  • Thomas Betts (1618 - 1688)
    THOMAS BETTS (1618 - 1688) and HIS DESCENDANTS Princip::illy compiled by CHARLES WYllYS BETTS New York, 1888 Indexed by William E. Weihrouch 1991 The accompanying history of Thomas Betts and his descenfu\nts was principally compiled by the late C. Wyllys Betts (482). At his death on April 27, 1887, the larger part of the history down to and including part of the "FIFTH GENERATION," was al­ ready in the bands of the printer. It was not his intention at this time, as I am informed, to carry the family history in detail further than the fifth generation, except in the case of his own immediate branch of it, the descendants of Samuel Comstock Betts (63) and Uriah Betts (237). He had in 1886 published a catalogue of the descendants of Samuel Comstock Betts in the line of Zebulon Betts (237), and it was, perhaps, his in­ tention at a later period, but not in the present volume, to continue to the present time the list of desceudants of all branches of the family. His death terminated any such plans, and placed upon me, his brother, the duty of carrying forward his unfinished work, as far as it bad been already entered upon. I have completed his work as far as possible for me to do by using the materials which he left, and by following the lines of in­ quiry upon whicll he had already entered. I have commenced no independent investigations .• Any omissions are due to the fact that the work is thus pre­ sented. The history of the descendants of U ria Betts (237) has, however, been written wholly by me, because personally known.

In p reparing for the printer the work which blindness obliged him to leave incomplete, I have endeavored to follow his example of accuracy and honesty; in spite of this many errors and omissions may have unavoidably occurred and I shall be grateful to anyone who will call my attention to them, that they may be rectified in another edition. The u sual plan is followed in this Genealogy, of having the descendants numbered consecutively, the star (*) prefixed to the number indicating that the record of this person is carried forward another generation and will be found in the next gen eration under the same number, but in larger type and this time as head of a family.

  • Wilton Village - a History by G
    Preface G. Evans Hubbard first published the Wilton Bulletin as a single sheet in early 1937. On March 17, 1938 it became a weekly of increased size and scope. As its editor, Hubbard began including his history of Wilton in weekly installments. These he continued through mid-1942. These installments have been extracted from microfilm copies of the Bulletin, converted to digital files and cleansed of distortions caused by the microfilming process.. They were then updated to include changes made by Mr. Hubbard in preparation for publication in book form. While this never took place, the first five chapters were published in a 60 page booklet available at the Wilton Library and which the Wilton Historical Society had for sale for many years. Not meant to be read as a book on a standard computer monitor, this presentation of Hubbard’s work is intended as a research tool providing rapid access to names, dates, places or events using the Adobe search provisions. The Adobe reader can even read it to you out loud. And, since it is in digital form, this history could also be self- published in book form after final proofreading.. A Table of Contents is included at the end to aid in visual searching and to give an idea of the topics, events and time periods covered. Adobe bookmarks have been built in to give rapid access to individual chapters. To Search, Go Edit/Search/Current Document/ Enter Term/ Click Search/ see Results with one line context.

HARTFORD: • * J PRESSF O CASE, LOCKWOOD AND BRAINARD. 1870. I \ - CYieolced PREFACE. The p resent publication contains the whole of volume IV. of the manuscript Records of the Colony of Connecticut, and the first sixty- five pages of volume V. It contains also, inserted in chronological order Governor 1716-17. between and sessions Council of from the October Geueral 30th,Assembly, 1710, the to FebruaryRecords of 19th, the The C ouncil Journal from May, 1698, to October, 1710, is not known to be extant. From October, 1710, to October, 1712, the records of the Council are in one thin volume, unpaged, and generally written but on one side of the leaves. The next volume is of 275 pages, and embraces the period between January, 1712-13, and Feb ruary, 1727-28, with an entry of the date of 1743, at the end. The minutes of the Council are in the hand-writing of various persons, Governor Saltonstall, Secretaries Stanly, Haynes, and Wyllys, Richard Christophers, etc: but the greater part of those from 1713 to 1726, is in that of Christopher Christophers, who was Clerk of the Council. In p rinting this volume, I have not thought it necessary to preserve the contractions or abbreviations of the original manuscript, as has been done hitherto, or to follow exactly the spelling, save, in general, in the case of proper names.
