My mother is a Trench and I have traced the line from Conn. to the Boston area of Mass. as follows:

(1) Virginia Eleanor Trench 1916-1966 b. New Haven, CT, d. North Haven, CT & Ellsworth Davis 1907-1995 b. New Haven, CT, d. Wash., D.C.

(2) Elmer Eugene.Trench 1887-1972 b. New Haven, CT, d. Branford, CT & Ora Esta Shank 1886-1961 b. Continental, Putnam, OH, d. New Haven, CT

(3) Ira James Trench 1851-1932 b. Grand Ledge (now Lansing), MI & Charlotte Totten 1860-1891 b. NY, d. NY or NJ?

(4) Henry Augustus Trench 1817-1895 born & died Middletown, CT & Susan Grant Russell 1827–1892 b. Shelby, NY, d. Middletown, CT

(5) William James Trench 1788-1867 born & died Middletown, CT & Annah Turner 1791–1849 born & died Middletown, CT

(6) Sgt. James Trench 1744-1822 b. Boston d. Middletown, CT (in Rev. War) & Elizabeth Strong 1752–1813 born & died Middletown, CT

(7) James Trench 1719-1800 b. Boston d. Durham, CT? & Susannah Butcher (b.?-d.?) mar. Jan 19, 1743 Boston

(8) James Trench b. England? d. ? & Philippa White b. ? d. ? mar. Jan 15, 1714 Boston

I've hit a brick wall on the following and any info you might have would be more than greatly appreciated. I've been searching for years now.

(1) William James Trench 1788-1867 Middletown, CT) married Annah Turner who was born 4/25/1791 in Middletown, CT and died 9/15/1849 in Middletown, CT. They were married 5/14/1812 also in Middletown. I can find nothing on her parents.

(2) James Trench's wife, Susannah Butcher-nothing on her except their marriage..

(3) James Trench of Boston who came from England? and his wife Philippa White (Carter, Greenwood, Trench) also of Boston, married Boston. I found nothing on him in England or Boston and nothing on Philippa's parents.



Many thanks for any light anyone can shed on this.
