This book is excerpted from Dr. Stiles's two-volume history of one of Connecticut's original three river towns. Many of the hundreds of genealogies found in Clearfield's reprint carry the pioneering families of Wethersfield forward over many generations from the time of the town's founding in the seventeenth century and are replete with biographical details on numerous descendants. What follows is a partial list of the main families covered in the volume from among the more than 12,000 persons referred to in the index: Adams, Allen, Andres, Andrus, Ayrault, Baker, Baldwin, Barber, Barnard, Barnes, Beach, Beadle, Beckley, Beebe, Belden, Benton, Bidwell, Bigelow, Blinn, Boardman, Boosey, Booth, Bradley, Brewer, Bronson, Brooks, Brown, Buck, Bulkeley, Bull, Bunce, Burnham, Burr, Butler, Callender, Camp, Carpenter, Carter, Case, Chapin, Chapman, Chester, Church, Churchell, Churchill, Clark, Cole, Coleman, Collins, Colt, Cook, Cooke, Cowles, Crane, Crocker, Culver, Curtis, Davis, Deming, Dennison, Dickinson, Dimock, Dix, Dudley, Dunham, Edwards, Ely, Flint, Flowers, Foote, Fosdick, Fox, Francis, Frary, French, Fuller, Gardner, Gates, Gaylor, Gibbs, Gilbert, Gillett, Goff, Goodrich, Goodwin, Grant, Graves, Green(e), Gridley, Grimes, Griswold, Hale, Hall, Hanmer, Harris, Hart, Hatch, Havens, Hawley, Hill, Hills, Holcomb, Hollister, Holmes, Hooker, Hopkins, House, Howard, Howe, Hubbard, Hun(n), Hunt, Hurlbut, Ingraham, Johnson, Jones, Judd, Keene, Kellogg, Kelsey, Kilbourn, Kilby, Kimberly, King, Kirby, Kirkham, Landers, Larned, Latimer, Lawrence, Lee, Lewis, Lindsey, Lockwood, Loomis, Lord, Loveland, Lusk, Lyman, Marsh, Mason, May, Meakins, Merriam, Merrills, Miller, Mills, Miner, Mitchell, Mix, Montague, Moore, Morgan, Morley, Morris, Morse, Moseley, Newton, Nichols, Noble, North, Nott, Ogden, Olmstead, Palmer, Parke, Parker, Parsons, Peck, Pelton, Perkins, Phelps, Phillips, Pierce, Pierson, Pitkin, Porter, Potter, Pratt, Price, Reed, Reynolds, Rhodes, Rice, Rich, Richards, Richardson, Riley, Robbins, Roberts, Robertson, Rockwell, Root, Rose, Russell, Sage, Sanders, Sanford, Savage, Scott, Scovel, Seymour, Shepard, Sherman, Smith, Spencer, Standish, Stephens, Stillman, Stoddard, Strickland, Strong, Talcott, Taylor, Thompson, Tilden, Trac(e)y, Treat, Tryon, Turner, Tuttle, Walker, Ward, Warner, Warren, Watson, Webb, Webster, Weede, Well(e)s, Whaples, Wheeler, White, Whiting, Whitmore, Whitney, Whittlesey, Wickham, Wilcox, Willard, Williams, Wilson, Wolcot, Wood, Woodhouse, Woodruff, and Wright.
