Disputed Origins
- Sylvester Baldwin Jr., and Sarah Bryan were previously attached as parents of Temperance. According to the Aston Clinton Records, Bucks Co., England,, shown as mother to this profile, had 9 children. 6 of those children emigrated with their parents in 1638 aboard the ship "Martin". (See Baldwin-129 for complete source information).
- Temperance Baldwin is not named as daughter of Sylvester and Sara (Bryan or Ryan) Baldwin. Sylvester died aboard the ship at sea, and his noncupative will was proved in Boston, Mass., approx. July 1638, in which Sarah (Bryan) Baldwin and her son Richard Baldwin (age approx. 16 years old) are named executors of Sylvester's Will. The will does not mention Temperance Baldwin, born 1622 in New Haven CT (per information contained in this profile).
- There is data contained in Ancestry.com for a Temperance Baldwin born in 1622, Oyster Bay, Nassau County, Long Island, shown as daughter of Sylvester Baldwin and Sarah Bryan. Example: family data collection-Births, Edmund West comp.
- Temperance also could not be the daughter of Richard Baldwin (Reynolds), as its well documented that his daughter Temperance married Nathan Burwell.
Biography
The wife of Nathan Birdsall is frequently referred to as Temperance Baldwin, but this is likely do to Nathan being confused with similarly named people. Currently, records documenting either her first or last name are sought.
Nathan Birdsall married about 1645, and his first son, Benjamin was born in Connecticut in 1646[1] -

Consensus: 1) removed her from PGM project. 2) not merge. see comment from M Cole.
Many thanks for all PGM contributers.

Researchers here agree on merge? Someone please do it, if you agree. After I remove her from PGM, connection with PGM comments will be disabled.
And it says she was born in 1651. https://www.genealogieonline.nl/en/ancestral-glimpses/I19276.php
There's a good overview of the various Baldwin sources on the genealogieonline.nl page, but its a question of sorting out if any of it applies to the wife of Nathan Birdsell. It sounds like from some of the comments below that perhaps both her first name and last name come from a mistaken identity.
Birdsall, Nathan& [Temperance BALDWIN] c. 1645? ; East Hampton, LI/Oyster Bay, LI
Unfortunately the Ancestry version and my printed version do not list the sources that the original printing had. The '[ ]" to me indicates uncertainly in her name.

In NEHGS, checking PGM for Temperance yields only that a Temperance Baldwin is listed as a grandchild in the will of John Astwood. will dated Nov. 9, 1669.
You could try to review "The Baldwin Genealogy From 1500-1881" by Charles Candee Baldwin. It is listed as a source on most of the Baldwins listed in GMD.
