Thomas Turney 1678-1761 Abigail Wells 1687

From Wikipedia:  On the morning of July 7, 1779, approximately 2,000 enemy troops landed on Fairfield Beach near Pine Creek Point and proceeded to invade the town. When they left the following evening, the entire town lay in ruins, burned to the ground as punishment for Fairfield's support of the rebel cause. Ten years later, President George Washington noted after traveling through Fairfield that "the destructive evidences of British cruelty are yet visible both in Norwalk and Fairfield; as there are the chimneys of many burnt houses standing in them yet.

So, when researching this family, remember some of them lived to see the Revolutionary War.  Keep in mind where they were or might have been during the turmoil and what information you might find in the military and town records.
