Introduction

Who are the First Families of Westfield ? It is an arbitrary designation at best, but we consider them to be any family or individuals who were settled in the Westfield area before 1800. While collecting information on our own Westfield ancestors, we repeatedly ran into the same families over and over, as would be expected in a small settlement. Soon we found that there were many others who were interested in Westfield families, and they generously shared their files with us, which sometimes contained many years of labor. We decided to ask permission to publish the families on this website, and this is the result of that effort. It is an ongoing effort, and new additions are welcome. Kindly keep in mind that some of the research may be inaccurate, although they are submitted with the best intentions. We do not have the resources or time  to edit all contributions, so corrections are welcome and encouraged if you find a specific error. Please email this information to us and it will be added with the next update. We thank all contributors and hope that the information in this site adds to your research.
