Susan,

On page 537, of The Baldwin Genealogy Book by Charles Candee Baldwin it
says:

425. John Baldwin b. and lived in New Milford, Ct., in that part known as
Mount Tom. My account of him is in confusion, and seems inconsistent with
itself. He married Susannah Bristol. His widow and only surviving
brother Abiel are his administrators, March 19,(?) 1803. He was, as
Deacon John, killed June 10,(?) 1803, by the fall of a tree. His widow
Mercy, d. July 5, 1823, aged 64 (New Milford Cemetery). Children:

988. Mercy Jr. b. 1785, d. July 28, 1808, age 23
989. Polly b. 1788, d. June 10, 1872 (New Milford Cemetery)
990. Hannah, b. 1788; d. Oct, 1806, age 7(?)
991. Samuel b. Sept 6, 1791 (Narrative of Davis)
992. Susannah "Jr" b. Aug 29, 1794 (m) Rev. Daniel Baldwin 5, Theophilus 4,
Theophilus 3, Theophilus 2, Richard Baldwin of Milford, Ct.
993. John b. Sept 22, 1796
994. Bristoll, b. 1799, d. Oct 3, 1806, aged 7
there is a lot of confusion as you can see with above mentioned line
>From page 120 of the same book:

He (m) Nov 8, 1809, Susan Baldwin. Daniel was a Baptist Minister. He
resided in Northville, New Milford, until Aug, 1846, when he moved to Farm
Ridge, La Salle County, Illinois, where he died Oct 7, 1860. His wife
