• Notes

  He is listed as being born in Connecticut in his son William's 1880 census record. His birth and death date are clearly written in bible as given. There is a John listed in the Ct. death and burial records that might be him. Name: John Babcock Birth Date: abt 1766 Age at Death: 68 Death Date: 1834 Death Place: Connecticut, Gender: Male FHL Film Number: 3233. The closest match I've found to the bible records in Connecticut is a John Babcock, son of Timothy and Thankful Babcock who was born on Jul 26, 1766 in Connecticut births. If this is Jim's ancestor John, then Timothy was born in 1747 and married Thankful Read of Norwich, CT in 1757. This birthdate is clearly not the same one, unless the index I read it from misinterpreted the handwriting for the birth of Timothy and Thankful's son John in the original records. Wikitree says the birthplace for the John born in 1766 was Stonington, Connecticut. This John died in 1834 which again could be a typo error. It's the only possible match for John in Connecticut records which are known to be of good quality for this period in time.
