Dear All, According to Weygant p57, 75 Capt Richard Sackett settled his family in Dutchess County in 1711. The 1714 Dutchess County Census at http://www.rootsweb.com/~nydutche/1714cen.htm shows no entry for Sackett. Weygant does go on to report the remoteness of Sackett's homestead. Maybe the census taker didn't find him out in the backwoods! :-) Best.. Chris
