Biography
Esther was born on May 25, 1683. Her parents were Nathaniel Baldwin and Hanah Botchford. [1][2]
Research Notes
Looks like family name should be Baldwin. Father was Nathaniel. But the Samuels need to be sorted out.
She purchased land in Saybrook, Ct. [1]page 108.
Mrs. Esther Sanford was a sister of Stephen Parmelee who married Elizabeth (Baldwin), sister of Hannah Baldwin. Hannah Baldwin and her sister Esther, who married Samuel Sanford (Samuel, Thomas) and Elizabeth who married Parmelee were daughters of Nathaniel and Hannah (Botchford) Baldwin. Their ancestry on the Baldwin side dates back to Richard Baldwin of Cholesbury, Buckinghamshire, Eng., who died in 1553. His great grandson, the grandfather of Hannah, Esther and Elizabeth, born in Cholesbury, England, came to this country and settled in Milford, Ct., where he died in 1650— Hannah Botchford was the daughter of Henry Botchford of Milford, one of the pioneer settlers.[1]page 106-107
Note: When you read this there is an Esther Baldwin sister of Hannah Baldwin and an Esther Parmelee sister of Steven Parmelee who married Elizabeth Baldwin, Hannah Baldwin's sister. But I have not found Esther Parmelee sister of Steven. Note: This reference gives Stephen but NO ESTHER Parmelee - The New England Historical and Genealogical Register - https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=2wjybwOT4HAC&hl=en&pg=GBS.RA1-PA404 AND https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=2wjybwOT4HAC&hl=en&pg=GBS.RA1-PA408
These papers taken together absolutely prove that Samuel Sanford married for his second wife Esther Parmelee, that she was then the widow of Deacon Nathaniel Parmelee, of Killingsworth, Ct. The author in all his research and assistance by others, was unable to learn who Esther was, until the discovery of these old papers. - https://archive.org/details/thomassanfordemi01sanf/page/108/mode/2up?q=Samuel+and+Esther
AKA
Alternate name may be spelled Easther. [1]page 108 I also think that her maiden name is Baldwin. Can not say conclusively.

Currently, I am waiting for the merge of Nathaniel-9 and Nathaniel-36. (Other PM has not responded yet). Then I need to consider: 1. If this Esther is really Baldwin-516 and the maiden name was confused when she was created. One source says she was first married to Nathaniel Parmelee's, and his first name might have been used and not his last name. 2. When she was created her father's first name (Nathaniel Baldwin) was used instead of Baldwin. 3. Or is she Esther Parmelee, sister of Steven Parmalee found in another source.
If any or all are true, that would clean up a lot of this family tree. When that is done, I can clean up the Bio.
Thanks for paying attention to our work.

I can share the table with you if you want. Or if you can speed the merge request that would help.
Thanks.
