Note	BIRTH: Because she was 85 when she died, a search for Elizabeth Clark who was born in 1716-1717 was made. Extracted records from Vital Records show only one possibility: the one born in Haddam. No evidence this is true except the death record. DEATH: "Widow Eggleston age 85 died Aug. 11, 1800." Bethlehem Congregational Church Records, Vol 1, FHL 3803, item 2, p. 10. Since her son James had moved to Bethlehem about 15 years earlier, she must have come with them.
Note	Barbour Collection of Middletown Vital Records: 1:112: "Ambrose Eggleston m. Elizabeth Clark." (FHL book 974.6 V2wl, Vol 26, p. 191)
