Breed-Mumford family papers, 1752-1829.

The Breed Family papers include the records of Gershom and his sons John McLaren, Simeon and Jesse, and of the partnership of Simeon and Jesse of Norwich, Connecticut. Of interest are lottery tickets sold to raise funds for the Norwich Channel and a hand drawn map of the road between Preston and Voluntown, 1829. The Mumford family papers consist almost entirely of records from the Revolutionary War. The muster rolls and payrolls are arranged alphabetically by the name of the captain, or other ranking officer if no captain is listed. The enlistments and bounties are organized chronologically by year, but not by month. The military orders have been arranged alphabetically by the name of the highest-ranking officer mentioned in the document.
