Mary Peck (1666 – 1710)

Ahnentafel #3075 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother (11 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

Mary Peck was born in New Haven on 4 March 1665/6, the daughter of John and Mary (Moss) Peck, and she married John Doolittle of Wallingford. She died there on 1 September 1710. She was the mother of Thankful Doolittle, who carried the family forward into the Tuttle line — though care is needed here, since a different woman also named Mary Peck, the daughter of Joseph and Sarah (Alling) Peck, separately married the widower Timothy Tuttle in 1729; the two Mary Pecks belonged to entirely different Wallingford families.

Evidence

⭐⭐⭐ UPGRADED FROM HYPOTHESIS TO PROBABLE, 7 August 2026. Jacobus gives her as “Mary da. John & Mary (Moss) Peck, b 4 Mar 1665/6 NHV, d 1 Sep 1710 WV”, and Tuttle 1883 p. 575n says the same independently: “Mary Peck was dau. of John and Mary (Moss) Peck.”

⚠⚠ THE TRAP, NOW SOURCE-DOCUMENTED. Thankful’s mother was this Mary Peck (1666–1710). Dea. Timothy Tuttle’s second wife, married 1729 (his third, 1749, was Sarah Atwater), was also a Mary Peck — the widow of Stephen Rowe, and “Mary da. Joseph & Sarah (Ailing) Peck, wid. Stephen Rowe” (Jacobus p. 354; his p. 181 gives her own family entry — the earlier ‘Lydia (Ball)’ reading was a transcription error: Jacobus’s only ‘Lydia (Ball)’ is in the unrelated Smith family, p. 120 [TUTTLE-58]), a different Peck family entirely. Two women, same name, same town. Any source that has Timothy marrying his own mother-in-law has merged them — treat that as a red flag on the source.

⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-34]. Named as the mother of Thankful Doolittle on Find a Grave memorial 139363422.

Outstanding: ‘part’ — compiled sources only (Jacobus + Davis + Tuttle 1883); the Wallingford VR images (marriage 13 Feb 1682/3, Thankful’s birth 5 Apr 1688) would move this to ‘ok’ — browser ★5. ⚠⚠ AND A NAME-COLLISION TRAP: her son-in-law Timothy Tuttle later married, in 1729, a DIFFERENT Mary Peck — the widow of Stephen Rowe. This Mary Peck died in 1710 and cannot be that one. Any source showing Timothy marrying his own mother-in-law has merged them; treat that as a red flag on the source.

Samuel Allis (1647 Braintree – 1691 Hatfield)

Ahnentafel #3076 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s father (11 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

Samuel Allis was born in Braintree, Massachusetts, on 24 February 1647, the son of Lieutenant William Allis. He worked as a carpenter and builder in Hatfield, where the town granted him a house lot as a young man of about twenty-two, and he lived on the east side of Hatfield street. He married Alice about 1675-6, and together they had seven children, among them William, born 19 October 1680, from whom this family line descends. Samuel Allis died in Hatfield on 9 March 1691, leaving his widow to raise their children alone; two of those children were later caught up in the 1704 raid on Deerfield that killed their mother — one son killed alongside her, and a daughter carried captive to Canada who survived and came home.

Full dates: 24 Feb 1647 Braintree – 9 Mar 1691 Hatfield; carpenter and builder

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BOLTWOOD’S FULL ENTRY, READ 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-32] (Genealogies of Hadley Families, printed with Judd’s Hadley, image 586): “3. Samuel, s. of William, (1) d. Mch. 9, 1691. m. ALICE, who m.

Nov. 29, 1687.” SEVEN CHILDREN, DATED — and it agrees with the 1919 Allis genealogy on every date the two books share, including our William’s 19 October 1680. ⭐⭐⭐ AND IT CONFIRMS LAST NIGHT’S SHELDON FIND FROM A SECOND DIRECTION: Mary Allis, b. 6 July 1682, is the one who married Nathaniel Brooks — Sheldon says she was “a fellow cap. of 1704”, so she was twenty-one when she was marched to Canada in the raid that killed her mother and her brother, and she came home. ⭐ It also settles the Mehitable conflict logged last turn: Boltwood gives b. 2 July 1677 independently, so the “a. 90” on her 1757 death is the gravestone’s error, not the books’. ⭐ UPGRADED part → ok: two independent authorities — the 1919 Allis genealogy and Boltwood, working a century apart from the Hampshire County records — agree on his death date, his wife, his father and his children’s dates, and a primary Hatfield town record [TUTTLE-27] grants him his house lot in 1669–71. ——— Earlier note: ⭐ UPGRADED hyp → part [TUTTLE-19]: Boltwood independently confirms “Samuel, s. of William, (1) d. Mch. 9, 1691” and the children Mehitable (2 Jul 1677), Samuel (20 Feb 1679) and William (19 Oct 1680). Two independent published authorities now agree on this generation. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 6 Aug 2026 — GENERATION 12. “3. SAMUEL ALLIS was born in Braintree, Mass., on February 24, 1647 … carpenter and builder of Hatfield and resided on the east side of Hatfield street … died in Hatfield on March 9, 1691.” Seven children; ours is the third, William, b. 19 Oct 1680 [TUTTLE-18].

⛔ 11 Sep 2026 — DEMOTED documented → probable [BELL-714]. The badge now matches this node’s OWN long-standing text, which has read, in terms, “A town grant names a grantee, not a father — so this does NOT prove his parentage and the node stays ‘part’” while the chart shipped him as documented. His parent-link rests on the 1919 Allis genealogy and Boltwood — the excluded class. ⚠ Found by the adversary that reviewed the chart-wide re-grade; the audit itself missed it. Outstanding: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A PRIMARY RECORD AT LAST [TUTTLE-27]: the Hatfield town book records that “the Town of Hatfield hath granted to SAMUEL ALLIS a house lot” and acreage, 1669–1671. Born Braintree Feb 1647, he was about twenty-two — the age a young man took a home lot and set up. ⭐ It fits the family’s movement from a wholly separate source: Boltwood has his father Lt. William Allis “rem. abt. 1661 to Hatfield” — father arrives c.1661, son takes his own lot c.1669. ⚠⚠ A town grant names a grantee, not a father — so this does NOT prove his parentage and the node stays ‘part’. But the man himself is now documented from a record rather than only from books. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ TWO MORE OF HIS CHILDREN, 6 Aug 2026, FROM SHELDON’S DEERFIELD GENEALOGIES [TUTTLE-31] — and both come from OTHER families’ entries, which is the strongest kind of citation because the compiler had no interest in the Allis line at all. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MARY ALLIS — A CAPTIVE OF 1704 WHO CAME HOME. Sheldon image 354, in the entry for Nathaniel, s. of William (1), b. 1664 — “house burned and whole family cap. 1704; he alone came back; was recovered by Ens. John Sheldon on his second expedition to Can.”, whose first wife was killed on the march after a fall on the ice — “He m. (2) Feb. 3, 1710, Mary, dau. Samuel Allis of Hat., A FELLOW CAP. OF 1704.” A daughter of this house was carried to Canada in the same raid that killed her mother Alice and her brother Samuel — and she survived it, came back, and married another survivor of it six years later. ⭐⭐⭐ MEHITABLE ALLIS. Sheldon image 506: “MOORE, Benoni … d. Nov. 18, 1753. He m. Dec. 13, 1698, Mehitable, dau. Sam’l Allis of Hat.; she d. May 8, 1757, a. 90.” ⚠⚠ CONFLICT LOGGED: “a. 90” implies b. c.1667, ten years before the 1919 book’s 2 July 1677 and earlier than her parents’ own marriage allows. Gravestone ages are the least reliable figure in New England genealogy; 1677 is preferred and the discrepancy is recorded, not smoothed away. ⚠ Sheldon and Judd also show a Samuel Allis at Hatfield in the May 1667 petition dispute — probably NOT ours, who was born at Braintree in 1647 and took his lot only in 1669–71. Flagged, not attached. ⭐⭐⭐ NEXT: the SAME VOLUME is “Town Records 1660–1740, VITAL RECORDS 1660–1740” — so his 1675-6 marriage should be in it, and that is the likeliest place in existence to find ALICE’S MAIDEN NAME.

Alice (m. 1675/6 – killed 1704 Deerfield)

Ahnentafel #3077 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s mother (11 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

Alice married Samuel Allis of Hatfield about 1675-6 and bore him seven children before his death in 1691 left her a widow. She remarried on 20 November 1696 to Sergeant John Hawks, a veteran of the Falls Fight who had been wounded defending Hatfield in 1676. On 29 February 1704 Alice was killed in the French and Indian raid on Deerfield, along with her twenty-five-year-old son Samuel; her daughter Mary was carried captive to Canada in the same attack but survived and eventually came home. Alice's own family name was never recorded by any of the several genealogists who studied her — she is remembered, in every source, only by her first name.

Evidence

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A SIXTH SOURCE, AND THE RICHEST — 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-46]. Sheldon, History of Deerfield VOLUME ONE, image 61, in the entry for her second husband: “HAWKS, John, son of John of Hadley… He was active through Philip’s war; was in the FALLS FIGHT; and one of the brave men from Hadley who went to the succor of HATFIELD, when attacked by Indians May 30, 1676, when he was WOUNDED. He married in 1667, MARTHA BALDWIN, with whom he lived ten years. He became a permanent settler in 1683, and married in 1696, ALICE, WIDOW OF SAMUEL ALLIS. SHE WAS KILLED FEB. 29, 1704, WHEN ALL HIS CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN OF THE NAME WERE LOST. In his old age he removed to Waterbury, Conn., to live with his only surviving child, who had married Jonathan Scott of that town.” ⚠⚠ “All his children and grandchildren of the name were lost” — the HAWKS name was wiped out in that raid, and his wife with it. He was a Falls Fight veteran who had been wounded relieving Hatfield in 1676; twenty-eight years later he lost his whole family in a morning, and ended his life in Connecticut with the one daughter who was left. ⭐⭐⭐ AND A LEAD WORTH CHASING: his FIRST wife was MARTHA BALDWIN, m. 1667. MARY BALDWIN — node 3083, Alec’s own ancestor — married John Catlin in 1662. Two Baldwin women marrying into Deerfield within five years: almost certainly sisters, and almost certainly daughters of Joseph Baldwin of Milford. ⚠ Recorded as a lead, not a link. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ RE-GRADED ‘part’ → ‘ok’, 6 Aug 2026, AT ALEC’S CHALLENGE [AUDIT-01]. The colour grades WHO THIS PERSON IS AND WHOSE CHILD THEY ARE — not whether every fact about them is known. Loose ends belong in Outstanding, below, and this node has some. They do not make the ancestor uncertain. ⛔⛔ HER SURNAME IS A DOCUMENTED BLANK IN EVERY STANDARD AUTHORITY — FIVE OF THEM NOW [TUTTLE-31/32]. ⭐ But her CHILDREN are no longer a blank. Boltwood gives all seven with dates: Mehitable 2 Jul 1677; Samuel 20 Feb 1679 (slain with her, 29 Feb 1704); WILLIAM 19 Oct 1680; Mary 6 Jul 1682 (carried to Canada in the same raid, and survived); Thomas 12 Mar 1684; Sarah c.1685; Rebecca 29 Nov 1687. She was widowed in 1691 with seven children under fifteen, remarried in 1696, and was killed in 1704. Allis genealogy 1919: a literal blank where the surname goes. Boltwood, in Judd’s Hadley, image 647: “(2) Nov. 20, 1696, Alice, wid. of Samuel Allis of Hat. She was slain by French and Indians, Feb. 29, [1704]”. Sheldon, Deerfield vol. 2, image 453: “(2) Nov. 20, 1696, Alice, wid. of Samuel Allis; she was k. 1704.” Three independent compilers, each with the Hampshire County records in front of them, each declining to name her. ⭐ What they DO agree on is not small: widow of Samuel Allis; remarried Sergt. John Hawks 20 Nov 1696; killed 29 Feb 1704 — TUTTLE-19 now confirmed twice from sources the 1919 book never used. ⛔⛔ AND THIS BURIES THE “ALICE MEEKINS” LEAD [TUTTLE-21]. A gravestone index that supplies a surname three record-reading compilers could not find is supplying something, not reporting it. Not entered. ⭐ If her name is recoverable it will come from a RECORD, not a book: the Hampshire Co. probate of Samuel Allis (d. 9 Mar 1691), the Hatfield marriage of 1675-6, or a Hatfield deed carrying her release of dower. ——— ⚠⚠⚠ UPGRADED hyp → part, and her death FOUND [TUTTLE-19]. Boltwood: “m. ALICE, who m. (2) Sergt. JOHN HAWKS, and was SLAIN IN DEER[FIELD] FEB. 29, 1704.” The Deerfield raid research project, independently: “John Hawks’s wife ALICE, was killed, as was her son SAMUEL ALLIS (b.1679). Their seven-year-old daughter ELIZABETH, was captured and killed on the march to Canada.” Widowed at Hatfield in 1691 with seven children; remarried Nov 1696; killed in the raid on Deerfield, 29 February 1704, together with her 25-year-old son. Alec’s line runs through her third child, WILLIAM, b. 19 Oct 1680 — who was not in Deerfield that night. ⭐ Her second husband John Hawks survived; of his household only a daughter living in Connecticut did.

Outstanding: ⛔⛔⛔ SHE HAS NO MAIDEN NAME IN ANY OF THREE SOURCES [TUTTLE-20]. Boltwood: none. The 1919 Allis genealogy: “he married in 1675-6, Alice , ” — the printed text has a literal BLANK where the surname belongs, so the compiler knew one was missing. The Deerfield project: calls her “Alice Allis,” her FIRST MARRIED name. Three attempts, stopped. ⭐ Her death, though, is now attested by all three — the 1919 book adds “killed at Deerfield on February 29, 1703-4, during the attack by the French and Indians” (⚠ Old Style: 1703-4 and 1704 are one night). What would still answer the surname: Samuel Allis’s Hampshire Co. probate (d. 1691), a Hatfield marriage record for 1675-6, or SHELDON’S HISTORY OF DEERFIELD VOL. 2 GENEALOGIES (the copy reachable tonight stopped at p.702, before the genealogies begin). She joins Martha Nease and Cynthia Ward as a direct ancestor known by a first name only. ⚠ ONE UNVERIFIED LEAD [TUTTLE-21]: a Find a Grave memorial is titled “Alice MEEKINS Hawks (1655–1704)” — the dates fit and Meekins is a real Hatfield surname, but it is user-submitted and uncited, and three careful compilers could not name her. NOT entered as her surname; entered as a lead to test. ⚠⚠ Note also that Sheldon’s Deerfield genealogies — the likeliest place for it — could not be reached: three scans all truncated before Part II. That is a TOOL limit, not a records negative.

10 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-80/-VERDICT]: the compiled tradition itself marks her surname unknown (“Alice ---”). m. 2nd, 20 Nov 1696, John Hawks of Hadley/Deerfield; killed in the Deerfield massacre, 29 Feb 1703/4 (Baldwin Gen. p. 493 + Sheldon, one Savage-rooted tradition — part-level). ⚠ The FaG “Alice Meekins” attribution is diagnosed a probable conflation with Mary Meakins, wife of JOHN Allis — do not adopt. Primary tests: the Hatfield town book (m. ~1675/6), the 1691 Hampshire administration, and the 20 Nov 1696 remarriage entry.

Samuel Davis (~1645 Roxbury – 1690 Northampton)

Ahnentafel #3078 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s father (11 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

Samuel Davis was born about 1645, probably in Roxbury, Massachusetts. A 1649 Roxbury church record lists a Samuel Davis among the children of William Davis, and Samuel Davis was later dismissed from that church to Northampton, where he had settled by 1668 and become a freeman by 1676. He held shares in a local silver and lead mine venture and was a subscriber to Harvard College. He had two wives, the second Elizabeth Smead, daughter of William Smead, whom he married in 1681; his children included sons Samuel and John and three daughters whose names were not recorded. Samuel Davis died in the Northampton epidemic on 26 July 1690.

Evidence

Full dates: b. Roxbury ~1645 – d. 26 July 1690, Northampton, Mass.

⭐⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 7 August 2026 — added at PROBABLE after an adversary pass CONFIRMED the link at exactly this grade [TUTTLE-56]. Savage 2:31: “SAMUEL, Roxbury, perhaps s. of William of the same, rem. to Northampton 1668, was freem. 1676, had two ws. of wh. sec. was Eliz. d. of William Smead, m. 1681; and he d. 26 July 1690, leav. beside three ds. Samuel, b. 1672; and John, 1677.” Trumbull’s Northampton documents the man independently — proprietor in the silver/lead-mine venture (sold shares to Medad Pomeroy), Harvard College subscriber, died in the great 1690 epidemic; his wife was fined in 1676 for wearing silk “in a flaunting manner.” The adversary’s sweep found exactly ONE Davis household of this generation in Northampton — and none in Hadley, Deerfield, or Savage’s valley pages with an Elizabeth of the right age.

⚠ Why Probable: Savage’s three daughters are UNNAMED — no record yet names Elizabeth as his; the tie runs through the 1919 Allis book’s “of Northampton” plus elimination. Migrant candidate William Davis of Roxbury = Savage’s own “perhaps” — a LEAD and a STOP, not on the chart.

Outstanding: The closers: the claimed Northampton birth record (Elizabeth Davis, 20 Jun 1679 — FS image S3HT-691S-CW4, img 00019, cited but UNVIEWED) and Samuel’s 1690 Hampshire Co. probate, which would name the three daughters and test “William of Roxbury.”

Hannah Edwards (m. 1668/9 – d. 1680)

Ahnentafel #3079 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s mother (11 generations back) · Hypothesis — a candidate, not tied in

Hannah Edwards is a candidate — not a confirmed identification — for the first wife of Samuel Davis of Northampton. One compiled source names her as the daughter of Alexander Edwards of Northampton, married to Samuel on 4 March 1668/9 and dead by 11 September 1680, but the underlying record naming both parents has not yet been verified, and the identification remains no more than a hypothesis. An equally unproven alternative is that the relevant daughter descended instead from Samuel's second wife, Elizabeth Smead. Neither possibility has been settled.

Evidence

Also recorded: proposed first wife of Samuel Davis; m. 4 Mar 1668/9 – d. 11 Sep 1680, both uncertain

⚠⚠ NEW NODE, 7 August 2026 — entered at HYPOTHESIS, because the adversary pass REFUTED the finder’s ‘Probable’ [TUTTLE-56]. The identification of Elizabeth’s mother as Hannah, daughter of Alexander Edwards of Northampton (b. 1645 Springfield, m. 4 Mar 1668/9, d. 11 Sep 1680) rests on tree consensus whose one record-shaped leg — the USGWArchives Northampton VR transcription (“Davis, Samuel / Edwards, Hannah, 3/4/1668-9”) — could not be verified from this VM. Savage is silent twice (names neither Samuel’s first wife nor a husband for Alexander Edwards’s Hannah), and the finder’s silk-fine argument was killed on verification (the 1676 list is a town-wide sumptuary roll, not an Edwards grouping).

⚠ The live alternative: Savage never assigns the three daughters to a wife. Samuel remarried Elizabeth Smead in 1681 — a daughter born 1682–86 fits the 1703-4 marriage and 1758 death too. If the Allis bride is a Smead daughter, the father stands and the mother flips.

Outstanding: Verify the USGW Holbrook transcription or an FS birth image naming both parents — either moves this node to Probable. Alexander Edwards’s family record (AmericanAncestors/FS) would lock the marriage.

8 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-68/-VERDICT]: Temple (1875) now documents Hannah Edwards as Samuel’s FIRST wife (m. 4 Mar 1668, d. 11 Sep 1680) independent of the refuted mirror — but his own children list names NO Elizabeth, and the adversary held the node at hyp: the 20 Jun 1679 birth (the whole chronological case) still rests on the unread FS index image. ⚠ Two-Hannahs hazard on file. Flip-check: S3HT-691S-CW4 img 19 by eye; or the Hampshire probate / the new Feb 1721-2 guardianship lead (Ichabod Strong marriage).

Mr. John Catlin (~1643 – killed 1704 Deerfield)

Ahnentafel #3082 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s mother’s father (11 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

John Catlin was born about 1643, the son of a Catlin family of Wethersfield. He lived successively in Wethersfield, Branford, and Newark, New Jersey — where he served as a schoolteacher in 1676, as the town's attorney, and as a selectman for five years — before moving to Hartford and then, about 1683, to Deerfield, Massachusetts, where he was given the honorific title "Mr." and took a leading part in town affairs. On 29 February 1704, during the French and Indian raid on Deerfield, John Catlin and his son Jonathan were killed defending their house, which was then burned; another son was killed in the fighting that followed in the meadow, and a third son, also John, was carried captive to Canada, later returning to rebuild on the same ground and becoming known locally as "Master Catlin." Two of his daughters, Elizabeth and Mary, died on the forced march to Canada after the raid; a third daughter, Sarah, had already married and left the household, which is why this line of the family survived at all.

HE WAS A HOUSEWRIGHT AND WAS ALWAYS SPOKEN OF BY TRADITION AS ‘MASTER CATLIN.’” ⚠ A CORRECTION OF NUANCE TO TUTTLE-44: vol. 2 said he and Jonathan were “consumed” with the burning buildings. Vol. 1 says they were KILLED WHILE DEFENDING THE HOUSE, and the house was then taken and burned. He died fighting, not trapped. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ AND THE CAPTURED SON, unnamed when vol. 2’s sentence broke at the page, IS JOHN CATLIN JUNIOR — carried to Canada at 1704, came home, and by about 1715 had rebuilt on his father’s ashes. A housewright: the son of a burned-out house became a builder of houses. ⭐ He also bought lot 33 in 1685 (from John Parsons) and lot 36 was his in 1704 — three home lots on Deerfield street. ⚠ The 1704 casualty table (image 324) lists “John Catlin, (?) 60” — an age of about sixty, matching a birth c.1643. ⚠⚠ The same table’s adjacent columns are badly mangled by OCR (names, ages and the phrase “burnt in the cellar” run together across two columns) — NOTHING from that table is attributed to this family beyond his own line until the page image is read. ——— Earlier note: ⚠⚠⚠ HIS FATE IS ESTABLISHED, AND IT IS AS BAD AS THE RECORD GETS — 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-44].

Outstanding: ⚠⚠⚠ HIS OWN FATE ON 29 FEBRUARY 1704 IS NOT ESTABLISHED HERE AND MUST NOT BE ASSUMED FROM THE RAID’S REPUTATION. Sheldon says the family was “nearly all destroyed” and names two daughters killed on the march — he does not, in these passages, say what became of the father. ⭐ READ SHELDON’S CATLIN GENEALOGY ENTRY FOR HIM DIRECTLY, and the 1704 casualty and captive lists, which are exhaustively studied. ⚠ Note a “John Catlin” appears in Deerfield office-holder lists for 1689–1704 and a later Capt. John Catlin 1721–58 — at least three men of the name; sort them before writing anything. ⭐ Graded Probable only because the link Sarah → this John rests on Sheldon’s single statement “Sarah, dau. John Catlin” and there were several.

Mary Baldwin (bap. 1644 – aft. 1704)

Ahnentafel #3083 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s mother’s mother (11 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

Mary Baldwin was baptized 23 June 1644, the daughter of Joseph Baldwin of Milford, Connecticut, and his first wife, Hannah. She married John Catlin on 23 September 1662, and the couple moved with him from Newark, New Jersey, to Deerfield, Massachusetts, about 1683. On 29 February 1704, in the raid that killed her husband and several of their children, Mary Baldwin herself survived; family tradition, recorded generations later by a descendant and printed by the historian of Deerfield, held that she had given water to a wounded French officer during the attack and was spared as a result, and that afterward, alone in the emptied house, she told a frightened boy in hiding to run rather than stay with her, since she was already a captive and he was not. That account was passed down as tradition rather than as a contemporary record, but it is the fullest picture that survives of how she came through that morning.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SHELDON’S OWN VERDICT ON HER, AND A CORRECTION THAT A FLAG CAUGHT — 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-49]. Printed page 312, read at the page image: “…the house, being the largest in the town, was reserved as a depot for captives. Here, then, was the place where MRS. CATLIN RELIEVED THE WOUNDED FRENCH LIEUTENANT, AND SECURED HER OWN FREEDOM BY HER PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY.” The historian, weighing a family tradition a century old, accepted it — and put the reason for her survival in five words. ⚠⚠ AND A CORRECTION THE FLAG EARNED. TUTTLE-47 recorded that the OCR of the casualty table ran two columns together, and that nothing from it would be attributed to this family until the page was read. The page is read: the “two years old MERCY” whose “brains [were] dashed out on the doorstone” is MERCY SHELDON, of Ensign Sheldon’s household — NOT a Catlin. Had that been written up from the OCR it would have put a murdered two-year-old into the wrong family and she would have stayed there. ⭐ The same page adds a Catlin in the other defended house: “probably Joseph Catlin with his wife and child” in Benoni Stebbins’s, which held out and drove the assailants back with loss. ⭐ And the building she stood in survived her by 145 years — the “Old Indian House,” standing until 1849; its scarred and battered door is in Memorial Hall. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THE LETTER READ AT THE PAGE, AND THE ENDING IS THE POINT — 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-48]. Sheldon vol. 1, printed page 310, the close of Lucy D. Shearer’s letter: “…Mrs. Catlin was left. After they were all gone, a little boy came that was hid in the house. Mrs. Catlin said to the boy, ‘go run and hide.’ The boy said, ‘Mrs. Catlin, why don’t you go and hide?’ She said, ‘I AM A CAPTIVE; IT IS NOT MY DUTY TO HIDE, BUT YOU HAVE NOT BEEN TAKEN, AND IT IS YOUR DUTY TO HIDE.’ Who this boy was I do not know. SOME THOUGHT THE KINDNESS SHOWN TO THE FRENCHMAN WAS THE REASON OF MRS. CATLIN’S BEING LEFT.” Alone in an emptied house with the column already gone, she held herself bound by a parole nobody was there to enforce — and sent the child away instead. ⭐ And the family’s own explanation of why she lived is in the last line: they thought the water she gave the dying officer was the reason she was left behind. ⚠ Still tradition, not record — Mrs. Shearer was born in 1804 — and “Mrs. Catlin” is unnamed; the narrator is the captured son, so his mother is the natural reading. ⭐⭐⭐ AND THE SCALE, from the facing paragraph: “When the night of February 28th closed down, 291 SOULS were under their rooftrees … from Widow Allison of eighty-four years, to John, the youngling of Deacon French’s flock, of four weeks. Among them were three negro slaves, one Indian, and three Frenchmen from Canada. In a few hours ALL BUT ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SIX of the inhabitants were either killed or in the hands of a cruel enemy, on a march over the snow to Canada, THREE HUNDRED MILES AWAY.” Of forty-one houses, fifteen stood inside the stockade. Alec has three families in that count. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THE SILENCE IS BROKEN, AND IT IS BROKEN BY HER OWN WORDS — 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-47]. Two turns ago this node recorded that no source read stated her fate and left the silence standing. Sheldon’s VOLUME ONE, images 325–326, states it — in a letter from a descendant, which Sheldon prints because he judged it “an apparently authentic tradition” that “should have a permanent record here”: “His father and uncle were killed in the house; he took his father’s gun, and his uncle’s powder horn, and was going to use them when the Indians took him. The captives were taken to a house … and a Frenchman was brought in and laid on the floor; he was in great distress, and called for water; MRS. CATLIN FED HIM WITH WATER. Some one said to her, ‘How can you do that for your enemy?’ She replied, ‘IF THINE ENEMY HUNGER, FEED HIM; IF HE THIRST, GIVE HIM WATER TO DRINK.’ The Frenchman was taken and carried away, and the captives marched off. MRS. CATLIN WAS LEFT. After they were all gone, a little boy came that was hid in the house. Mrs. Catlin said to the boy, ‘go run and hide.’” ⭐ Sheldon places the scene (image 328): the Sheldon house, “being the largest in the town, was reserved as a depot for captives. Here, then, was the place where Mrs. Catlin relieved the wounded French lieutenant.” On the morning her husband and one son burned in their own house and another son was carried off, she gave water to a dying enemy officer, answered the person who challenged her with Romans 12:20, and then told a hidden child to run. ⚠⚠ GRADE IT HONESTLY: this is a FAMILY TRADITION, written down by Mrs. Lucy D. Shearer of Colrain — born 1804, a hundred years after the event — and printed by Sheldon as tradition, not record. ⚠ And “Mrs. Catlin” is not named. The narrator is the captured son, so his mother is the natural reading and Sheldon reads it that way — but it could be a daughter-in-law, and the node says so rather than smoothing it. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐ A SISTER, PROBABLY — 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-46]. Sheldon vol. 1, image 61, has Sergt. John Hawks marrying MARTHA BALDWIN in 1667 — five years after Mary Baldwin married John Catlin. Two Baldwin women marrying into the same small frontier town within five years are almost certainly sisters, and Joseph Baldwin of Milford is the obvious father of both. ⚠⚠ AND IF SO, THE DEERFIELD KNOT TIGHTENS AGAIN: John Hawks’s SECOND wife was ALICE, widow of Samuel Allis (node 3077) — so Alec’s ancestor Mary Baldwin would be the sister of the first wife of the man who married another of Alec’s ancestors. Recorded as a lead. Two women of one surname in one town is a pattern, not a proof. ——— Earlier note: ⭐ UPGRADED Probable → Documented [TUTTLE-44] — her husband’s own entry in Sheldon’s CATLIN genealogy is now read and its child list names Sarah, so the chain Mary → Sarah → Joseph Mitchell → Tabitha runs inside one genealogy. ⚠⚠ HER OWN FATE ON 29 FEBRUARY 1704 IS STILL NOT STATED. Sheldon says “no family suffered more than his”, names her husband and son Jonathan as burned in the house, a son killed in the Meadow Fight, and a son and three daughters carried off — and does not say what became of the mother. That silence is left standing here rather than filled in. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-43]. Sheldon’s BALDWIN genealogy, image 319, gives her baptism and her marriage: “Mary, bap. June 23, 1644; m. Sept. 23, 1662, John Catlin, with whom she rem. fr. Newark to Dfd. abt. 1683.” ⭐ Her father is JOSEPH BALDWIN, emigrant — “prob. s. of Richard of Cholesbury, County Bucks, Eng.; of MILFORD, CT., 1639; rem. to Had[ley] 1662-3” — an English parish named for a New England ancestor, which is rare on this chart. ⚠⚠ AND A TANGLE WORTH SEEING BEFORE IT CONFUSES SOMEONE: Joseph Baldwin’s SECOND wife was “Isabella [Ward?], wid. of JOHN CATLIN of Newark, N.J.” — the elder John Catlin’s widow. So Mary Baldwin married the son of her own stepmother. The two families interlock twice in one generation.

Outstanding: ⚠ Graded Probable with her husband — the link to Sarah runs through him. ⭐ Sheldon has a full BALDWIN genealogy; the Cholesbury, Buckinghamshire claim for Joseph Baldwin is the kind of English origin that has to be tested, not adopted. ⚠ Her own fate in the 1704 raid is not stated in the passages read.

William Tuttle came from England to New England in 1635 and settled in New Haven in 1639, becoming the head of a large family whose descendants filled an entire published genealogy two centuries later. He died in 1673, and his estate, including lands in the Branford division, was still being divided among his children as late as 1705. His son Simon's own deeds, drawn up decades after William's death, repeatedly describe land as having belonged to "my father, Mr. William Tuttle," directly recording the connection between the generations in the family's own words.

That division is a document, and it will list them. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 6 Aug 2026 — GENERATION 14, the deepest node on the Tuttle side and the deepest in the whole chart [TUTTLE-30]. He is the head of the 1883 work, whose full title is The Descendants of William and Elizabeth Tuttle, who came from old to New England in 1635, and settled in New Haven in 1639.

Outstanding: ⚠⚠ ‘hyp’ ON PURPOSE, AND IT SHOULD STAY THAT WAY UNTIL A RECORD IS READ. Every step from node 192 down to node 3072 now rests on ONE book — and that book has been caught in this same session printing Aug. 23 for Aug. 22, printing a birth year that four of its own facts refute, and misprinting Clark Strong Tuttle’s county. We are not taking an immigrant ancestor on a book’s word. ⭐ WHAT WOULD EARN IT: the New Haven colony records and William Tuttle’s estate (he d. 1673) — a distribution naming Simon would tie generations 13 and 14 together from a record instead of from a numbering scheme. ⚠ His wife Elizabeth is deliberately not yet a node.

Elizabeth Tuttle (~1609 England – 1684 New Haven)

Ahnentafel #6145 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother (12 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established · Immigrant

Elizabeth Tuttle was born about 1609 in England and crossed to New England with her husband, William, in 1635, when she was about twenty-six. She outlived him by eleven years, dying in New Haven on 31 December 1684 at the age of seventy-six, and her gravestone survives in the city's Grove Street Cemetery, reading "Age 76: 31:10:1684 — Elisabeth Tutle." An epitaph once carved on the stone, since worn away but preserved in print, read, "The blest live as They are: the blest That live at Rest." Her children included Simon, from whom this family descends, along with John, Hannah, Thomas, Jonathan, Joseph, a second Elizabeth, Benjamin, and Mercy; her own parentage and English origins were never recorded, and a later claim connecting her to a Devon family was examined and withdrawn as unsupported.

Find a Grave memorial 8395040, six photographs. The inscription: “Age 76: 31:10:1684 — Elisabeth Tutle” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ READ THE DATE PROPERLY AND IT IS THE ONE WE PREDICTED. “31:10:1684” is OLD STYLE — day 31, MONTH 10, 1684 — and under the old calendar, which began the year in March, MONTH 10 IS DECEMBER. So the stone reads 31 December 1684 — and the 1883 book’s entry 9 says Simon Tuttle “probably continued in New Haven until after the death of his mother, Dec., 1684”. The stone and the book agree to the month, and the stone gives the day. ⭐ The book also preserves an epitaph since lost from the stone (Vol. I, p. LX): “The blest live as They are: the blest That live at Rest.” ⭐ “Age 76” puts her birth c.1608–09, so she was about 26 when the family crossed in 1635 and about 65 when William died in 1673; she outlived him by eleven years and her death is what scattered the New Haven household. ⭐⭐ HER CHILDREN ARE LINKED ON THE MEMORIAL AND OURS IS AMONG THEM: SIMON TUTTLE (node 3072) — with John 1631, Hannah 1633, Thomas 1634, Jonathan 1637, Joseph 1640, Elizabeth 1645, Benjamin 1648, Mercy 1650. ⚠ DATE CONFLICT LOGGED: the memorial gives Simon 1647–1716; the 1883 book gives his death as 16 April 1719, with his widow Abigail dying 11 Aug 1722. Not resolved here — the Wallingford probate will settle it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ AND A NOTE ON THE SOURCE ITSELF, WHICH IS UNUSUALLY GOOD. The memorial’s maintainer withdraws a claim in writing: that Elizabeth was daughter of Edward Mathews and Elizabeth Nashe of Devon came “from an unstated source that cannot be found”, the 1883 book gives no origin for her at all, and Devon is 180 miles from Ringstead, Northamptonshire, the Tuttle home parish. A compiled source that shows its working and retracts its own guess is worth more than one that simply asserts. Her parents are NOT entered. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 6 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-32]. She is named in the title of the standard authority itself — The Descendants of WILLIAM AND ELIZABETH TUTTLE, who came from old to New England in 1635, and settled in New Haven in 1639 — and the 1883 compiler built an 838-page book on the pair. ⭐ Her death is dated from the other side of the family: entry 9 says Simon “probably continued in New Haven until after the death of his mother, Dec., 1684” — so Elizabeth Tuttle died in December 1684, eleven years after her husband, and her death is what moved this branch of the family out to Wallingford.

Outstanding: ⛔ NO MAIDEN NAME HERE. The 1883 title page gives her only as Elizabeth. ⭐ ROUTES: the New Haven colony records; William Tuttle’s estate, d. 1673, and the division of the Branford lands “laid out for his children” on 14 Feb 1705, which Simon’s own deed cites — that division should list the whole family; and the 1635 crossing, which is where the emigration claim has to be tested.

Abraham Doolittle was in New Haven by 1644, where he served over the years as corporal, freeman, marshal, and townsman; the family name was written "Dowlittle" in the earliest records. He was one of the founding settlers of Wallingford, Connecticut, arriving on the ground by 1668 and serving as deputy in 1668 and 1672. He died 11 August 1690, and his will named his wife and ten children — seven sons and three daughters. His English origins were deliberately left unexplored; the American story of this family begins with him.

Evidence

Full dates: c.1620 – 11 Aug 1690, Wallingford, Conn.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ A MIGRANT REACHED, 7 August 2026 — and per Alec’s rule, this is where the Doolittle line stops.

At New Haven by 1644 (Savage 2:70), and in the New Haven town records right through 1649–1662 as corporal, freeman, marshal and townsman. A founder of Wallingford, removing there in 1670 — Davis: “Abraham Doolittle and John Peck were on the ground in 1668.” Deputy 1668 and 1672. Died 11 August 1690; his will names his wife, seven sons and three daughters. ⭐ Savage notes the family “early it was Dowlittle.”

⭐ New Haven Colony, and that is the point. Like every other New England family on this chart he is a Great Migration man of the 1630s–40s, not a Plymouth one — which is why no Mayflower line runs through here either.

⚠ Graded Probable: the link to his son John is Jacobus’s and Davis’s, not yet a record read here. ⛔ His English origin is deliberately not researched — the American tree comes first.

Outstanding: The link to his son John rests on Jacobus and Davis (compiled genealogies), not on a record read here; the 11 Aug 1690 will that “names his wife, seven sons and three daughters” is the document to read at the image before this moves to ok.

Joan (Alling/Allen) (bap. 1617 Kempston, Beds.)

Joan Alling was baptized 12 October 1617 in Kempston, Bedfordshire, the daughter of James Alling and sister of Sergeant Roger Alling, treasurer of New Haven Colony. She became the first wife of Abraham Doolittle, and their children included John Doolittle, born 14 June 1655, along with Elizabeth, born 1652, and Sarah. No marriage record for Joan and Abraham survives, and while the general fact that John descended from Abraham's first wife rather than a later one rests on several independent accounts, her specific identification as this Kempston-born Joan comes from a single genealogical authority.

Evidence

⭐⭐⭐ UPGRADED hyp → PROBABLE, 7 August 2026 — after an adversarial refutation pass, verdict CONFIRMED [TUTTLE-55]. The competing “Abigail Moss” attribution is rejected as John’s mother on an impossibility: Davis’s own head-entry gives Abigail Moss d. 5 Nov 1710 ae. 69 → b. c.1641 → she was ~14 when John was born (1655) — and the same Davis entry explicitly lists John under the FIRST marriage (“Children by 1st marriage: … 4 John, b June 14, 1655”), so the old “Davis conflict” was Davis contradicting himself. Savage 2:70 concurs on the structure (“these, it is said, were by first w.”). Jacobus supplies the first wife’s name on the children flanking John — “Elizabeth da. Abraham & Joan (Ailing) Doolittle, b 12 Apr 1652”; “Sarah da. Abraham & Joan (Ailing) Doolittle” — and his Alling entry: “3 Joan, bp 12 Oct 1617; m Abraham Doolittle of NH”, daughter of James Alling of Kempston, sister of Sgt. Roger Alling, Treasurer of New Haven Colony.

⚠ Why the ceiling is Probable: the maternity STRUCTURE (first wife, not Moss) is multiply documented, but the identification of that wife as the Kempston Joan rests on Jacobus alone — no marriage record for Abraham × Joan survives anywhere.

Outstanding: New Haven births/baptisms for the Doolittle children of the 1650s would document the maternity from a record. ⛔ The Alling side is English — per the stop-at-the-migrant rule it is deliberately left unpursued.

John Peck (~1638 – 1724 Wallingford Conn.)

Ahnentafel #6150 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s father (12 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

John Peck was born about 1638, the son of William Peck, and became a freeman in 1669. On 3 November 1664 he married Mary Moss, daughter of John Moss, and the couple settled in Wallingford, Connecticut, where Mary died on 16 November 1725. John Peck himself died in Wallingford in 1724.

Evidence

⭐ UPGRADED to DOCUMENTED, 8 Aug 2026, adversary-confirmed [TUTTLE-70/-VERDICT]: three converging authorities, the earliest explicit and independent — Savage (1860–62), p.391: “JOHN, New Haven, s. of William of the same, freem. 1669, m. 3 Nov. 1664, Mary, d. of John Moss… b. at Wallingford, where his w. d. 16 Nov. 1725”; Jacobus (records-first, independent); Darius Peck 1877 (“2. JOHN… b. New Haven, probably in 1638… d. at Wallingford in 1724”). The old “Henry Peck” rival is dead twice over: Jacobus’s nesting [TUTTLE-50] and Savage’s own same-name sweep (Henry’s John “d. young”; Ralph’s b. 1655, too late).

Outstanding: Dea. William Peck’s 9 Mar 1689 will (★2 browser) remains wanted as the record-side seal — it names son John.

Outstanding: her father John Moss (d. 1707 “aged 103, perhaps with slight exagg.” — Savage) is an un-opened Gen-14 name if the line is ever extended.

William Allis became a freeman at Braintree, Massachusetts, in 1640 and removed to Hatfield about 1661. During King Philip's War he commanded the garrison at Hatfield, thirty-six men strong — the largest force in the valley after Springfield's — and oversaw soldiers cutting timber for the fortifications at Hatfield and Deerfield. He married first, in 1641, a woman named Mary, who died 10 August 1677; their son Samuel, born 24 February 1647, carried the family line forward, while another son, William, was killed in the Falls Fight at Turners Falls on 19 May 1676. Lieutenant Allis remarried on 25 June 1678, to Mary, daughter of John Bronson and widow of John Graves of Haddam, but died only ten weeks later, in September 1678.

Jan. 25, 1690.” Boltwood’s child list gives Samuel’s birth as 24 February 1647 — the exact date the 1919 book gives. Two independent authorities on the parent-child link, so the generation stands. ⚠⚠ THE 1630 “WINTHROP’S FLEET” CLAIM IS STILL REFUSED — it is the 1919 book alone, and that book has been caught inventing a martyrdom. Boltwood starts him as a Braintree freeman in 1640 and says nothing about a crossing. ⭐⭐ NEW, AND WORTH A LINE OF ITS OWN: a second son William, b. 10 Jan 1656, was killed in the FALLS FIGHT at Turners Falls on 19 May 1676 — Samuel’s brother. This family lost a son to King Philip’s War in 1676 and a daughter-in-law and grandson to the Deerfield raid in 1704. ——— Earlier note: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ NEW NODE, 6 Aug 2026 — GENERATION 13, the deepest this project has ever reached. “1. WILLIAM ALLIS was born between 1613 and 1616, probably in ESSEX or LONDON, England … and came to this country with WINTHROP’S FLEET in 1630.” Braintree 1632–1658, then Wethersfield, Connecticut, then Hadley and Hatfield. Lieutenant. Married Mary in 1641; after her death married, 25 June 1678, Mary daughter of John Bronson; died 6 September 1678 [TUTTLE-18].

⛔ 11 Sep 2026 — DEMOTED documented → probable [BELL-714]. The badge now matches this node’s OWN text, which reads “‘hyp’ ON PURPOSE. A single published genealogy, unverified against any record.” ⭐ Graded probable rather than hypothesis because Boltwood independently confirms the man, his death date and the Braintree→Hatfield move; it is the 1630 crossing and the origin that rest on the 1919 book alone. Outstanding: ⚠⚠ ‘hyp’ ON PURPOSE. A single published genealogy, unverified against any record. ⚠ Our line runs through the FIRST wife, since Samuel was born 1647. ⚠⚠ BOLTWOOD DOES NOT SAY “WINTHROP’S FLEET” [TUTTLE-19]. He gives only “freeman May 13, 1640, Braintree, rem. abt. 1661 to Hat[field], and d. Sept. 6, 1678” — which confirms the death date and the Braintree→Hatfield move but leaves the 1630 crossing and the “Essex or London” origin as the 1919 book’s claims ALONE. Given that the same book’s Hatfield-massacre claim has just been refuted, do not repeat the Winthrop’s-fleet story as fact.

Mary (m. 1641 – d. 1677)

Ahnentafel #6153 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s father’s mother (12 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

Mary married William Allis in 1641 and bore him several children, among them Samuel, born 1647, from whom this family descends, and a son William, later killed in the Falls Fight of 1676. She died 10 August 1677. Her own surname was never recorded — the primary Braintree town register names her only as "Mary his wife" across her children's births, and no marriage entry survives. An old family story that she was killed in a massacre turned out, on closer reading, to belong instead to her daughter-in-law Alice, who died in the Deerfield raid of 1704, a full generation later.

Evidence

Also recorded: first wife of Lt. William Allis; m. 1641 – d. 10 August 1677

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ RE-GRADED ‘part’ → ‘ok’, 6 Aug 2026, AT ALEC’S CHALLENGE [AUDIT-01]. The colour grades WHO THIS PERSON IS AND WHOSE CHILD THEY ARE — not whether every fact about them is known.

TUTTLE-18 recorded, from the 1919 Allis genealogy, that she was “killed in the Hatfield massacre on 19 September 1677” — and flagged it as the kind of detail a family genealogy embroiders. It is WRONG and is WITHDRAWN. Boltwood: “m. (1) MARY, WHO D. AUG. 10, 1677.” She died on 10 August 1677 — five and a half weeks BEFORE the raid. She was already dead. Cause unknown.

Outstanding: ⭐ Her surname is now a CLOSED bounded negative, 7 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-54]: five sources — the 1919 book’s printed blank, Boltwood, Sheldon, Judd, and the primary Braintree register (Bates 1886), which names her only ever as “Mary his wife” across her children’s births and carries no marriage — the name does not survive. ⭐ The violent death the 1919 book was reaching for is real, but it is her daughter-in-law ALICE, killed at Deerfield in 1704 — the wrong generation, town, decade and war. ⚠ Treat every other unverified claim in that book with the same suspicion.

William Davis (~1617 – 1683 Roxbury Mass.)

Ahnentafel #6156 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s father’s father (12 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

William Davis lived in Roxbury, Massachusetts, where a 1649 church record names his sons John, Samuel, and Joseph among the children of "William Davis whose wife was admitted" to the congregation. His son Samuel was later dismissed from the Roxbury church to Northampton. William Davis had two wives — Elizabeth, and later Alice Thorp, who died in childbirth — and was, according to one genealogist, probably a brother of a man named Tobias. He died 9 December 1683, at about the age of sixty-six.

Evidence

Full dates: c.1617 – 9 Dec 1683 (æ66), Roxbury, Mass.

⭐ ADDED at PROBABLE, 10 Aug 2026, adversary-confirmed — and the verdict pass recovered the primary record [TUTTLE-73/-VERDICT]: the 1649 Roxbury church admission (printed p.118, read at the image): “John Davis, Samuel Davis, Joseph Davis — Children of William Davis whose wife was admitted…” — naming Samuel as his son in a contemporary document; plus “Samuel Davis dismissed to North-Hampton” (p.91, ~1673). Savage’s William entry concurs (son “Samuel, 21 Feb. 1645”; wives Elizabeth then Alice Thorp; “prob. br. of Tobias”); Savage’s Samuel entry still hedges “perhaps” — with the infant-to-adult bridge resting on elimination, Probable is the honest grade. His second wife’s death: “Alice wife of William Davis who dyed in child birth undelivered” (p.193).

Outstanding: Samuel’s 1690 Hampshire probate (would close the bridge); the 1668-vs-1673 removal/dismissal lag; William’s own 6 Dec 1683 will (mentioned by Savage, unread).

Elizabeth Davis (fl. 1647 – d. 1658 Roxbury Mass.)

Ahnentafel #6157 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s father’s mother (12 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

Elizabeth was William Davis's first wife, admitted to the Roxbury church between 1647 and early 1649, shortly before a church ordinance recorded that her husband's children had been brought into the congregation through her admission. She is understood, by the timing of that record, to have been the mother of Samuel Davis, though the ordinance itself does not name her directly. She died, or was buried, on 4 May 1658.

Evidence

⭐ ADDED at PROBABLE, 10 Aug 2026, adversary-confirmed [TUTTLE-73/77]. William Davis’s first wife and — by a tight cross-page inference — Samuel’s mother: her own church admission (printed p.86, bracketed 1647–early 1649) precedes the Oct 1649 ordinance (“Children of William Davis whose wife was admitted & so brought her children…”); Savage: “His w. Eliz. d. or was bur. 4 May 1658”; Alice Thorp only from 1658/1663. The ordinance never NAMES her — hence Probable.

Outstanding: the Roxbury BIRTHS register (mother named on the 1643/1645/1649 entries = the path to ok).

John Catlin (d. 1644 Wethersfield Conn.)

Ahnentafel #6164 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s mother’s father’s father (12 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

The first husband of Isabel, and father of John Catlin who later settled at Deerfield, was a man of Wethersfield, Connecticut, whose estate was appraised at £69 on 17 July 1644. His given name is not settled: one genealogist records it as John, while another states plainly that the baptismal name of Isabel's first husband is unknown. The uncertainty concerns his identity, not his place in the family — he remains Isabel's husband and the elder generation behind John Catlin of Deerfield regardless of what he was called.

Evidence

Also recorded: of Wethersfield; estate appraised 17 July 1644; his given name is unsettled

ADDED at PROBABLE, 10 Aug 2026, adversary-confirmed [TUTTLE-78/-VERDICT]. Isabel’s first husband and John-of-Deerfield’s father. Sheldon’s entry 1 names him “John” with the 1644 estate appraisal; Savage twice disclaims the given name (“The bapt. name of her first h. is unkn.”) — a genuine identification conflict = Probable by definition.

Outstanding: the Wethersfield 1644 estate record itself (would settle the name); Savage-vs-Sheldon adjudication.

Isabel Catlin (d. 1676 Hadley Mass.)

Ahnentafel #6165 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s mother’s father’s mother (12 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict

Isabel married three times. Her first husband, a Catlin of Wethersfield, died by 1644, leaving her with a son, John, who later settled at Deerfield; she then married James Northam, who died in either 1660 or 1662, the sources disagreeing; and she married a third time, to Joseph Baldwin of Milford and Hadley. She was probably the sister of Lawrence Ward, of New Haven, Branford, and Newark. She died 8 December 1676 at Hadley. In a striking turn, her son John Catlin later married Mary Baldwin, the daughter of Isabel's own third husband — so the two families were connected in two directions within a single generation.

Evidence

Full dates: m.(2) James Northam; m.(3) Joseph Baldwin; d. 8 Dec 1676, Hadley

⭐ ADDED at PROBABLE, 10 Aug 2026 (ok refused on shared-source evidence) [TUTTLE-78/-VERDICT]. The thrice-married matriarch: Savage independently states her as John-of-Deerfield’s mother; Sheldon and the 1881 Baldwin Genealogy agree on her chain to the day AND word — likely one source absorbed. “Prob. sister of Lawrence Ward of New Haven, Branford… and Newark” (Sheldon) — the Newark thread is her BROTHER’s, untangling the old anachronism. Her son married her third husband’s daughter — the families interlock twice.

Outstanding: the Northam death-date conflict (1660/1662); Hampshire probate for the independent-date test (path back to ok).

Joseph Baldwin (Milford 1639 – d. 1684 Hadley)

Ahnentafel #6166 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s father’s mother’s mother’s father (12 generations back) · Probable — the IDENTIFICATION or the LINK rests on one source, or is in conflict · Immigrant

Joseph Baldwin was among the first settlers of Milford, Connecticut, in 1639, and later removed to Hadley, Massachusetts, about 1663, becoming a freeman there in 1666. He married three times — first Hannah, then Isabel, and finally Elizabeth (Hitchcock) Warriner. He died 2 November 1684; his will was drawn 20 December 1680 and proved at Northampton. As the immigrant generation of this family, his English background — a case has been made connecting him to a Cholesbury, Buckinghamshire family — was noted but deliberately not pursued; the family's American story begins with him.

Evidence

Also recorded: Milford, Conn. 1639 → Hadley c.1663; d. 2 Nov 1684; will 20 Dec 1680, proved Northampton

ADDED at PROBABLE, 10 Aug 2026 (ok refused — the two compilations are one source-lineage on these details) [TUTTLE-78/-VERDICT]. First settler of Milford; freeman at Hadley 1666; three wives (Hannah; Isabel; Elizabeth (Hitchcock) Warriner). THE IMMIGRANT — the English case (Richard of Cholesbury’s 1633 will naming the three brothers) noted, not chased.

Outstanding: his 1684 Hampshire probate file (the path back to ok for him AND Isabel).

Hannah Baldwin (fl. 1644 Milford Conn.)

Hannah was the first wife of Joseph Baldwin of Milford, Connecticut. She joined the Milford church on 23 June 1644, the same day their first four children were baptized — among them Mary, whose own baptism is dated to that day. Little else of her own life survives; her name comes from a single source, and no record of her death has been found.

Evidence

Also recorded: joined the Milford church 23 June 1644, the day her first four children were baptized

ADDED at PROBABLE, 10 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-78/-VERDICT]. Joseph’s first wife and Mary Baldwin’s mother: “Joseph’s wife Hannah joined the Church June 23, 1644, and their first four children were then baptized” — Mary’s charted baptism is that very day. Single source for her name.

Outstanding: her death (before Joseph’s ~1660s remarriage); her own family.

Deacon William Peck (1601 London – 1694 Lyme Conn.)

William Peck was born in London in 1601 and worked there as a merchant before emigrating with his wife, Elizabeth, and son Jeremiah, probably on the ship Hector, in the company of Governors Eaton and Hopkins and the Reverend John Davenport. He was one of the signers of the founding compact for New Haven Colony in June 1639, and served as a deacon there from 1659 until his death. He married a second time, to Sarah, widow of William Holt, though his will named only the children of his first marriage. William Peck died at Lyme, Connecticut, at the home of his son Joseph, in October 1694 — the exact day recorded variously as the 4th or the 14th — and his gravestone was still to be seen there generations later.

Evidence

Full dates: b. 1601 London – d. 4 (or 14) Oct 1694 at Lyme, at his son Joseph’s house

⭐⭐ UPGRADED to DOCUMENTED, 10 Aug 2026, micro-adversary [TUTTLE-75]: the old ‘part’ rationale (Henry-vs-William) died on 8 Aug [TUTTLE-50/70]; three non-derivative authorities now carry both the man and the John-link. Savage p.394, recovered verbatim: “a merch. from London, b. 1601, with w. Eliz. and s. Jeremiah, came prob. in the Hector, as compan. with Govs. Eaton and Hopkins, Rev. John Davenport… one of the first compact for N.H. in June 1639… deac. from 1659 to his d.… In his will, of 9 Mar. 1689… the sec. w. and his four ch. are ment. but no more.” Second wife: Sarah, widow of William Holt (m. after 1683; the four children all Elizabeth’s). His gravestone “still to be seen” in Savage’s day.

Outstanding: death date 4 vs 14 Oct 1694 (compiler variance); age 83 (Lyme) / 90 (New Haven, reputed) / 93 (computed); the will IMAGE — New Haven Probate Book II p.176 (★2) — the record-side seal.

Elizabeth Peck (England 1637 – d. 1683)

Ahnentafel #12301 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s father’s mother (13 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

Elizabeth emigrated from England to New England in 1637, probably aboard the ship Hector, together with her husband, William Peck, and their son Jeremiah. Her children, including a son John, were later named in her husband's will as the children of his first marriage. She died 5 December 1683 while visiting her son at Lyme, Connecticut. Her own maiden name was never recorded by any source consulted.

Evidence

Also recorded: emigrated on the Hector, 1637 – d. 5 Dec 1683, visiting her son at Lyme

⭐⭐ ADDED at DOCUMENTED, 10 Aug 2026, adversary-confirmed [TUTTLE-74/-VERDICT]: two independent authorities agreeing TO THE DAY with non-overlapping detail — Darius Peck 1877 (“His wife, Elizabeth, died December 5, 1683… His children were all by his first wife” — the four incl. our John, named in the will) and Savage (“with w. Eliz. and s. Jeremiah, came prob. in the Hector… d. 5 Dec. 1683, on a visit to her s. at Lyme”). Savage’s will-paraphrase shows record access, not folklore. No prior-English-wife hint anywhere.

Outstanding: her maiden name (no source ventures one); the will image (★2) as the family’s record-side seal.

John Moss (New Haven 1639 – 1707 Wallingford)

Ahnentafel #12302 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s mother’s father (13 generations back) · Documented — person and parent-link established

John Moss was in New Haven by 1639 and later moved to Wallingford, Connecticut, by 1670. He and his wife had eleven children baptized between 1640 and 1655, among them Mary, baptized 11 April 1647, who married John Peck in 1664. One later compiler called him "the ancestor of all who bear the name in these parts." He was said to have died in 1707 at the remarkable age of 103, a figure that traces back to a sermon preached decades later and that should be treated with some skepticism rather than taken as fact.

Evidence

Also recorded: New Haven 1639; Wallingford 1670; d. 1707 “aged 103, perhaps with slight exagg.”

⭐⭐ ADDED at DOCUMENTED, 10 Aug 2026, adversary-confirmed [TUTTLE-74/-VERDICT]: Savage’s full entry (eleven children incl. “Mary, 11 Apr. 1647… Mary m. 3 Nov. 1664, John Peck”) + Jacobus matching the baptism to the day + Davis (“the ancestor of all who bear the name in these parts”). The Sr./Jr. hazard is arithmetically dead: Mary (b. 1647) predates John Jr. (b. 1650). ⚠ The “aged 103” figure roots in Dana’s 1770 centennial sermon (Savage’s own citation) — carry with Savage’s raised eyebrow, not as fact.

Outstanding: his wife (node 12303); the deed method for her name.

John Moss's wife

Ahnentafel #12303 · his mother’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s father’s mother’s mother’s mother’s mother (13 generations back) · Known unknown — the person existed; the name does not survive

The wife of John Moss of New Haven and Wallingford is known only through the eleven children she and her husband had baptized between 1640 and 1655, among them Mary, who married John Peck. Neither of the genealogical authorities consulted for this family named her, and no record has yet supplied her identity — her name simply does not survive.

Evidence

Also recorded: name not recorded

KNOWN UNKNOWN, 10 Aug 2026 [TUTTLE-74/-VERDICT]. Eleven baptized children 1640–1655 prove her; Savage’s and Davis’s full entries name no wife — an informative silence, read whole. Recovery path: a New Haven/Wallingford conveyance with the “for love and affection to my wife ———” formula.
