An attempt to unravel the family history of Phoebe Hempstead, my maternal great-grandmother. I believe she descends from Joshua Hempstead [of Diary fame] of New London, Connecticut, through his grandson Nathaniel who moved to Brooklyn, NY in the late 1790's.

COMING SOON...
Definitely need an update here. Still some confusion on the name of Phebe Hempstead and her brother John Hempstead's mother. Still trying to find further info on Christopher Hempstead, the eldest son who presumably died in Albany, NY. I have DNA results from 23 and Me, as well as My Heritage [I uploaded the results from 23 and Me to My Heritage], and hope to make some contact with a Hempstead descendant. In the meantime I have found some census info on the children and grandchildren of Christopher Hempstead [Sr.] which I have yet to post.
