African American Weston, Connecticut
Am researching John Weston, he served in the Connecticut 29th, Colored, Regiment during the Civil War. He enlisted from Danbury, Fairfield County, Connecticut.
He is living in Milford, New Haven County, Connecticut in the 1880 census. His family is listed in the 1900 census in Norwalk, Fairfield County, Connecticut. He died in Norwalk before 1900 and is buried in Riverside Cemetery there.
There are African American Westons in Litchfield County, Connecticut in 1850 and 1860. I could not connect John to these families.
I would appreciate any information on this family.
Sincerely,
Judy Cobin, Norwalk, Connecticut
