Biography

Elizabeth Baldwin was born 23 Jun 1745 at Stonington, Connecticut, the second child of Eunice (Spaulding) & John Baldwin. Elizabeth, daughter of John Baldwin & Eunice, was born on 23 June 1745 in Stonington, New London, Connecticut.^[1]

Elizabeth, child of Jno Baldwin & Unice Baldwin, was baptised on 4 August 1745 in North Stonington, Connecticut, United States.^[2]

Elizabeth married Jesse Swan on 24 November 1766 in Stonington, Connecticut, United States.^[3]

She married 24 Nov 1764 at Stonington, Connecticut, Jesse Swan. They had 10 children during the timespan through May 1787.

As to whether she married Samuel Fenn, there are no data to support that premise. Note that three of the children of Samuel Fenn, currently profiled as likewise children of Elizabeth (Baldwin) Swan, were born during the midpoint of Elizabeth's marriage to Jesse Swan, and their birth dates are interspersed with the other Swan children. Also note that those three children are profiled as being born in central Connecticut, which is an area geographically disparate and quite distant from Stonington where Elizabeth (Baldwin) and Jesse Swan resided. Note also that the profile for Samuel Fenn is unsourced, with no references cited for any data within that profile. For these reasons there is no valid reason to presume that any attachment of Elizabeth Baldwin with Samuel Fenn ever existed, hence the profile of Samuel Fenn, as well as of the aforementioned 3 children, are herewith disconnected from Elizabeth (Baldwin) Swan.
