General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Sibley

---

He was born September 19, 1703. [HWC 1906 II, 392] GPHAV gives this as the date of his baptism.

After living a short time in Sutton, Massachusetts, he and his family moved to Ashford, Connecticut. He was a farmer.

He moved from Sutton, Massachusetts, to Union, Connecticut.

In the history of the town of Sutton, Massachusetts, the statement is made that “very little is known of Benjamin (the father). He probably left Sutton very soon after the birth of his son Benjamin. According to Deacon Leland it appears by Sibley papers in the hands of Nathaniel Sibley, 2d, that he at one time lived in Ellington, Connecticut. The following scrap is found in the handwriting of Mr. Baldwin: 'Benjamin Sibley was one of the original brothers and lived in Sutton a few years when he went to Union, Conn., and died there or in Ashford.' ” Aaron Sibley, his grandson, was a representative of Westfield in 1827 or 1828.
