Thank you for your information, however I do not see any connection to your Deforests to mine.(Sorry)Your times and locations also are way off from my dates and locations. My Sarah was born 1770, and was a widow of William Deforest by 1800. She then shortly thereafter married Thomas Sargent(my gggg grandfather and they had 5 children( James(my ggg)b. abt 1801, John b, 1802, Lewis b. 1807, Elizabeth(Betsy) b. 1812
and Lucy b. abt 1813.
According to my Records their son William died by age 33 unmarried.

I am thinking my William was the son of Nehemiah Deforest of Stratford, Fairfield Co CT and his wife Mary Lockwood. They had a son William who married a Sarah Unknown about the time I am looking for a William Deforest and Sarah marriage. Many of Nehemiah's children went to NY and Otsego Co., NY and lived very near my Sargents.
I think I am on the right track, but still can't make the exact connection yet.
Thanks for your help though.
Penny
