In these catalogues we have a large proportion of the promi nent and influential men in Middletown, Cromwell. Chatham and Portland. Some of these are mentioned in the address and some in the notes. Robert Warner, one of the first settlers, held many offices of trust. He died April 10. 1680. Many were in the commission of the peace, as appears from lists of justices already given. not a few held their commissions hy successive and long continued appointments. Jabez Hamlin and Seth Wetmore were justices of the Quorum for Hartford county he- fore Middlesex County was formed. John Hamlin and Jabez Hamlin were judges of that court as stated in the sketches of them. Lemuel Storrs, Ebenezer White. Seth Overton and F. G. Comstock were justices of the Quorum for Middlesex County. John Stewart has been a judge of the County court. and a rep- Presentative in the Congress of the United States. A large num- ber of the representatives were honored with miltary commiss- ions and their titles are very generally given on public records, while the people were exposed to attacks from the Indiars and to colonial wars. High military titles appear on records in the Revolution and years afterwards. In early times military non passed slowly from one grade to another. So Nathaniel White, the patriarch of the Upper Houses is titled ensign in 1067, lieu- tenant 1679, and captain in Oct. 1690.
The absence of the Author of this "Address," his distant residence and the consequent difficulty in having the proofs critically read, have oc- casioned some errors, especially in dates. The publisher therefore, boing fully aware of the value of accuracy in this respect, has been induced to append the following list of
ERRATA.
