I haven't been able to find records for Guilford. Does anyone know if there are Guilford vital records online? I did find this:
The Barbour collection of Connecticut town vital records. [16], Guilford 1639-1850 is an item listed in the WorldCat catalog, indicating that there is a printed book or archive material with this title in a library..... This item may be located in the following libraries: Fresno County Public Library.
Anyone live near Fresno? Without a birth record, we'll never know who Jerusha's father is.
