Dear Sylvia, I am sorry but I know nothing about him except for birth and death . And even birth record is impossible to find. However, I found a James Schofield on the Arabic sailing from Ireland to New York which would fit his age and when he arrived. He married my grandmother and died before her last baby was born. My Mom is 80 and doesn't even know in which county he was born . I do not think we are connected to the US Schofields who were here very early like yours. Actually, James didn't have an "h" in his name, but my Mom said he may have dropped it. Thanks for your interest.

The spelling is VERY variable. Many Scofields in Connecticut. I want to follow a gut feeling I have that the elusive Susan, sister to George and Thomas , may have ended up in Connecticut. There was a Susan in Conn. at the correct time. My research is usually a winter project however so it may be "down the road " a bit till that stone is turned over. Happy hunting.
