With luck you may find him grouped with other families with surnames Beden, Mitchell, Sunderlin/Sunderland, all early Fairfield names. I don't have any ancestry on the Beden name at this time but the Mitchell and Sunderlin/Sunderland names have at least one more generation back. I likely have more specific dates for you but I'll have to dig them out. Give me a few days. Seem to recall that there was a Lydia in the Mitchell family, dtr of Jemima. Will verify if I can.

Hello to the person that has Maria Hemingway's History of Franklin County I wonder if you would be kind enough to look for the Alexandre Murphy family of St Albins in the 1860-1900 time frame. He reportedly worked for the Central Vermont Railroad and was an immigrant from St Jean sur Richelieu, Quebec, the son of an Irish immigrant and a French Canadian Acadian girl. Many thanks, Frank

I am looking for information specifically on Ichabod Clawson who appears to have been in the area from about 1809-1816, earlier if I can find a marriage record (turned 21 in 1802). As for general history, I am aware of the mass migration out of Vermont because of the "year without a summer" (1816) and significantly cold weather patterns for the time I can document him there so far, so I was looking for additional history of the time frame or up to that time. My ancestors are notorious for not appearing in history books ;-) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
