Simeon Kelsey was born in CT abt 1731/2*,***; Elisha was a son of his second wife, Ruhumah (?)**; Elisha was born abt 1803***,****. I BELIEVE (but have yet to prove) that this Simeon Kelsey's first wife was Elenor ('Nelly') Sackett.*
And, yes, it is possible...in fact, probable, that 'my' Elisha was the son of Simeon Kelsey. I mention Killingworth because Matthias Kelsey of Killingworth had a son, Simeon, b. abt 1731/32.
Regards,
Cynthia
