Griswold of Connecticut -- Surname Saturday

Several readers gave suggestions as to the surnames they wanted me to post. In my blog, "Help, Please Tell Me Which Surnames You'd Like to See" of May 19, 2012, I received a few responses. Two of them suggested GRISWOLD, yes, another old Connecticut line and of course, from Windsor and Killingworth. In my first generation, I have three direct lines of Griswold. My direct lines are bolded in green. Please write if you would like more information or sources.
