    Calvin Son of Lemuel & Lydia Holton born April 29th 1787.

  2. ↑ There are two Calvin Holtons, cousins, one b. 1787 in Northfield, on b. 1797 in Gill. The marriage to Patty Smith clearly belongs to the Northfield man, the marriage record calling him of Northfield, and the other man being but 9 at the time of the marriage.

    Source:Temple, Josiah Howard. History of the Town of Northfield, Massachusetts, for 150 Years, p. 482, doesn't give a marriage to either one, but says of the Northfield man that he was "of Barre, Vt., 1808; of Randolph, Vt., 1819". This is based on two deeds selling land to Luther Holton, but reading the recorded deeds suggests the two sellers aren't the same man.

    The 1808 deed (Franklin deed Vol. 45, p. 306) by Calvin Holton of Barre Vermont sells all right to real estate of my Hon'd Father Lemuel Holton late of Northfield and the dower of my hon/d mother Lydia Holton now Lydia Phillips. No wife signs the deed. This is unmistakably the Northfield Calvin Holton.

    The 1819 deed (Franklin deed Vol. 45, p. 306) by Calvin Holton of Randolf Vermont sells land in Gill the descended to Nathan Holton by the will of William Holton late of Northfield. No wife signs the deed. This appears to be the Gill Calvin Holton. (As the deed is recorded on a form, it excerpts the critical passages mentioning "Nathan Holton above mentioned" preceded by no earlier mention of Nathan Holton. The whole deed would probably identify Nathan Holton as the father of the grantor but that part was not recorded.)
