(FFS & others) (Compiler's Note: Nathaniel Bacon's birthplace of "Stretton, Rutland, England" commonly seen in print for many years began with a genealogical error by Nathaniel Almoran Bacon in his 1845 genealogy of Jabez Bacon of Woodbury, Conn. The error was later widely circulated in Royal Hinman's 1852 edition of his Catalog of the Names of the First Puritan Settlers of the Colony of Connecticut, pg. 99, and in later compilations by other editors. For a century the misjudgment has been addressed by notable genealogists, including Donald Lines Jacobus and F.F. Starr, yet the error continues to multiply on the Internet.
