I also have the vital records for Promfret, Conn
Hi Karen:
I have been following the Charles Lewis Cady discussion on the Cady list,
as I have a Cady line in Pomfret CT and also am interested in the Donner
Party story, and recently learned that a Cady was involved in the 2nd rescue
party. (I live in California and am a member of the Oregon - California Trail
Association, the emigrant trail).
In your Cady records from Pomfret CT, do you show a marriage for Penuel
Cady in the mid 1760s? He was born ca 1745 in Killingly CT (town next to
Pomfret) and lived his adult life in Pomfret. He married someone named Prudence,
but I can't find her maiden name. They had a son named Chester, born 1767 and
a daughter named Gratis. I have all the information on the children, but need
to find out who Prudence was. Thanks so much for any help you can send.
Nancy
