Thank you for the Geoff Riggs reference! One section listed the names of the original settlers of Milford, CT. The name Campfield evolved into Canfield (some of my ancestors) and the name Astwater became Atwater. The family that owns the Atwater and the Hazlit wineries in the NYS Finger Lakes came from Milford in the early 1800s. They are also related to me. I live next to the Erie Canal and in the summer we get tourists from the Midwest who know from family records that their ancestors went west via the canal. Teri
