JOHN ELDERKIN. Our acquaintance with John Elderkin begins at Lynn in 1637, when he was about twenty-one years of age. From thence he may be traced to Boston, Dedham, Reading, Providence, New London, and at last to Norwich, which was probably his latest home and final resting-place.

In a deposition taken in 1672 he gives his age, fifty- six, and says that he became an inhabitant of New London the same year that Mr. Blinman and his company came there to dwell. We find a grant of house-lot recorded to him at that place in October, 1650, in anticipation of his coming.

Elderkin was a house-carpenter and millwright, crafts which in the circumstances of the country were better than a patent of nobility in gaining for him a welcome reception, esteem, and influence. In the places where he sojourned he built mills, meeting- houses, probably also bridges, and the better sort of

meeting-house, constructed two or three saw-mills in the neighborhood, and occasionally tried his hand in building vessels.

SAMUEL, LATHROP, or Lothrop, as the name was then generally spelled (with the pronunciation Lot- rop), was a son of the Rev. John Lothrop, who had preached in London to the first Independent or Con- gregational Church organized in England, as succes- sor to Mr. Jacob, under whose ministry the church was formed. The congregation was broken up by ecclesiastical rigor, and Mr. Lothrop suffered an im- prisonment of two years' duration, from which he was released only on condition of his leaving the country. He came to America in 1634, and was the first min- ister both of Scituate and of Barnstable.

Samuel was his second son, and probably about fourteen years of age when the family emigrated. His marriage is recorded at Barnstable, in his father's handwriting : " My sonn Samuel and Elizabeth Seud- der marryed att my house, Nov. 28, 1644."

Samuel Lothrop was a house-carpenter, and found occupation for a time in Boston, from whence he went to New London, then called Pequot, in the summer of 1648. Just twenty years later he removed to Nor- wich, where, after a residence of more than forty years, he died, Feb. 29, 1700.

Col. Simon Lothrop, third son of Samuel (2) and Hannah (Adgate) Lothrop, born in 1689, was a man of more than ordinary local renown. He commanded one of the Connecticut regiments in the successful expeditions against Annapolis and Louisburg, and was valued for his judgment in council as well as for his gallant bearing in the field. At one period he was left for a considerable time in the chief command of the fortress at Cape Breton.

Col. Lothrop was of a prudent, thrifty disposition, fond of adding land to land and house to house. There was a doggerel song that the soldiers used to sing after their return from Capertoon that alludes to this propensity.

Col. Lothrop died Jan. 25, 1775, aged eighty-six. He was an upright man, zealous in religion, faithful in training up his family, and much respected and esteemed for his abilities and social virtues. His wife was a Separatist, and he carefully abstained from any interference with her predilections, but was accus- tomed every Sunday to carry her in his chaise up to her meeting, half a mile beyond his own, then return to his own place of worship, and after the service was over go up town again after his wife.

Col. Lothrop was the father of Simon and Elijah Lathrop, who were prominent inhabitants of the town, and for a long period proprietors of the mills at Nor- wich Falls.

The following is a list of inhabitants that came in after the first settlers and appear as residents of the town plot, or as grantees on the commons and out- lands. The earliest date is given at which the name has been noticed, but in some instances the person

may have been upon the ground for several previous years :1

In partial redress of his grievances, the Legislature of Connecticut granted him, in Octo- ber, 1677, one hundred acres of land near the bounds of Norwich.

Nathaniel Armstrong was a grantee of the town in 1679, and Benjamin in 1682.

HISTORY OF NEW LONDON COUNTY, CONNECTICUT.

Joseph Decker and wife Thankful were received into fellowship with the church in 1714. They re- moved to Windham.

Capt. Robert Denison, adm. 1718. His farm of five hundred acres, conveyed to him by Owaneco, with the consent of the Legislature, in 1710, lay upon the border of Mashipaug, or Gardner's Lake, and was then supposed to fall within the Nine-mile Square. He began his improvements at that place in 1716, but when the bounds of the town were more accurately defined the greater part of his farm, in- cluding his family residence, was found to lie within the limits of New London North Parish, and after 1720 his connection with Norwich ceased.

Capt. Denison died in 1737, and was interred in a cemetery prepared by himself on his farm, where a group of Denison graves, with granite curbstones marked with initials and dates, still remain.

His son, the second Capt. Robert Denison, was an officer in the French war, and removed to Nova Scotia.

John Dennis, a resident at the Landing in 1739.

The cattle-mark of Abraham Dowd was recorded in 1723. He was probably the son of John Dowd, of Guilford, born in 1697.

Thomas Edgecombe, born in New London, 1694, settled in Norwich before 1720, and there died Sept. 16, 1745. His first wife was Katherine Copp; his second, Esther Post, who survived him but a few months.

The sons of Thomas Edgecombe by his first wife were Thomas, John, Jonathan, and Samuel.

Thomas died in Norwich in April, 1755.

John was a soldier in the expedition against Cape Breton, and there died, after the surrender in 1746, at the age of twenty.

Jonathan, a seaman, was taken by a Spanish pri- vateer, Aug. 3, 1752; carried first to Campeachy, and from thence to Old Spain, where he was kept confined for several months, but at length picked the lock of his prison, escaped, and reached a French port in safety. Here he found an English vessel, on board of which he worked his passage to England, but had scarcely touched the island when he fell into the hands of a press-gang and was enrolled on board of a man-of-war. After a year's service he contrived to escape, and through various other adventures finally reached home Nov. 30, 1754. He afterwards settled in Vermont.

Samuel, the fourth son, was Deacon Samuel Edge- combe, of Groton, Conn., who died Aug. 14, 1795, aged sixty-five.

Samuel Fairbanks, a resident in 1722.

Samuel Fales, adm. 1708; received into communion with the church in 1711; died 1733. He was son of Mr. James Fales, of Dedham, and son-in-law to John Elderkin. His inventory included a more than ordi- nary number of religious books. It is probable that he was a theological student.

Moses Fargo came from New London about 1690, and in 1694 obtained a grant of land "on the hill above the rock where his house stands." He was on the roll of 1702, and died about 1726. Name often written Firgo.

Verdict of a jury upon the body of Gregory Field : " Found dead in Shoutucket River, in Norwich, 29 April, 1710."

Fillmore. John, son of John Fillmore, was born at Ipswich, March 18, 1702. His father was a mariner, and died at sea about the year 1711. His mother's maiden name was Abigail Tilton. She married for her second husband, Robert Bell, and removed with him to Norwich West Farms. Her son, John Fill- more, returning from sea, was united Nov. 9, 1724, to Mary Spiller, of Ipswich, and on the 28th of the same month made a purchase of lands in Norwich, where he planted his hearth-stone and spent the re- mainder of his days.

Some extraordinary incidents are connected with his previous history. While out on a fishing voyage he had been captured by a noted pirate of the name of Phillips, and compelled to perform duty as the helmsman of the freebooting craft; but after nine months of this odious service, he combined with sev- eral other prisoners that had been subsequently taken, and at a concerted signal, making a desperate attack upon their captors, they killed and threw overboard the captain and a number of his crew, disabled the rest, took possession of the vessel, and navigated her to Boston, where they arrived May 3, 1724, and gave their prisoners up to justice. Three of them were executed in Boston, and three sent to England, where they suffered at Execution Dock. The gun, sword, tobacco-box, buckles, and rings of the captain of the corsair were awarded by the Court of Admiralty to young Fillmore, as spoils won by his valor and de- cision. A part of these articles are still preserved as relies by his descendants.

He was subsequently known as Capt. John Fill- more, of Norwich West Farms, a man of probity, and a useful citizen, a member of the church, and captain of a military company. He was three times married, and his will mentions fourteen surviving children. He died Feb. 22, 1777, aged seventy-five years.

Nathaniel, one of the sons of his second wife (Dor- cas Day, of Pomfret), born in 1740, married Hepzi- bah Wood, and settled at Bennington, Vt., when that part of the country was new and unsubdued. He served as a soldier in the French war and in the war for independence, and died at Bennington in 1814. His son Nathaniel (2), born in 1771, married Phebe Millard, of Bennington, and he and his brothers, fol- lowing the example of their ancestors, removed into the wilderness, and settled in Western New York, where they became farmers, and in the course of time clerks, teachers, justices, and members of the Assem- bly. This Nathaniel (2) was the father of Millard

extensively known and highly esteemed. The sudden stroke that swept him into eternity resounded through the country with startling emphasis.

The wife of Capt. Hough was Sarah Post, of Nor- wich. He had a farm in New Concord Society, the land being an original grant from the town in pay- ment for building a school-house. His youngest son, Jabez, born in 1702, inherited this farm, and there died, Jan. 24, 1725, only seventeen days after his mar- riage with Anne Denison, of New London.
