It's time to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history and genealogy musings for Treasure Chest Thursday.
The treasure today is the 1718 death record of John Tracy in Windham County, Connecticut:
The death record for John Tracy is:
The transcription of this death record for John Tracy is:
"[TRACY] John, Lieut., d. May 30, 1718, in the 85th y. of his age, [Vol.] 1 P[age] 11]"
The source citation for this record is:
"Connecticut Town Death Records, pre-1870 (Barbour Collection)," indexed database with images, Ancestry.com (http://www.ancestry.com), "Windham Vital Records, 1692-1850," page 350, John Tracy death entry, 30 May 1718.
This record is a Derivative Source, with Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the death of John Tracy. The Original source is a Windham County record book that is not available online. Volume 1, page 11, probably refer to the town record book.
John Tracy (1633-1718) was born in Duxbury, Massachusetts, the son of Stephen and Tryphosa (Lee) Tracy. He married May Pence (1629-1711) in about 1658 in Plymouth, Massachusetts. They had 5 children.
John and Mary (Prence) Tracy are my 8th great-grandparents. I am descended through their son John Tracy (1661-1701), who married Deborah --?-- in about 1682.
