• Notes

  He came to Connecticut with the other Milford Baldwins, but his exact connection to them is unknown. Savage shows him as a son of Sylvester, son of Richard Baldwin of Cholesbury. Without naming his father, Charles Henry Cory gives him as a grandson of the Sylvester Baldwin who died at sea in 1638. Later researchers have found these suggestions implausible. John Baldwin (1619-1681) = Mary Bruen (1630-1670) Josiah Baldwin (1642-1683) = Mercy Camp (b. 1652) Josiah Baldwin (b. 1677) = Mary Pierson (d. 1726) Eleazer Baldwin (b. 1717) = Experience Buell (b. 1724) Mary Baldwin (1760-1842) = John Spofford (1752-1823) Horatio Gates Spofford (1778 1832) = Hannah Bristol (1779-1837) Mary Spofford (d. 1845) = Matthew Leffingwell (1801-1841) Mary Leffingwell (1833-1880) = Jonas Bowman (b. 1824) Adelaide Mesiah Bowman (b. 1859) = Charles Henry Berger (b. 1850) Hazel Dawn Berger (1883-1950) = Lloyd Groff Copeman (1881-1956) Ruth Mary Copeman (1914-1982) = Gilbert Ronstadt (1911-1995) Linda Maria Ronstadt (b. 1946)
