Dwight and Edward TWICHELL

Surnames: Twichell
I'm trying to establish a link between my ancestor, Dwight Twichell (b. 24 Jan 1816, Wolcott, New Haven, CT) and Edward Twichell (b. 1810, d. 1863). Given they both lived near the little farming village of Southington, Conn., about the same time, I assume they are related...perhaps brothers? Cousins? Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

My mother in law's mother was a Mary Twichell who had a father Treadwell Twichell who was a son of Luther Twitchell and Sally Dance. I have traced back two more Luther Twichells. Mark Twain had a close friend named Joseph H. Twitchell of Southington CT. In our family we have a picture of Mark Twain and Joe Twichell, he was a minister and actually married Mark Twain and his wife. I am sure that all Twichells are related and am in the process of trying to make that connection. Most of our Twichells lived in MN and ND but came from NY, NH and CT.

Surnames: Field, Twichell, Blackwell, McGannon, VanLoon,
Dwight Twichell b 1828 Concord, Erie Co. d. 4 Nov 1906 in Canada (Saskatchewan)He was visiting his last sister, Lois Blackwell. He was living in Arbourville,Nebraska normally. He married Catherine Bowen Tinney his second wife. She was from NH. d. 1899 Arbourville, NB. Dwight was the son of Royal Twichell and Ruth Field (biological mother d. abt 1846) Royal and Ruth married on May 1, 1825. Dwight (eldest) was the grandson of Lemuel Twichell and Esther Seaver. His brothers and sisters are Almeda, Emily, Lemuel but was called Humphrey, Royal Emmons(died age 4 Hudson, Allegany, NY), Elmira, Lois Clarinda. More info available. reblackwell@shaw.ca www.blackwellgenealogy.com The reason for showing this info is that Lemuel had a brother (Samuel)who named his children almost identical to Lemuel. Samuel married Keziah Seaver, sister of Lemuel's wife, Esther. Timeline seems close. It was tough finding who was who in that family. I have no real info on Samuel. Hope this helps your search.
