CFG. Capt. Daniel MALTBY, b. Oct. 30, 1715, Branford (Branford Rec.), (Daniel 2, Wm. 1). m. Sept. 16, 1736, Mary HARRISON, dau. of Nathaniel and Thankful (Wilkinson) Harrison. (Conn. Mar.). She was b. in Branford, April 19, 1718, and was dau. of Edward and Rebecca Wilkinson.

Wilkinson is a name on several of our Maltby family records in England.

In 1602, Will of our ancestor, Richard Maltby of Kexby, Lincoln, mentions his dau. Margaret Wilkinson.

In 1603, the will of Christopher Maltby of Upton, Lincoln (of our branch) has as witness: Richard Wilkinson. In 1618 our ancestor John Maltby of Springthorpe, Lincoln, has as witness to his will, Richard Wilkinson, and in 1624, Richard Maltby of Upton, Lincoln, (our branch) has as witness to his will, Edmund Wilkinson.

Rev. Jonathan (4) Maltby wrote: "Uncle Daniel Maltby and my father, Benjamin, lived in Northford, near neighbors, and my father died there. Daniel had eleven children, 3 sons and 8 daughters." Daniel Maltby was Deacon in the Congregational Church at Branford.

Rev. Jonathan also wrote: "Daniel owned the place lately occupied by Reuben Harrison, sold to Josiah Fowler and moved to Stony Creek, nr. Branford. A Good Man."

Note. In 1905 or 6, Miss Martha Maltby of Oberlin, Ohio (a descendant of Daniel), was staying for a few days with us at Pine Orchard. We drove to Daniel's old home. It was empty save for an old foot-warmer, that in olden times were carried to church and an old candle mould. "Cousin" Martha purchased the foot-warmer from the care taker, and I the candle mould--for six candles.

We obtain his Military Record from the following:

In April 1744. Daniel Maltbie was admitted one of the freemen of Branford. His home at Northford, was on the Main street. He was a farmer. He was one of the twenty founders of the First Church in Northford, incorporated June 13, 1750, under the pastoral care of Rev. Warham Williams. (Northford Church Rec.)

(Note. The compiler has visited the delightful old parsonage at Northford. The front door has been famous by its use in magazines for an advertisement. Rev. Warham Williams' daughter, Abigail, mar. Col. Stephen Maltby).
