reminiscence published in The N.E. Register in 1858 suggest that Susannah

falling tree. Inventory was taken at Canaan, 23 May 1741. Elizabeth m. at
Sheffield, Mass., 23 Aug. 1754, Preserved NOBLE. Abigail had a child in
Egremont, Mass., in 1762. Susanna had a child by John HUBBARD at
Sheffield in 1764. Mary had a child by John HUXLEY at Sheffield in 1758
and was warned out of Sheffield in 1756 Evidence for this is found in Sheffield
V R Hartford Probate District, Canaan Docket No. 2683; Court of Sessions
Dockets, 1761-1795, p. 45, in Pittsfield Mass.; the Congregational Church at
Canterbury, Conn., (1:156-7); the Register (12:123); and the records of
the Court of General Sessions and Common Pleas at Northhampton, Mass. (6: 68).
The paucity of Highstead/Highsted events and the concentration of the few found
in one geographic lead one to conclude that prob. all belong to the same family.
