3This was an old " Flax Hill" family. Flax was grown all about the neighborhood, and in the days of Tryon's British occupancy of Eaton's Neek, Long Island, the English soldiers who were wont to rum- mage and raid the Connecticut coast strip twixt "Shippan" and "Compo," made their marauding visits as far inland as the Byxbies' and Woods' Flax Hill neighborhood. "Dap," the familiar name (given, it is thought, by a grandchild) by which the first Nor- walk Byxbee (John) was known, lived peacefully immediately west of the only store, in 1899, on Flax Hill. He was well known near Eastham, Mass., from which vicinity he came to Norwalk and planted him- self on Flax Hill. The Wood's were neighbors who raised fine poultry, a faet which came to the Long Island depredators' attention. These military men made Mr. Wood an offer for his " game," but he was disinclined to consider it. The temptation was too strong for the English, who, consequently, paid a nocturnal call to the poultry yard on the "Hill." The next morning the proprietor discovered his loss, but found the following explanatory note, to which was attached British coin, both note and coin being tied to the neck of one of his coveted brood :
"Deaeon Wood, your geese are good, And stealing is but slander ; We've bought your geese for a penny a-piece And paid it to the gander."
The Wood's seem to have originated in Jamaica, L. I. "Deacon" Wood was evidently a descendant of Jonathan Wood1st, who brought the name to Nor- walk. Dolly Wood, wife of Nathaniel Raymond (son of Eliakim1st) was possibly the daughter of Electious Wood. Said Eleetious had two daughters, Dolly and Elizabeth, to whom he refers in 1775.

THE SAMUEL CANNON HOME.
See pages 304 and 419.
The old style fence above, was built, after the Lockwood purchase, by William Craw, the father of the late Martin S. Craw. The street wall, which fronts the grounds, is incident-memorable from the fact that Hon. James Goodwin, who died the most opulent citizen, it is probable, of Hartford, and father of the present Rev. Francis M. and James Goodwin of that city, took, years agone, a perilous leap over this same masonry. He was riding through Norwalk, en route for New York, and reaching Mill Hill at dusk mistook the private Cannon-Lockwood road for the public highway. Reining his steed suddenly to the left the horse plunged over the steep, carrying everything with him. Mr. Goodwin recovered himself in a moment and arrived in the metropolis in excellent time. Hon. James Goodwin was an intimate of Henry T. Morgan, Cashier under Henry Belden of the Fairfield County Bank, Norwalk.

It is a tradition (page 127) that Washington on one of his Boston trips suggested or actually made a re-survey of some part of Flax Hill. There seems, however, to be no evi- dence of this.
THE SAMUEL CANNON HOME. "MILL HILL" CREST.
This Norwalk family seat facing the harbor overlooking "The Bridge" and having for its "vicinity" the Dr. Uriah Rogers and Hezekiah Belden estates, was the home of Samuel and Sarah (Belden) Cannon. Samuel Cannon, as was true of his "Commodore" father, was stirring, and with his wife, who was of Nor- walk's staunchest blood (Haynes, Bartlett, Betts and Belden) headed a strong house- hold. "Commodore" Cannon would sometimes go as far as the Oblong to place his grain or other orders, and his son Samuel probably knew the widely stretching Norwalk ter- ritory as well. The plate-portrayed Mill Hill home was a spot dear to the Cannon children. LeGrand, the only son, appeared to possess the ardor temperament of his Cannon grandfather and Belden uncle. Norwalk saw but little of him, as in his younger manhood he established himself in Troy, N. Y., where his wife's relations were a power. Mrs. LeGrand Cannon (see page 272) was a granddaughter of one of the proprietors of what is still known as the " Rock House Woods," a large forest-stretch extending westerly and northwesterly of the station known as "Cannons " on the Danbury division of the Consolidated road. Job Burlock held, with the DeForests, a large land tract in this section. He was loyal to the king and compelled, conse- quently, during the war troubles, to reside elsewhere. He evidently returned from the prov- inces to Norwalk to look after his property, and here, so runs the Layton testimony, fell dead at his door step in the romantic district referred to. Mrs. Job Burlock appeared afterward at St. Johns, New Brunswick, "with one child." She, it is believed, married, second, an English officer, and the whilom maiden of the diversified Norwalk Pimpewaugh Wold disap- pears from the history of her native town. Her name, however, (and that of her foreign hus- band, page 272) is legibly inscribed upon our records.
LeGrand Cannon departed from the Mill Hill hearthstone and identified himself with living issues in his adopted Troy. Thither a number of his Norwalk relatives had already gone, and there he founded an influential home. He was an incorporator of the Troy Water Works, a member of the first board of directors of the Renssalaer and Saratoga Railroad, a di- rector of the New York and Albany Railroad Company, the head of the LeGrand Cannon Roll- ing Mill, and a prominent Trojan generally. The Cannon pew was close to the chancel in the Third Street stone St. Paul's church, the elegant damask hangings of which pew found, singularly enough, their way at last to Norwalk.
John Pintard (page 303), second cousin of LeGrand Cannon, left Norwalk somewhat prior to the date of the latter's birth, but had so far life-succeeded as that when the young LeGrand was only five years old his cousin in the second degree endorsed to the amount of one million dollars the notes of the husband of Lady Kitty Stirling (see page 19). This was a blow to Pintard, whose Norwalk relatives must have wondered at his ability to make good the Duer loss. He gave up everything ; but rose again to a pinnacle, and has the proud

record of being one of the founders of the New York free school system, to which he gave the sum of ten thousand dollars. His father, the son of Alderman Pintard, bought, Septem- ber 15, 1758, a Norwalk home site on the opposite side of the street from the grounds of John Cannon1st.
Colonel LeGrand B. Cannon, son of LeGrand of Troy, and grandson of Samuel of Norwalk, was a Norwalk school lad (see page 171) and himself and companions were large contributors to the happy side of Norwalk school experience. The Colonel chose New York city for a residence, where, possessed of abilities and fitted for an alert life, he has been a citizen of large interests and influence, while the nation will ever stand debtor to him by reason of his loyal, valuable and memorable services in the days of the American Civil War. His sisters (pages 272 and 412) were ladies of prominence, his son (page 412) was of social and skillful rank, and his nephew, Edward Courtland Gale, who married Marie, daughter of John I. and Mary Mabbett (Warren) Thompson (page 277), was not of the Norwalk Gale family of earlier days, but a descendant of Dr. Samuel Gale of honored memory of Troy, N. Y. The father of E. C. Gale (E. Thompson Gale) was one of the best known Trojans of his generation and his mother was a Norwalk DeForest-Lambert descendant (page 279). Mr. Gale, born October 28, 1861, is a graduate, class of 1883, of the Renssalaer Polytechnic Insti- tute of Troy. He married, 24th April, 1888, as before mentioned a daughter of John I., son of John L. Thompson of Troy. His children are Alfred Warren, born January 2, 1892, and Harold DeForest, born January 18, 1896.
After the Cannon use of the Mill Hill home the property became the purchase of Colonel Buckingham St. John Lockwood. M Mrs. Colonel Lockwood was a niece of Mrs. Cannon and the handsome spot seemed naturally to fall to the Lockwoods, who have pre- served its old reputation. It has been a New England hearth of merit, and as it stands river- facing and elm o'erhung it to-day presents an imposing appearance, and is one of this town's fondest domiciles (pages 299 and 304).
QUINTARD.
Isaac1st and Jeanne (Fume) Quintard were married in the Chapel of the Gaunt, Bristol, England, on November 26, 1693. The groom had resided "near Lusignau in Poitou in France," and the two were married by M. Descariac, pastor of the French Church in Bristol, the fruit of the union being :

On May 18, 1731, said Pierre or Peter1st was admitted a freeman and recorded as a goldsmith. He came to Norwalk in about 1637-8, and made several land purchases, appearing to select for his home seat the meadows somewhat north of the present Marshall Street in South Norwalk. His children were :

1Stephen, born October 24, 1771, son of Reuben and Phebe (Tuttle) Mott, married Clarissa, daughter of Peter2nd and Ruth Quintard. Mrs. Reuben Mott was from New Canaan.

Langdon, son of Stephen Mott, married (see page 275) Harriet, daughter of Captain Joshua and Margaret Bouton. Their son, Charles B., married Emily A., daughter of Edwin and Eliza (Smith) Hoyt (see page 359), and their daughter Harriet married Henry, son of Dr. Emmery C. Bissell of Nor- walk.

He was a son of JacobIst and Grace (Parks) Jennings (see page 43), and had a sister Anna, who married, first, a Munson, and second Edwin Van Antwerp1st, whose son, Edwin Van Antwerp2nd formerly owned the East Avenue property afterward occupied by Charles B. White of New York. Anna Jennings married, third, Hezekiah Whitlock, the father by another wife of Mrs. James Stevens (Fanny Whitlock), and of her brother Lewis Whitlock, for may years a kecper of the Norwalk Island lighthouse.
2 James Quintard2nd lived in the last house, east, on the north side of the present Marshall Street in South Norwalk. He there kept an "Inn" which bordered the old "Quntard Dock." This dock in the days of the Vanderbilt-Peck steamboat opposition was the landing place of the Vanderbilt boat. The Peck line moored its boat at the "Day Dock," foot of the present Washington Street. It was because Messrs. Vanderbilt and Drew failed to influence the Norwalk stage coach proprietors to first drive their vehicles to the Quintard pier before procceding with passengers for the Peck line that Mr. Drew determined to plant a coach line of his own. Horses and car- riages were brought from the city and the Vanderbilt patrons were provided for.
The Quintard Inn was the only public house at

There was a broad open space in Mr. Quintard's day on the south side of Marshall Street. Absalom Day built a pottery not far from the east end of said street, and just south of the present Consolidated traeks. James Quintard3rd son of James2nd, resided where now stands the residence of E. A. Woodward, and his dwelling was one of the fine modelled homes of that day. Opposite this house (Pardee residenee of 1896) lived the father of the late Goold Benediet, for so many years the faithful South Norwalk station agent of the Consolidated road. James Quintard3rd was engaged in the pottery business on the site of the 1896 Hateh, Bailey & Co. establishment, having Henry Chichester1st as a partner.

Her two uncles, Ebenezer and Ephraim Smith, married the two daughters, Elizabeth and Is- abel, of John Bartlett, and through her great grand- father, Kiliab Smith, she, with Mary Lyon, the foun- dress of the Mount Holyoke, Mass., Seminary, was co-inheritor of the Lieutenant Samuel Smith blood. Her brother Noah was the "Smith Island" Norwalk harbor resident and her niece Betsey was Mrs. Absa- lom Day, to whose husband the Methodist Elder handed ten dollars with the charge that Mr. Day should see the sum multiplied nntil an amount suffi- cient to build a church was raised. Mr. Day complied with the command, and with John Hoyt, Noah and Matthew Wilcoxon (Wilcox), Ebenezer Crofut and Jesse Warren, bought from Holmes Saunders, August 1, 1815, the lot whereon Norwalk's first Methodist Episcopal Church was already built (between Febru- ary 16 and August 1, 1815).
