Sibley Family Genealogy Forum
  
I am descended from Sibleys in Central Mass and trying to search earlier connections back from Benoni Sibley who was from Greenwich Mass, flooded under the Quabbin reservoir in the 30's. He and other family are buried in the Quabbin Park Cemetery where they were moved prior to the "flood".
He died in 1829 at age 47 [b.ca 1782] and was father to my gg-grandfather Beeman B. Sibley. We know they lived in the Greenwich/ Enfield area but we don't know for how long or from where or who their ancestors were. I don't even know his wife's name and haven't had a chance to get to either the cemetery or the historical records of Enfield and Greenwich.
p.s. I would also love any info on the name "Benoni" does it show up in other families of the period?
