Notes:

BIRTH: Date and place of birth are approximations.
MAR #1: No mar rec found. The wife is called "Frances Clark" on mar to Thomas Dewey, below. The inv of estate of Thomas Dewey of Windsor, 19 May 1648, lists among his children Mary Clarke, age 12, suggesting his wife was previously married to a Clark. See abstract from Hartford District Probate in Charles W. Manwaring, ed, DIGEST OF THE EARLY CONNECTICUT PROBATE RECORDS, 3 vols. (Hartford, 1904-1906), 1:6-7 (FHL #974.6 P2m). It has been stated that she was the widow of Joseph Clark, whose children, Joseph and Mary, were baptized at Windsor 30 Sep 1638. However, Windsor church recs show that Joseph Clark died in 1641, his wife (not named) died on 3 Apr 1639. Joseph Clark, presumably their son, died 2 May 1659, yet the latter was not mentioned with his sister Mary among the heirs of Thomas Dewey. See SOME EARLY RECORDS AND DOCUMENTS OF AND RELATING TO THE TOWN OF WINDSOR, 1639-1703, "The Matthew Grant Record, usually called the Old Church Record" (Hartford, 1930), 77, 79 (FHL #974.62/W1 N2c). Also see "Windsor Births, Marriages, Deaths, 1637-1850, "Barbour Collection (typescript, 1929; Conn. State Library, Hartford), 56 (FHL #002983). For statement of Frances's earlier mar to Joseph Clark, see Adelbert M. Dewey, THE LIFE OF GEORGE DEWEY (Westfield, MA, 1898), 228 (FHL #824302).
