1845 Letter to Hartford Lawyer: Famous CT Genealogy Israel Stoughton Pequot War For Sale

Letter to Nathaniel Goodwin, discussing genealogy related to Commander Israel Stoughton of the Pequot War and Aaron Bissell of East Windsor Hill (now South Windsor).

From a cache of letters to/from Nathaniel GOODWIN (1782-1855), who was a genealogist, Probate Judge, and Treasurer of Hartford CT. He also published "Descendants of Thomas Olcott" (1845), "The Foote Family" (1849), and posthumously, “Genealogical Notes of Some of the First Settlers of Connecticut and Massachusetts," with a memoir (1856).

All ephemera shows wear commensurate to age, including, potentially, stains, worn corners, dings, fraying, scents, stray marks, rips, and other imperfections, etc. You get what you see.

Decent condition for age, but does have a definite scent.
