jonathan and his brother Daniel who was in Milford, CT before Jonathan arrived.

Jonathan's brother, Daniel, died in 1822 in Milford so his widow Martha is listed in 1830 and 1840: 1830 Sackett, Martha Year: 1830; State: CT; County: New Haven; Township: Milford Roll: M19_9 Page: 287 Census: 000 000 000 000 0 - 000 000 100 100 0 Sackett, Jonathan Year: 1830; State: CT; County: New Haven; Township: Milford Roll: M19_9 Page: 293 Census: 000 000 001 000 0 - 000 000 001 000 0 1840 Sacket, Martha Year: 1840; State: CT; County: New Haven; Township: Milford Roll: M704_28 Page: 289 Census: 000 000 000 000 0 - 000 000 000 010 0 As stated above, I was not able to find Jonathan in the 1840 census. However, it appears that it was his wife, Sarah (Banks) Sackett who died in 1842 and Jonathan died in 1849. Both in Milford, New Haven, CT. ------ May 25, 1849 Boston Evening Transcript, Massachusetts Deaths At Milford, Mr. Jonathan Sackett, a revolutionary soldier, 89 [possibly a transcription error]. ------ http://www.sackettfamily.info/g6/p6563.htm "Historical Newspapers, Birth, Marriage, & Death Announcements, 1851–2003", digital image, Ancestry.com (http://search.ancestry.co.uk), Hartford Daily Courant, Hartford, Ct, 23 May 1849, "Deaths—At Milford, Mr. Jonathan Sackett, aged 88—a revolutionary soldier." Jonathan Sackett was born 22 Sep 1761. Subtracting 1761 from 1849 gives 88 years. However, I saw one record that gives his date of death as 18 May 1849 with the 23 and 25 May being the publication date of the newspapers named. That calculates to him being age 87 years, 7 months, 26-31 days, at the time of his death. He had lived 87 years and could have been considered as being in his 88th year. Thurmon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Glenna Hertzler" <ghertzl@sbcglobal.net> To: <sackett@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2012 11:16 AM Subject: [SACKETT] Jonathan Sackett died 1798 Jonathan Sackett ( -1798), s of John and Hannah (Smith)Sackett; m______________, 7 children (Jacobus, v7, p 1584) WHAT IF, We know that John and Hannah Smith married 29 November 1721. (TK database) So, they may have had a child born sometime in 1722? They do have a first child named Jonathan. We know that Jonathan Sackett ( -1798) had a natural (illegitimate) child born in 1766. He also had seven other children, the oldest birthdate of the seven listed is 1767. We know that the name of the natural child’s mother was Mary Ford. (Families of Ancient New Haven, vol 1, page 243, 247, War Service Records) Jonathan ( -1798) died when his natural child was 32 years old. I am going to give the natural child (born 1766), who to this point has no assigned name, the name Jonathan after his father. I believe that it is possible that Jonathan, natural child, age 36 is the same Jonathan Sackett who married Lucinda Plumb in 1802 when she was almost 17 years old. (There is also a Jonathan Sackett in this area who died young who could be a possible father of three children who died? but I believe he was only 17 when he died.) Sometime soon after the 1802 marriage Jonathan and Lucinda had a male child (Daniel) and 10 months later in 1804 another male child whom they named Gad. And by 1806 a third male child named Isaac. For whatever reason the father Jonathan seems to not have supported the mother and three young boys. So, the middle child Gad was bound out to a Baldwin family to raise. Lucinda was still living but must have been deserted/divorced from her husband if he was still living? The Baldwins changed Gad’s name to James. There are no official records for this but we do have a handwritten family note stating this fact. (See TK’s database, M 205, James Sacket) After some time with the Baldwins it appears that (Gad) James ended up living with perhaps a Sackett relative (named Joel?) in New York State. The handed down family story is that in the year 1819 some sea captains came by the home where he was and offered him the job of helping them go west to Illinois. (Gad) James was 15 years old at the time and it was said that his “Dad” didn’t like letting him go but felt that there was more opportunity in going west. Lucinda Sackett had no contact with (Gad) James until 35 years later in 1839. According to her letter of that date both her other sons, Daniel and Isaac, lived near her in New Haven. James began to look back East for his family. He wrote a letter to Daniel who never answered. (Later James found out that Daniel could not write.) James also wrote to his Uncle Joel who did write? Or Joel was in touch with Lucinda, and Lucinda saw the letter and was confused and upset about what Joel had said about her?In 1839 James received a letter from his mother, Lucinda Sackett, in which she introduced herself, talked about his brothers and asked for a response. Then what happened? Connecticut Private Records, New Haven Co, Deaths & Marriages, 1826-1883; “old” Mrs. Jonathan Sackett, d Dec 1, 1842. Daniel and Isaac and their families moved to Illinois about 1842. Our Lucinda would have been; 57 years old, if? b July 22, 1785 d Dec 1, 1842 Jonathan Sackett was born ca 1764 and died Milford 18 May 1849 ae 85, “New Haven Daily Register” says he was a Revolutionary War soldier and died in Milford.

Hi Jean, My intent was to raise awareness of this Jonathan to others who may have possible connections. I do accept that it is a tentative conclusion. Perhaps someone reading will know of my elusive Jonathan who married Lucinda Plumb in 1802. See you at the Reunion.

Glenna, It sounds plausible enough to me to be recorded in our research, as long as it is flagged as a tentative conclusion. I think it's always valuable to have carefully thought-out scenarios available for further research. Who knows--someday we may find enough evidence for a full proof.

Although I was interested in her work, I was not closely involved, but I am trying to review it with the plan of donating family history and genealogy documents and other references to one or more libraries and societies. You may have this in mind already, but the NEHGS in Boston are always keen to take documents, etc. They mail their members frequently with reminders about this. My view is that it would make sense for all Sackett materials, when ready for deposit, to be placed in one depository. We could usefully discuss this at the reunion business meeting. If you are talking to NEHGS, it would be helpful to get any guidelines they may have on procedures for depositing materials. Regards, Chris
I live in Cambridge, MA, and along with my deceased sister, Mary Lou Sackett, helped with some arrangements for the 2006 reunion in Cambridge, at which the idea for the plaque for Simon Sackett to be placed in the Old Burial Ground in Cambridge was put forward. I agreed to be a local liaison for the effort, but not to take a leading role. Following the reunion, I obtained some information about the procedure for placing such a plaque from the Cambridge Historical Commission, a city agency, which must give its approval, and forwarded that information to the TSFA. Although there was interest in the idea, no one wanted to take the lead. As far as I know, this effort has had no further activity and is on indefinite hold unless someone wants to come forward to take the lead. I think it would be appropriate at the upcoming reunion to make a decision to either drop the idea or not. As long as I'm writing, I'll put out a request--Is there anyone in the eastern Massachusetts vicinity that might be willing to help me, mainly with advice, in dealing with my deceased sister's genealogical materials and data? Although I was interested in her work, I was not closely involved, but I am trying to review it with the plan of donating family history and genealogy documents and other references to one or more libraries and societies. _____________ Lester L.

Just in case this hasn't been put here..great volunteer site http://ma-vitalrecords.org
Jonathan Sackett ( -1798), s of John and Hannah (Smith)Sackett; m______________, 7 children (Jacobus, v7, p 1584) WHAT IF, We know that John and Hannah Smith married 29 November 1721. (TK database) So, they may have had a child born sometime in 1722? They do have a first child named Jonathan. We know that Jonathan Sackett ( -1798) had a natural (illegitimate) child born in 1766. He also had seven other children, the oldest birthdate of the seven listed is 1767. We know that the name of the natural child’s mother was Mary Ford. (Families of Ancient New Haven, vol 1, page 243, 247, War Service Records) Jonathan ( -1798) died when his natural child was 32 years old. I am going to give the natural child (born 1766), who to this point has no assigned name, the name Jonathan after his father. I believe that it is possible that Jonathan, natural child, age 36 is the same Jonathan Sackett who married Lucinda Plumb in 1802 when she was almost 17 years old. (There is also a Jonathan Sackett in this area who died young who could be a possible father of three children who died? but I believe he was only 17 when he died.) Sometime soon after the 1802 marriage Jonathan and Lucinda had a male child (Daniel) and 10 months later in 1804 another male child whom they named Gad. And by 1806 a third male child named Isaac. For whatever reason the father Jonathan seems to not have supported the mother and three young boys. So, the middle child Gad was bound out to a Baldwin family to raise. Lucinda was still living but must have been deserted/divorced from her husband if he was still living? The Baldwins changed Gad’s name to James. There are no official records for this but we do have a handwritten family note stating this fact. (See TK’s database, M 205, James Sacket) After some time with the Baldwins it appears that (Gad) James ended up living with perhaps a Sackett relative (named Joel?) in New York State.

Lucinda Sackett had no contact with (Gad) James until 35 years later in 1839. According to her letter of that date both her other sons, Daniel and Isaac, lived near her in New Haven. James began to look back East for his family. He wrote a letter to Daniel who never answered. (Later James found out that Daniel could not write.) James also wrote to his Uncle Joel who did write? Or Joel was in touch with Lucinda, and Lucinda saw the letter and was confused and upset about what Joel had said about her?In 1839 James received a letter from his mother, Lucinda Sackett, in which she introduced herself, talked about his brothers and asked for a response. Then what happened? Connecticut Private Records, New Haven Co, Deaths & Marriages, 1826-1883; “old” Mrs. Jonathan Sackett, d Dec 1, 1842. Daniel and Isaac and their families moved to Illinois about 1842. Our Lucinda would have been; 57 years old, if? b July 22, 1785 d Dec 1, 1842 Jonathan Sackett was born ca 1764 and died Milford 18 May 1849 ae 85, “New Haven Daily Register” says he was a Revolutionary War soldier and died in Milford.

Thank you very much. Looking forward to working with you all. I've spent a lot of time the last 3 years researching family I did not know I even had. It has been a challenge and sure glad I came across your association. Looking forward to maybe getting to a reunion in the future. Thanks again.
