CFG-BB. Jehiel Merriman MALTBIE, b. Sept. 20, 1767, at Goshen, (Dan.4, Dan.3, Dan.2, Wm1). m. Phebe ----- possibly a Birdsey, as they name a son Birdsey. "Phebe Maltbie was admitted to the Church at Norfolk, Conn., 7 June, 1801. She removed to New York." (Vol. III, Norfolk Ch. Rec.)
*(N.B. I note that Brewin Baldwin and Hannah Foote, name a child Birdsey).
The first three children were bapt. at Norfolk Ct. July 19,1801.
Children: CFG-BBA. Allen Maltbie, b. May 28, 1789. CFG-BBB. Seth " b. Nov. 12, 1793. CFG-BBC. Birdsey " b. July 19, 1801. CFG-BBD. James " bp. July 24, 1803. Descendants write: "A child of Jehiel died in 1790 and another child died Feb. 1792."*Brewin Baldwin, b. 1752, mar. Aug. 13, 1772, Hannah, dau. of Ebenezer Foot of Cornwall. He d. Sept. 6, 1833, and she d. June 10, 1823. Their dau. Betsey, b. May 18, 1788; mar. Nov. 1811, Allen Maltbie of Ohio. (Ref. Hist. of Goshen).
Also, their dau. Laura M. Baldwin, b. Jan. 18, 1798, m. Feb.11, 1823, Jesse Maltbie, who died April 19, 1824.
It would appear that Birdsey was a name either in the Baldwin or Foot family.
