1722 Milford, CT Gillette family
Posted by: Robert (ID *****5089) Date: June 18, 2005 at 14:55:33
  of 1228

William Gillette/Gillett was married to Elizabeth Welch in Milford, CT in 1722, and they had CHILDREN THERE, and TODAY THERE ARE DESCENDANTS.

Unproven theory makes this William the son of John Gillette/Gillett & Sarah Tryon of Wethersfield, CT, and an equally unproven tradition has it that he came to Connecticut from France as an adult, and that in France he was a Huguenot pastor.

Someone needs to "crack" this case. It has been a vexing "unsolved mystery" for many years.

Varying traditions have assigned him the occupations of clergyman, medical doctor, and blacksmith at Milford.
