you may not be the correct person to contact, but you know who the correct
person is. some comments on the information supplied with "the knoll" page:
1- thomas baldwin's death - the lathrop baldwin (thomas' nephew) bible
lists his death as 14 jan 1810 as do a few other references. since his
will is dated 11 jan 1810, the 14th seems more probable than the 10th.
the will was written at his farm in athens, luzerne county, pa (now ridgebury,
bradford county) so he probably died there, not in chemung as many
references state. somewhere he makes the statement that he preferred the
pennsylvania location to his farm in chemung (lowman). real estate transfer
information after his death indicate that his farm was about a mile south
of wellsburg on the berwick turnpike. his son george had a farm for many
years about a mile south of wellsburg also, but it may not have been the
same farm.
2- waterman baldwin was a member of spalding's company, CT militia (not
PA), as was his brother thomas, for portions of the war. stories about
waterman indicate that he had much trouble with the pennsylvanians, as
did most connecticut settlers. this was, of courses, a major cause of their
migration to chemung (pennamite wars, etc).
i realise that these comments are not particularly significant, but---
