Roy,
The source for the births of the two sons, Nathaniel and William, was: Dimock, Susan W. Births, Baptisms, Marriages and Deaths from the Records of the Town and Churches in Mansfield, Connecticut, 1703-1850. New York: Baker and Taylor, 1898.
The Freeman Genealogy (Boston, 1875) says that some of the family went to Butternuts, Otsego, N.Y. The 1800 US census shows that Nathaniel and William were living next-door to each other in Burlington, Otsego, New York, both living alone.
Nathaniel was probably the Nathaniel Freeman who was appointed ensign of Lieut. Colonel Commandant David Baits’s regiment of the New York State militia in Otsego County in 1800 (Hastings, Hugh (New York State Historian); Noble, Henry Harmon (Chief Clerk) (compilers and editors). Military Minutes of the Council of Appointment of the State of New York, 1783-1821. Albany: The State of New York; James B.Lyon, State Printer, 1901.)
By 1820 they were gone from Otsego County. There were a Nathaniel Freeman and a William Freeman living in Cayuga County, one in Scipio Twp. and one in Locke Twp., but I have no proof they were the same men mentioned above.
