research notes

I believe this is the same person, with birth year off by ten years (both are likely estimated). Trying to verify if the same person as :

Moses Bixby, Jr., born about 1739, Orleans, Barnstable, Massachusetts Bay Colony, d. 1809, Norwalk, Fairfield, CT; the son of Moses Bixby, Sr. and Phoebe Hopkins (on Wikitree Bixby-785 and Hopkins-3640). Married 26 Jan. 1764 in Norwalk, Fairfield, CT to Elizabeth Hoyt-4692. They had a daughter, Phebe (Bixby) Knapp Putnam, b. 1774 CT. ^{[2] [3] [4]}

If the same person, please connect to parents and wife on Wikitree. Can you help with this?
