Person:Amy Case (4)

'The name of the widow Amy is discovered on evidence found in the preceding deeds. She was Amy, born 1703, daughter of Capt. Richard Case of Simsbury (North Parish, now Granby), and Amy his wife, who was daughter of Dr. Philip Reed of Concord, Mass. She married first, Dec. 4, 1729, Jonathan Holcomb, Jr., of Simsbury, born Nov. 25, 1701, ... Jonathan died June 30, 1737, and Amy afterwards married Joshua Bordman, ...'

'The widow Amy survived her husband more than thirty years, dying about 1792, when she must have been 89 years old. Administration on her estate was granted May 1, 1792, ...'

'Joshua Bordman ([son of] Daniel...), of Sheffield, Mass., born in Wethersfield Nov. 18, 1702; married Feb. 14, 1724-5, Sarah Stockwell. ... [The marriage and birth of their first child Elizabeth in 1725 are] all that is known of Joshua's family, except as it appears in his will, for the records of Sheffield, both church and town, are almost entirely wanting for that period. Sarah Stockwell is supposed to have been the mother of either four or five of the eight children of whom mention is found, while another wife, Amy, was mother of the remainder.'
