ALLEN
Wondering if notes of Alonzo Allen, town clerk of Croyden in the Civil War era, which were reported to be microfilmed in 1970 with the town records contain any information on 1. His parentage 2. His spouse and descendents.
I have an Alonzo Allen ancestor, and anotherAllen, Dwight S. who married a Frances Streeter... I know there was an Alonzo born in New York State about 1837, and wondered if the Town Clerk was any relation or possibly the same party. I would greatly appreciate any information you could provide for me.

ALLEN
Hello, I found your address on the New Hampshire Web Gen page. I you could help me find a few more of my family, I'd be grateful. My great-great-great grandfather was David Allen, who made his residence in Newport, NH. b. 13 mMay 1777 in Killingworth, CT and d. 27 Dec, 1840, presumably in Newport. I have his father listed as Gideon Allen of Killingworth, CT with wife "Patience" . Nothing more about them. I'd like to trace it back a litte more and try to find if Gideon was a soldier of the Revolution, who he was related to, etc. Any ideas? Have you heard of him? I can provide descendents information, if anyone wants them. Joyce Allen-Luopa

BATCHELDER
Seek parents of Mary Batchelder who m.Asa Kelsey. Gravestones in Maple St. Cem.of Newport state "Asa Kelsey,died 31 August 1831,aged 46 years" and another "Mary, wife of Asa, died 29 April 1833,aged 39 Years". I don't have info on their marriage. Requested marriage record from NH Bureau of Vital Records some 7 weeks ago hoping it would note parents. But no reply yet. Alternatively, the census of 1820 might shed some light on this. Do you have access to the census and would you look it up for me. I'd be most appreciative. This has been frustrating since they are my gggparents. Thanks very much. Dick Brown

Ben later studied at Dartmouth to become a minister, graduating in 1784. By 1790, Rev. Ben had married Caroline Matilda Fuller at Dartmouth. I would love to find Mrs. Nabby. Thank you. Bill Boyle

HUTCHINSON & GOODWIN
The published town records of Newport, Sullivan Co., NH, show the marriage of Abigail HUTCHINSON to Benjamin GOODWIN in 1796. There is however an apparently later entry duplicating the same year of marriage which gives her first name differently, so there is unfortunately even some minor doubt whether her first name was Abigail. Her grandson prepared a diary in the late 1800s which identified his grandmother as Abigail HUTCHINSON, born 13 January 1768 in Andover, MA. However, there is no such birth in the published Andover town records. Would appreciate any information on her or any information, thoughts or suggestions on any HUTCHINSON families in the vicinity of Sullivant Co. NH between 1770 and 1800. Also interested in exchanging information with anyone working on the GOODWINS of Newport. -- Kit

The one lead that I have comes from the Gen. Dictionary of Me & NH of John Heath,Haverhill., m.14 Nov.1666 to Sarah Partridge,(William). Both of Hampt., He 21 Sep.1706,she July. 1718. 1 ch.b.

Hello. Hope I'm submitting this correctly. I can find nothing on the internet, census, LDS, etc. We're looking for any information on my husband's great-grandmother HELEN MAR SMART who was born in Corydon. I would guess she was born between 1825-1855. Believe she came with her parents to Michigan. She married Cornelius W. Tompkins here in Michigan, and they were the parents of Katie Helen Tompkins born in 1870. Thank you for anything you might find. I would gladly repay the effort by looking up something for Barry County, Michigan.

STEVENS
Hi, perhaps you could help me locate info on a Peter STEVENS, b. 2 Feb. 1807, Springfield Twp., Sullivan Co. Parents were John W. STEVENS & Anna JUDKINS. I am interested to learn if Peter married while in NH & if perhaps died there. I am researching a Peter STEVENS that according to family bible was b. 1808 in Chester, VT. However, I can not locate any records what so ever of him in VT. This is a long shot, but perhaps he was born in NH, the closest Peter I have found was b. 1807 in Sullivan Co. The only true facts I have is that "my" Peter settled in NYS for a time & married there in 1839. He later settled in IL. & died there. Thanks for any help or suggestions. Pete. Alaska

Sumner - Hutchins
Joshua Hutchins.(Born in Lunenburg, Ma, 27 May 1768, died in Canada.) He lived for a time in Walpole, NH. He married the following two sisters, one at a time! Elizabeth Sumner (b. 14 Aug 1772 place unknown, died in Canada.) Judith 0r Judah Sumner (b. 11 Oct 1775 place unknown, died in Canada.) ****James, Joshua's sister, Matilda Hutchins, married, in Charlestown, in Nov 1803, George Wheaton Sumner of Claremont, NH, but Charles apparently did not have sisters with the names in question. Some- where in the area, the two sisters were born. I am searching for their birthplaces and their parents. I can't afford to come to NH (I live in Vancouver, B.C.) but I would gladly PAY you or any re- searcher you could suggest. Joshua travelled through VT to immigrate to Canada bet. 1790-1799 so he may have met the sisters in VT, but I doubt it. I would bet they are from the Walpole/Charlestown/ Claremont area. Can you help me ? (Judith, or Judah, Sumner is easier to look up as it is less common than Elizabeth, though Eliz. is my g.g.g.grandmother.) Any help at all would be so much appreciated.

I am looking for birth and death records for two of my ancestors: 1. Joab (or Job) Walker b. circa 1790 (in Croydon or Grantham, NH (?))
2. Thankfull Kempton b. circa 1790 (in Croydon, NH. Her father is Samuel(?) Kempton)
Joab and Thankfull were married sometime before 1828 (which is when their son, Henry J. Walker, was born). I have looked in the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Concord for this information, but have come up empty handed. Any information that you can provide will be most appreciated! Sincerely, Jonathan Lamy

WHEELER
I have been searching for several years for my direct ancestor, Whitcher Wheeler, born abt 1774 at Goffstown, m. Lydia Cheney abt 1795. LDS records say his father was Nathaniel Wheeler. The nearest Nathaniel Wheeler I can find is Nathaniel Wheeler, married to Mehitabel Haven of Croydon, NH. Whitcher Wheeler was a Baptist by religion. Whitcher and Lydia's son, George Washington Wheeler, lived most of his life at Bow, NH. Are there any records of the children of Nathaniel and Mehitabel (Haven) Wheeler of Croydon, NH. I know that this Nathaniel was a Rev. War veteran. Thank you and sincerely yours, William M. Hopkins
