EBENEZER FINCH was born in Branford, Conn., in 1749; m.

The house still stands, having been converted into a tobacco barn, and is one of the oldest in the town. It was repaired by Mr. Finch seventy-six years ago, and at that time it was considered one of the oldest then standing. He died Sept. 4, 1825. If his father's name was Ebenezer, as is supposed, who was the son of DANIEL, who was the son of NATHANIEL, it will be seen that a common head for these two branches of the family is found in the last named.

FROST.
SAMUEL FROST was born about 1701, tradition says in England; but he was engaged in the French and Indian War, and probably in some capacity visited England, for his son David was born there. He mar- ried in Wallingford, March 21, 1733, Naomi, daughter of Edward and Mary (Thorp) Fenn, she born May 10, 1712. He was accustomed to speak of his friends in England, and told his son David of property that he was to inherit there. He died at his son's residence, on Wol- cott Mountain, Nov. 14, 1800. At his funeral a Congregational min- ister made the opening prayer, a Baptist preached the sermon, a Meth- odist made the closing prayer, and an Episcopalian read the burial service. The deceased was an ardent Episcopalian, and his son David was an equally ardent Separate and Baptist. The date of his wife's death is not known.

DAVID.
DAVID FROST, son of Samuel (1), b. Sept. 15, 1743;1 m. Nov. 5, 1762, Mary, daughter of Joseph and Experience Beach, of Wallingford. His birth is thought to have occurred in England; but, if so, it was probably while his parents were there temporarily, for the Wallingford records show their marriage in that town. But there can be no doubt about some intimate connection with the old country, and all the tradi- tions and facts are best explained by supposing that they were tempo- rarily in England when David was born. David Frost lived on Wolcott Mountain, on the farm that still bears his name. He died Dec. 15, 1812, and his widow Feb. 6, 1819, she having been born Dec. 20, 1740.
