Transcription from photocopies of the original letter written by the Reverend Jonathan Maltby to his friend, Dr. Jared Linley in 1844. Photocopy of the original letter also attached.

Reverend Jonathan Maltby

"A sketch of the pilgrims & some of the puritan fathers who came to Branford & descendants also of Northford & graduates of Yale College from that village with memoirs & miscellany by one of the graduates." Gordon S. Miller notation from page [12] of letter that Rev. Jonathan M. Maltby was the only son of Benjamin Maltby alive in 1844, and therefore the letter was most likely by him.

Letter was written by the Reverend Jonathan Maltby to his friend, Dr. Jared Linley. The letter was apparently in the possession of Randolph L. Simpson, a longtime member of the Northford Historical Institute (forerunner of the Totoket Historical Society) and a Linley descendant.
