CGB-FFA. Deacon William MALTBY, b. Mar. 19, 1825 (Henry 5, Jas.4, Sam.3, Sam.2, Wm.1). m. June 4, 1857, Esther HALL, b. Dec. 11, 1823, dau. of Dr. Rice and Esther (Hall) Hall, of Wallingford, Ct. He, as did his ancestors, resided at Northford, Ct. He d. May 31, 1908. Was a member of the Maltby Association.
In 1906 when I, with my mother and sister, were leaving for the West, we went up to Northford to see the old place and the Maltbys who were residing there.
We knew of descendants of Daniel (2), so called on them. As we were leaving they told us: "There is another Maltby living here but they are no relation."
This "no relation" was Deacon William and his family, who de- scended from Samuel (2) Maltbie. Deacon William Maltby's photograph and his obituary were published in the Maltby Association Booklet No. 2.
