Notes for John Slawson:
John moved to Bedford, Westchester County, New York in 1681, being influenced to do so by his brother, Eliezer.John did not like Bedford, and very shortly returned to Stamford, making the error of selling his land in Bedford without obtaining the necessary consent of the town itself.The land was promptly confiscated by the town, and it was only through his brother's influence that the matter was straightened out and new land assigned to John.This new land was then sold with the town's consent, and by 1682, he was again a resident of Stamford.He married a third time to Hannah Prunderson, widow of John Gibbs.

where were, 1669, propound for freem. he with s. Eleazer and John. He had a d.
wh. m. John Gould, and these three ch seem to be all he had when his will was
made.He d. 17 Feb 1695.John, Stamford, son of Eleazer m. 12 Nov 1663, Sarah,

Notes for Mary Chapman:
[Slosson 11-20-00 Greene.FTW]
Some genealogists refer to her as Mary Lawerence.This is not correct, as she
was only a step-relative to the Lawrence family, although brought up in the
household aafter her mother married into it as a second marriage.
Notes for Susanna Belding:
[Slosson 11-20-00 Greene.FTW]
No actual marriage records seem to exist, although there is no questions that
her given name was Susanna, there has never previiously been an effort to
establish her maiden name as Belding.With direct proof lacking, this
conclusion has beeen reached by certain other corroborating data, which is
explained more fully under the note for her son, Nathaniel. It would appear from
the evidence available that she came to Bedford as a married woman, and that she
was a widow at the time of her marriage to Eleazer Slason.No record has been
found covering any previous marriage, and the compiler, although morally
convinced the statement is correct, does not submit it as a fact.William and
Thomasine Belding were among the early and prominent settlers of Deerfield, MA,
although the town was not settled until after Susanna Belding was born.There
is also no doubt that the Belding family of Deerfield and the Belden family of
Norwalk were one and the same family.The Deerfield records usually used the
Belding spelling, and these records make frequentreferences to the individuals
of the family who moved to Norwalk.The Norwalk records rarely spell the name
other than Belden, although the Belding spelling is known.Whenever the name
enters the records of Stamford there seems to be an unsettled quality to the
matter, and both spellings are used on occaision, apparently indiscriminately.
The Deerfield records show Susanna's birth date and connection to the family,
and trace the relationships mentioned in the note for son, Nathaniel.
