Stephen Kelsey and Lois Griffin

Lois/Samuel/Samuel-----Alvan Talcott, who lived in the 1800's, collected the history of many of the early families of the New Haven Colony. His files form the background for most studies on the genealogy of this region. After reviewing his collection it's obvious that he compiled his material from most of the primary source material available in the town and county records in the colony. Starting with one of the founding fathers he would list their children out for several generations. He would start by listing the children and if he had additional information he would add marriages, etc. This record for the family of Stephen and Lois is from his collection.

  1. Very interesting. Any idea where you got this from? (I'd love to go through some of the pages.) Thanks for sharing it.
