Note for:   Wooding Sperry,   23 OCT 1755 - BEF. 10 JUN 1782          Index
Referred to as Woden & Wooden. Served in the Revolutionary War as a Private. in Colonel Hinman's 4th Regiment, 9th company, Connecticut. His revolutionary war record shows him as Woodwin Sparry as does "Connecticut Men In The Revolution" (Record of Connecticut. Men inMilitary And Naval Service During the Revolution) By Henry P.Johnston, Hartford. 1889 page 61.

"Families Of Ancient New Haven" - shows him as Wooding Sperry.

He had granchildren named for him with the spelling Wooden & Woden, however, because his grandmother's maiden name is Wooding, I think it is safe to assume it was meant to be spelled Wooding.

All children listsed are recorded at Canaan, Ct. Vital records. The dates given for their births are those listed in Families of Ancient New Haven. It is interesting to note that a family letter dated September, 8, 1786 & mailed to Miles (Wooding's son) from Rensselearsville, NY in another letter dated December 9, 1803 lists the birth year as exactly 1 year LATER for every child accept Chloe.
FANH lists the date of Miles Birth as 10-10 while all other reference (the above mentioned letters & the family bible) list his birthday as 10-8.

Note for:   Anna Lawrence,   11 NOV 1753 - 20 APR 1813          Index
Also appears as Anne or Ann.

Notes


Note for:   Chloe Sperry,   13 JUN 1775 -          Index
Old letters addressed to Miles Sperry (Chloe's brother) from Barnabas Rice (step father) state that
Chloe married & had 9 children. This included twins born in July of 1809. She made her home in Farisburg (?). The letter simply states "in Farisburg about 3 miles from Caleb Chappel's".

This could refer to her sister Charlotte's husband as another letter mentions that Charlotte married a man named Chappel. Charlotte's letters to Miles state that Chloe sends her love to him. So, I assume Chloe lived near Charlotte.

Notes


Note for:   Polly Sperry,   13 SEP 1776 -          Index

Note for:   Augustus Wooding Sperry,   30 AUG 1780 -          Index
Augustus is mentioned in a letter dated 1813 addressed to his brother Miles from their step father Barnabas Rice. Of course, all the letter lets us know is that he was stilling living then. No further details.
