(A281) REYNOLDS/HARTWELL -Dr. Asaph
Clark, son of Samuel Clark & Sarah Cushman, m. 15 Sept. 1815 Chloe Reynolds,
b. at North East, Dutchess Co., N.Y., 9 Mar. 1785; d. at Troy, Rensselaer Co.,
N.Y., 10 Nov. 1833. The will of Chloe indicates that she was survived by her
mother. The first ch. of Asaph & Chloe was named James Cushman Clark
(1814-1864), the James being entirely “intrusive” in terms of the Clark and
Cushman families. This James Cushman Clark m. at Lansingburgh, Rensselaer Co.,
N.Y., 30 Dec. 1839 Sarah A.M. Betts. Their second ch. (b. 1843, d. 1844) was
named Emma Hartwell Clark. These names, places, and dates make it highly
probable that Chloe Reynolds was the dau. of James Reynolds and Sally Hartwell,
and the sister of Jonathan and Samuel Reynolds, subjects of the inquiry.
Information is available on the descendants of Chloe Reynolds.

(A310) BUCKLIN/BUCKLAND - Hattie B. Cooper published a pamphlet in
1944 entitled Squire Bucklin of Foster, R. I., His Ancestors and
His Descendants, available at NEHGS. She traces R. I. Bucklins to William
Buckland of Hingham, Mass., via Joseph2 Buckland. My line goes back
to William1 via Joseph’s brother William2. However, my
data is weak on William2. Need birth and death dates and wife’s
name. His children were William3 and Charles3.

(A460) - Corydon C. Wilson was born at Torringford, Conn. (VR), 5 July 1853,
youngest of the three children of Darius and Clarissa (Treadway) Wilson. He
married at Altona, Knox Co., Ill., Mary A. Preston, b. in N.J., dau. of Thompson
Preston. She died in 1874. They had four children, surname Wilson, probably
all born at Altona: Frank, Arthur, Cora, and Charles. This information is from
Biographical and Historical Memoirs, Adams, Clay, Hall and Hamilton Counties,
Nebraska (1890), p. 336. I am working on a genealogy of this particular
Wilson family and would appreciate any info on Mary A. Preston, her mother or
these Wilson children.

(A464) ROBBINS/FLETCHER --Robert Robbins, Sr., & w. Mary
(Maxwell?) Robbins, were in Concord, Mass., ca. 1671. (See Torrey, New
England Marriages Prior to 1700.) At present, there is no proof of their
place of origin parentage, or Mary’s maiden name. It is suggested that
“according to tradition” her name was Mary Maxwell (Shattuck, History of
Concord [1835], p. 383). Robert Robbins, Sr., is credited under Capt. John
Cutler in 1676 and in a company of soldiers at Hassammesit, now Grafton, Mass.
(Bodge, Soldiers in King Philip’s War, third edition [reprint, 1967]),
Robert & Mary Robbins, Sr., were the par. of five ch. (Concord V.R., pp. 15,
18, 22, 24), incl. Robert, Jr., b. 12. Apr, 1675. Robert Robbins, Jr.,
(1675-1749) m. (1) at Chelmsford, Mass., 27 Mar, 1697 Mary (Dill), said to be
the dau. of Peter & Thankful (Shepard) Dill (Chelmsford VR., p. 217; Groton
V.R., p. 145). Ch. incl. Elizabeth Robbins, b. 9 Oct. 1704, m. before 1726
Eleazer Fletcher (see the Fletcher genealogy). For some further comments about
Robert Robbins, Sr. and Jr., see F. R. Sprague, “George Robbins of Cheltosford,
Mass., in 1667, and Some of His Descendants at Stow, Mass.” (1985),typescript at NEHGS, pp. 3, 4, 20, 67, 110.
