Note	BIRTH: His birth is not recorded in Branford records where James and Joanna were thought to be living, but it is known he is the son of James because they served together in the Revolutionary War in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. Since he was age 19 in the Wyoming Valley Company in 1777, he would have been born about 1758. "Edward Frisbie of Branford and his Descendants," Vol 1, by Nora G.
