Notes:

Name:
Mrs. Loomis m. (2) John Case of Simsbury and long outlived him. The date of her birth is usually given as 1638, but it was probably tow or three years earlier as Mathew Grant in his church record, gives only three children as born in Windsor to Deacon John Moore, (p. 94 of that record.) She must have been born in Dorchester, where she was baptized before her mother removed to Windsor. "Nathaniell Loomes & Elisabeth more both of Windsor wear 1653 maried Novemb 24, 1653"
