    Notes:

    Joshua Huntington was admitted to the church in Norwich, CT at the same time with his wife, in 1727. He seems to have been a very active business man. He was one of the most forward in commencing the new settlement at the Landing. He was allowed to take up "twenty-five square upon the water on the west side of Rocky Point, on the north side of Lieut. Lathrop's grant, if it be there to be had; not prejudicing the conveniency to be laid out by James Huntington and Daniel Tracy." He was highest on the list of subscribers to the bridge built in 1737, over the Shetucket to unite Norwich and Preston, an enterprise in which none but moneyed men in that day could engage. In his successful business career, commenced that family distinction and wealth, which, at the opening of the Revolution, had placed his two surviving children at the head of the aristocracy, even of their own aristocratic town. He died on 8/26/1745.

    BEF. 1705 owned Spectacle Island-Boston Harbor

    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

    SPECTACLE ISLAND lies in Boston harbor 3 1/2 miles from the wharf,
    between Castle and Long Islands. It was, for the most part, in the
    possession of the Bill family for about three quarters of century. The
    first record of sale or transfer to this family of which there is any
    positive knowledge, is a deed of three lots granted by James Bill, of
    Pulling Point, to Thomas Bill, of Boston, bearing date Dec. 13, 1666.The
    above Thomas Bill and his wife Abigail Bill, by deed in 1680, conveyed
    all their interest in Spectacle Island (about 35 acres) to their son
    Samuel Bill. He subsequently became possessed of the entire Island,and
    it was known for many years after by the name of "Samuel Bill's Island."
    He continued in the ownership up to the time of his decease, August 18,
    1705, when two thirds of it passed by will into the hands of his son,
    Samuel Bill, Jr.
    At a later date, this son acquired absolute title and held it up to
    1729-30, when it passed into the possession of his brother, Richard Bill,
    of Boston. It was during the ownership of Samuel Bill, Sr., in theyear
    1684, when the titles by which the Colonists held their lands werelikely
    to be put in jeopardy, in consequence of the insidious counsel of some of
    the resident authorities of the home government, that the following deed
    from an Indian Chief called Josiah or Wamputuck, and several of his
    counsellors, was thought useful.
    Note:
    "To all Christian People to whom these presents shall come. JOSIAH,son
    and Heyer, of Josiah otherwise called Wamputuck, late Sachem of the
    Massachusetts Country in New England, Sendeth Greeting:--Know ye thatI
