(Temperance’s surname is often given as Baldwin, but it is unclear why. Perhaps someone confused her with Temperance Baldwin (dau. of Richard & Elizaberth Baldwin) who married Nathan Burwell in 1682.)

"He emigrated from England with his father and sister between 1628 and 1632 and settled in Salem. He married around 1645 and had a son Benjamin a year later. Removed to Long Island in 1653 and bought land in Southold, East Hempstead and Matinecock." - Elizabeth Harris
BIRDSALL (BURDSALL) FAMILY:
Nathan Birdsall, ......., d. 1696; settled in Long Island, N.Y., in the middle of the 17th century. Mary Powell Bunker in her book "Long Island Genealogies" 1895, suggests that he came originally from New Haven, Conn., settling first in the north end of East Hampton, L.I. where he was living in 1657. In 1666 he purchased from Mark Meggs, land at Matinecock, L.I. near Oyster Bay, his name being given as Nathan Burcham. In 1667-8, writing his name as Nathan Birdsall, he bought land from the Indians at Matinecock. In 1678, Nathan Birdsall, Matthew Prior, Christopher Hawxhurst and Samuel and Joseph Weeks were allowed to have "the great meadow and half the little meadow," exact location not clear but probably near Matinecock. In the same year Nathan Birdsall, Capt. John Underhill, Matthew Prior, James Cocks and John Feaks formed the neighborhood of Killingworth, at or near Oyster Bay, L.I. In 1679, Nathan Birdsall bought land of Lawrence I. Mott lying near Jerusalem (Little Brittain), L.I., and in the same year bought land of Thomas Ireland called Birdsall's swamp. The name is spelled Birdsall in early Long Island records and Burdsall in early New Jersey records. Later generations in New Jersey used the spelling Birdsall which is the form that will be used herein.
NATHAN2 BIRDSALL, (Henry), was born 1611 and removed to New Haven, CT by 1643 when he was accused of stealing £13 from his master's house. He m. ca. 1645 when he was about 34 years old but we have no record of the name of his wife. He removed again in 1653 to East Hampton, LI where he purchased land. He was next of Southold and then of East Hempstead. In the fall of 1665 he and six other men decided to buy land at what is now called Matinecock. Nathan died about 1698.
