In the 1927 vol. 81 issue, pg. 128: Early Probate Records of New Haven. "Mansfield, Gillian, deceased Dec. 8, 1669. Will made Jan. 12, 1669. Bequesths to sons Joseph & Moses, to Mary, wife of Joseph, to Mercy, wife of Moses, to Joseph's children, to Abigail & Mercy & Hannah, daughters of Moses, and to Agnes, wife of John Sackett. Witnesses: James Bishop & Agnes Sackett." Also on p.g 132: Sackett, John, Sr. Inventory taken Oct. 6, 1684, by John Winston & John Alling, Jr. Liber 382:10:02 If Agnes Tinkham was the wife of John Sackett, Sr., then how does this Agnes, wife of John Sackett fit in under this Gillian Mansfield's above probate? Any ideas?

Good point, Mary Lou! Since she's a witness, perhaps Gillian is repaying her for caring for him in his old age or some such. The SACKETT's might have been neighbors of the MANSFIELD's. I searched and did not find MANSFIELD related in any way. As far as I could see, there is no other "Agnes" who married a John SACKETT. Maybe she was married to a TINKHAM before she married John SACKETT! If Thurmon could search his database for given names of Agnes, someone might show. I looked at them one by one in an appropriate date range. But it's in New Haven! Very interesting! It intrigued me to take a look this AM when I should be working on TSFA and a multitude of other things like the laundry. ;) Thanks...Nancy Later...Nancy Nancy Cluff Siders List Admin LIFE: Live.

I don't have the info in front of me right now, but I know that Tinkham was Agnes's maiden name.

Tom, I would love to see primary sources for it. Is there a will perhaps...? Everything I have ever seen has been pure speculation. Thanks!
