Hi Judy: Roslin Castle, I found on a mariage list on one of the Canadian sites. It is a
name I have found a few times in place of Roswell, who is the person I am really looking
for. I know there are two Roswell Castle's in New York one married Anna unknown in New
York State.These are completely different people.
The Roswell Castle I am searching for was married in Castleton, Rutland, VT on 4/2/1802
to Roxanna Hartwell. Roxanna was the daughter of Ebenezer and Hannah Bangs Hartwell who
moved from Dutchess County, NY in the late 1790s. Roxanna died in 1819 and I have found
Roswell in the 1820 census under "Roslin Castle" in Rutland, Vermont.
I know that the two Roswell's found on some sites has been mistaken for this Roswell
and I know for sure that my Roswell didn't marry Anna, nor did he lived in NY in the
1840-1860s.
I believe my Roswell is one of those who was in Bennington County, VT in the mid-late
1700s and later headed to Pawlet and Castleton. There is another group of Castle's in
Vermont, and to date I haven't found and I haven't been able to prove who his
parents were.
Now back to Lovina, I would appreciate any info you are willing to share. Thank you for
your response.
