Have you tried the town records of Norwich, Maine? Do you by any chance know her parents' names? I don't have anything on Schofield either. I did a quick on-line search and didn't come up with anything there either. I do have a John Knight, born abt. 1621 whose children married into my Noyes line. If I find out anything, I will post it.
