Working on Connecticut cemeteries, and I've had a heckuva time with Hannah, wife of Moses Betts. Died 24 Dec 1782 in the 22nd year of her age. She was buried at the Old Congregational Burying Ground, Stratford, Connecticut, the only person named Betts I've found buried in that cemetery; no records for any other cemetery in the town of Stratford that I've found either. So maybe that's where the young bride's parents lived?
I've worked through Orcutt's Bridgeport & Stratford, Jacobus's Familes of Old Fairfield, and Frederic Betts' volume "Thomas Betts of Guilford & Norwalk, and his Descendents." I've also reviewed Connecticut Church Record Abstracts & the Barbour collection's CT volume. I could have missed something, but I have done a lot of looking.
I won't repeat here what's on her profile. Two men called Moses Betts have been eliminated as her spouse, and a list of Hannahs born in the area in the right time window that aren't ruled out. (No reason our Hannah has to be one of those, either.)
I've run out of things to do. And this is just one of a few thousand tombstone photos from the area I have on deck to process. I give up! But I do hope someone else can come up with something. Since the tombstone was broken that record could be lost soon, so I didn't want to neglect her.
Can anybody find anything to add to poor Hannah? One thing for sure: I don't know how to do the "Connecticut Unconnected" category label. If someone could help with that?
