Truesdell" I came across some info in my database from J. Kelsey Jones, email: montrose@ptdprolog.net that named this William Lake as being the same as: "Bille Lake", b. 23 Sep 1758, son of Samuel Lake and Abigail Roberts of Kent, CT. Samuel was the son of James Samuel Lake and Mary/Mercy Rogers of New Milford. The difference in this birth date and the one you posted of "22 Sep 1759" are similar enough that it would seem likely that there may be a transcription error of some kind, either from baptismal or other records. Other children of Samuel and Abigail are named as: Rogers Lake, b. 5 Dec 1756 Phebe, b. 6 Aug 1760 Abigail, b. 17 May 1762 Rhoda, b. 25 Mar 1764 Lucy, 5 Mar 1766 Content, 17 Jun 1767 Olive, 8 Jun 1769 Mathilda, 18 Aug 1770 All born in Kent, Litchfield, CT. I have gone thru my files to try and find any record of correspondence with J. Kelsey Jones but have come up empty so this info may have been either from email or an online database, I'm not sure. It may be something worth pursuing. regards, Annette Truesdell
