Wrong parents for Eli Bronson (Bronson-339)?

+2 votes
152 views

In reviewing some Bronson family sources, I reviewed Eli Bronson (Bronson-339) against both Henry Bronson's The History of Waterbury, Connecticut (Page 472) and FindAGrave #83438636. Both state Eli's birth and spouse and children consistent with Eli Bronson (Bronson-339).  However both sources show Eli's parents are Isaac and Eunice (Richards) Bronson rather than Micah and Elizabeth (Squire) Bronson.  Since I can't review some of the sources used in Eli Bronson (Bronson-339), I need someone's help in confirming whether there are two Eli Bronson that have been conflated or whether the parents are simply wrong.

Rob and Michael, I have made some changes to Eli Bronson's profile. A reliable source from American Ancestors confirms your findings that the wrong parents were attached. I have detached the wrong parents and added a source and text introducing Isaac and Eunice as parents but did not complete with connections. Since there is no profile manager, maybe one or both of you would like to adopt Eli and continue to make improvements to his profile. Thanks for posting this on G2G!
