1B. H. Davis, Reminiscences of Oxford Homes and People (Seymour Record - 1913), Chapter 14. . "  In continuing the reminiscences of Riggs street we will leave the main road nearly opposite the residence of Ransom Hinman and follow a crossroad for about three-fourths of a mile when we come to an ancient farm house known as the Andrews place.  This house was built some time in the seventies of the 17th century, by a man named Finch, who lived there many years and reared a family of five daughters.  I remember one very distinctly, the youngest, Sarah, who married Hiram Osborn. The place was vacant for several years until about the year 1854.  The farm was then purchased by Nehemiah Andrews o Bethany, then comparatively a young man. He was twice married.  HIs first wife was Phinette of Bethany. Seven children were born of this union, two daughters and five sons, namely:
   * Jay
   * John
   * Dwight
   * Adeline, married Charles Northrop of Woodbridge
   * Emily married Leverett Lindsley, formerly of Oxford, now located at Emporia, Va.
   * Dennis, married a widow lady form Shelton, named Fowler.
   * George, married Sarah Crandall of Woodbridge.
 The only ones now living of this family are the two daughters, Adeline and Emily. Dennis, Jay, George, John and Dwight all died while yet in their young manhood.
 The second wife of Mr. Andrews was Miss Nancy Alling, daughter of Eli Alling of Oxford. Six or seven children were born to them and I think they are all living.  Frank, of Oxford; Mary, lives in Newark, N.J.; William, somewhere in Montana; Charles in Seymour; Mrs. Fox (I don't recall her first name), lives in Brooklyn, N.Y., and Idella in Oxford (NOTE: She married Orlando Osborn, see below).  
  Mr. Andrews lived on the old homestead 35 years. He was a practical up-to-date farmer, and his crops alway showed good care and cultivation. For several years he catered to the wants of th e town's poor, and no one had cause to complain of the treatment they received under his care.  His death occurred Feb. 16, 1880, aged 76. Nancy, his wife, died April 4, 1908.
 Frank, who now owns and occupies the place, is a thrifty farmer and takes an active part in everything pertaining to the welfare of the town. He has a nice family and some of his boys are identified with the bit and auger industry in Seymour." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/Davis-14.html.

6B. H. Davis, Reminiscences of Oxford Homes and People (Seymour Record - 1913), Chapter 14. . "  After his death his son, Orlando, took charge of the estate, and to a certain extend filled the place made vacant by the death of his father. He married Idella Andrews. Five children were born to them, three sons and two daughters.
   * Catherine married R. I. Sanford of Oxford
   * Sadie married Rev. Mr. Norris of Watertown, N.Y.  She died there soon after the marriage.
   * Orlando, Jr. and
   * Harold are located in Waterbury.
   * Arthur lives at home.
 Arthur, like his father, was very popular with his townspeople. He represented the town in the legislature several times. He was a member of Morning Star Lodge, F. & A. M. of Seymour, and was identified with St. Peter's church. He was an honest and upright citizen. He died Feb. 20th, 19??, aged 61 years." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/Davis-14.html.
