Families of the Children of Samuel4 Washburn Jr. and Sarah Beach
This is a work in progress. So far I’ve only been able to trace the families of two of the children of Samuel Washburn Jr. and Sarah Beach of Derby, Connecticut: the names of 3 children born to son Samuel Washburn 3rd, and part of the family of youngest son Eli Washburn. I will add to this if I am able to find information on the families of the eldest son, William Washburn, or the two daughters, Mary and Sarah Washburn, and if I am able to find where son Samuel settled.
