• Notes

  May have died young. C.C. Baldwin in "The Baldwin Genealogy" gives a christening date for Abigail of 29 December 1650. I don't know where C.C. Baldwin came up with this date. The indexed record attached below under Sources only gives a birth year of 1650. In the Barbour collection, Abigail is simply listed with a baptism year of 1650 by Reverend Peter Prudden. This is probably the most accurate record. The Reverend Prudden was the preacher in Milford. Although christened in Milford, Abigail may have actually been born in Guilford. The Barbour collection gives no death date for Abigail. C.C. Baldwin gives a death date of 1660. I don't know where that date came from. There is no death date listed in "Families of Early Milford, Connecticut," but the author of this book does list a baptism date of 29 December 1650. Her father died in January of 1664/5, and Abigail was not mentioned in the will, which may indicate that she died young. Nathan and his wife Tamar, came to Marion county in the spring of 1820 from Connectict. The attraction of New Connecticut, as the Western Reserve was called, was cheap, new land and an opportunity to escape population pressures that were building in New England, He married in Connecticut about 1801-1803, his first wife, Tamar Keeler and married 22 May 1843 in Marion County, Ohio, Sarah Camp, his second wife. Sarah was born in PA about 1790 and died by 13 June 1861 when the inventory of Nathan's estate was done. Nathan and William Garberson founded the Caledonia Methodist Church in 1830. The church was built of native rock. Nathan also formed the 1st Grand jury to try a murderer and theif in Claridon. Nathan was the jury foreman.
