Person talk:Oliver Stoughton (3)

Stiles gives two men of this name on page 2:730. One is the son of William and Elizabeth (Strickland) Stoughton and one is the son of Nathaniel and Martha (Ellsworth) Stoughton, both with the date of birth of 19 May 1727. Windsor vital Records records the birth of only one, Oliver, born in Windsor on that date, son of William. Oliver, son of Nathaniel, is nowhere seen in any published Connecticut Vital Records. The 1727 date given by Stiles for his birth is two years prior to the date given by Stiles (not recorded in Connecticut VR) for the marriage of Nathaniel Stoughton and Martha Ellsworth. Oliver, son of William is mentioned in Manwaring's abstract of William's probate. Stiles indicates that Nathaniel's 1753 will is in the East Windsor probate records, which I don't have access to. It seems that there was only one Oliver, son of William.--jaques1724 19:30, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
