Susan,

This is a scanned copy of a page from Susan Abbotts Book, "Families of Milford,
Ct.". According to the Baldwin Genealogy Book by Charles Candee Baldwin, this
questionable Mary Baldwin is not listed so I have no way to tell the connection
between Mary and Sarah Baldwin.

Samuel Oviatt s of Thomas and Frances was born 24 November 1672, baptized 16
February 1672/3 and died 1749 or 1750(administration of his estate was granted to
his grandson John Oviatt (New Haven Probate Vo.. 7 pg 569) 1 January 1749/50.
He married Mary ( ) (maybe Baldwin see MLR Vol. 12
pg 376-378). C-a=ed soapboiler in one deed of land.
New Haven Probate I Jan 1749/50 "We John Oviat,
principal and Jacob Baldwinsurety, both of Milford,
find ourselves to the Administration of Samuel Oviat
late of Milford".
"To either of the constables of Milford and also
either of the constables of New Milford all within Co.
of New Haven, John Oviatt of said Milford, grandson
of Mr. Samuel Oviatt late of said Milford, deceased
intending to move to the court of Probate to be held
at New Haven in said County on the first Monday of
January next in and for the district of said New Haven
for administration of the estate of said Samuel
Oviatt deceased". "Those are in his majesties name
to require you to give notice to Samuel Oviatt, Alex-
ander Oviatt both of Milford, and Giles Oviatt of
said New Milford sons to said Samuel Oviatt deceased,
they may appear before said court of probate and give
reason if any why they should not be granted to the
said John Oviatt. Fail not, and make return of this
with your doings thereon as the law directs; dated
Milford 18th day of December anno Dom 1749 signed
Roger Newton."
New Milford, Conn. December ye 26ht 1749, "From
the above writer notification served upon ye above
named Giles Oviatt by reading of same in his hearing
in New Milford by me Samuel Bostwick."
To the Judge of ye Probate for the District of
New Haven, "Sir, we ye Subscribers Do Depose yt of
