Notes |
- BIOGRAPHY: History:In 1649 he moved to Poquonic where he had purchased land from the Indians. Being six miles from Windsor, there was no protection from danger. From the records, we find this family was never molested. Probably because he dealt honestly and fairly with the Indians, they respected him. George was made a freeman in 1669, was a large landowner and a man greatly respected. He was a sturdy active citizen but did not aspire to political office. Records show that in 1676 he contributed to the poor of other colonies; in 1679 he had a warehouse on the north side of the River near the ferry; and in 1685 he was mentioned in Windsor patent. He engaged in trade with England and the West Indies. BIOGRAPHY: Estate: His estate is given in Hartford Probate VII:108; IX:10,11; Manwaring II:70. Inventory was taken October 2, 1704. An agreement made by the widow and children for the settlement of the estate is recorded. This agreement also mentions his granddaughter Abigail Griswold and daughters Mary Cooley and Deborah Moore.
