3. Lena Bresee christened 9 Feb 1783 daughter of John C.: My source, Sharon Reck (Reck37719@aol.com) showed Lena christened in Hillsdale, NY. Her notes show that the father, John C., had the first 5 children christened in W. Stockbridge or Gt. Barrington, Berkshire, MA but that son Mark, child #7, was christened in Hillsdale, NY on 15 Aug 1791. I assume that is about when they moved from W. Stockbridge. Therefore, your notes may be correct that Lena was born in W. Stockbridge and not Hillsdale.
See Revo Morrey file "Mel.05_10.jpg" showing birth 9 Feb 1783 in Hillsdale, NY.
