      1. FHL book 929.273 B233bd, "The Connecticut Barbers, A Genealogy of the Descendants of Thomas Barber of Windsor, Connecticut," 2nd Ed., Donald S. Barber, p. 4: "The following is an attempt to clarify some relationships between Coggins and Barbers: ...Joan ___, b. Eng., d. Springfield, MA, Nov 1695, md. 1641 Thomas Coggin, b. Eng., d. Taunton, MA, in 1653/4. Joan (___) Coggin md. (2) 1654 Obadiah Miller of Springfield. Children of Joan and Thomas Coggin:
      a. Bathsheba Coggin, b. Taunton abt. 1645, m. John Barber.
      b. Mary Coggin, b. Taunton abt. 1647, m. Samuel Barber.
      c. Martha Coggin, b. Taunton abt. 1648, m. Peter Buell.
      d. Ruth Coggin, b. Taunton abt. 1650, m. Samuel Taylor.
      Children of Joan ___ and Obadiah Miller:
      a. Lazarus Miller, b. Springfield, MA, 23 Sep 1655, m. Mary Burbank.
      b. Obadiah Miller, b. Springfield, MA, 26 Mar 1658, m. Benedicta Lawton.
      c. Joanna Miller, b. Springfield, MA or Windsor, CT, 6 Jul 1659, d. Springfield, 3 Nov 1713, md. 27 Jan 1677/8 John Barber Jr. of Springfield. John Barber, Jr. of Springfield is not apparently related to John of Windsor, son of Thomas. From the above, it is apparent that Joanna Miller was a younger stepsister of Bathsheba and Mary Coggin, all 3 being daughters of Joan (___) Coggin Miller. (Source: Corres. from Rich Raney)."

      2. FHL book 929.273 B233bd, "The Connecticut Barbers, A Genealogy of the Descendants of Thomas Barber of Windsor, Connecticut," 2nd Ed., Donald S. Barber, p. 6-8: "Samuel, bapt. 1 Oct 1648 at Windsor, d. there 12 Mar 1708.9; md. (1) Mary Coggin, b. Taunton, MA abt. 1647, d. Windsor 19 May 1676, dau. of Thomas and Joan (___) Coggin, and sister of Bathsheba who m. Samuel's brother John Barber. Samuel md. (2) Ruth Drake, b. 1 Dec 1657, d. Windsor 13 Nov 1731, dau. of John and Hannah (Moore) Drake. After his parents' death just after his 14th birthday, Samuel was placed (4 Feb 1662) in the home of his brother Thomas until age 21. At about the time of his marriage, Samuel apparently went with his brother to Simsbury, but must have returned to Windsor soon, because all of his family's vital records were recorded in Windsor. He lived in a house on the original Barber tract, nearly opposite the Windsor Cannery on Poquonock Ave. This house was first occupied by his brother John, but was transfered to Samuel when John moved to Springfield. (Sources: 1909 Barber Gen; Barbour Indes; CT Hist Soc: LB Barour Manuscripts; Early Coggins, English and American, by Geo. E. McCracken.) Children of Samuel and Mary, born in Windsor:
      a. Thomas, b. 7 Oct 1671, bur. 31 Oct 1673.
      b. Samuel, b. 26 Jan 1673/4, d. Windsor 1 Feb 1722/3, m. (1) Hepzibah 'Ziba' Brown, b. Windsor 19 Nov 1664, d. 20 Dec 1711, dau. of Peter and Mary (Gillett) Brown. Samuel m. (2) Windsor 18 Jun 1713, Martha Ponder of Westfield, MA, b. 1677/8, d. Windsor (Bloomfield Church rec.) 6 Aug 1758. Samuel lived in Poquonock (in the norhtwest part of Windsor), one mile north of the Baptist Meeting House. [9 children listed for this couple.]
      Children of Samuel and Ruth born at Windsor:
      a. John Drake, b. ??25 Jan 1676/7, died young. This birth date is probably incorrect since it is the same as the marriage date of Ruth to Samuel. Probably John Drake was born a bit later, and was the first child of Ruth, and was named for her father John Drake.
      b. William, b. 1678, m. Esther Brown.
      c. Mary 'Mercy', b. 1680, d. 27 Aug 1719, m. Windsor 22 Jul 1696 Peter Brown, b. Windsor 12 Mar 1666/7, d. there 6 Mar 1739, son of Peter and Mary (Gillette) Brown; res. Windsor. Mary died on the day her twins were born. Peter was perhaps a grandson of Peter Brown of Plymouth, MA, and of the Mayflower; however, the Mayflower Society thinks there is not enough proof to allow this connection, and will not allow this to be a valid connection. [7 children of this couple listed.]
      d. Hannah, b. 4 Oct 1681, d. before 1708.
      e. Joseph, b. 1681, m. (1) Hannah ___, m. (2) Mary Loomis.
      f. Ruth, b. 24 Jul 1683, d. 2 Aug 1747, m. Windsor 18 Apr 1706 William Phelps, b. 4 Feb 1668/9, d. 1733, son of Timothy and Mary (Griswold) Phelps, res. Windsor. [Lists 3 children for this couple.]
      g. David, b. 12 May 1686, m. Hannah Post.
      h. Benjamin, b. abt 1690, m. Hannah Lewis.
      i. Elizabeth, b. abt. 1690 (Barbour Index states 9 Feb 1684/5), m. Windsor 10 Nov 1709 Daniel Loomis, b. 15 Nov 1682, d. 1754, son of Daniel and Mary (Ellsworth) Loomis. Eliza. and Daniel lived 2 1/2 miles south of Windsor Center which would place them in the Deerfield section of present day Windsor. Samuel's will of 21 Feb 1708/9 left 25 pounds each to Elizabeth, Mindwell, and Sarah, when they become 18 years of age. This would mean Elizabeth was born after 1689. [7 children of this couple are detailed.]
      i. Mindwell, b. 3 Dec 1691, d. 3 Dec 1712.
      j. John, b. 1696, m. Jane Alvord.
      k. Sarah, b. Windsor, 28 Aug 1698, d. Westfield, MA, 4 Jan 1741/2, m. (1) Windsor ('both of Windsor') 17 Oct 1717 Stephen Palmer, b. Windsor 20 Jan 1686, d. there 17 Nov 1720, son of Timothy and Hannah (Buel) Palmer. Sarah m. (2) 5 Oct 1729 Isaac Phelps III, b. Westfield, MA, 26 Jan 1692/3, son of Isaac and Mary (Maudsly) Phelps. Sarah lived in Poquonock with her first husband Stephen, and at Westfield with Isaac. [9 children detailed of Sarah and Stephen.]"
