THE BISSELL FAMILY.
(The Ozias Bissell Branch of Bolton, Conn. Sce Family 1, p. 78; on p. SO erroneously assigned to Fam. 17.) BISSELL. [By Miss RUTH T. SPERRY of E. W. Hill, for GEORGE F. BISSELL, Esq., of Chicago, Ill.]
John + (Capt.) (John,3 Samuel," John 1), carly at Bolton, where he had land set out to him in the first apportionment of lown lands, 1722; was selectman in 1721 and for many subsequent years. He was established and confirmed to be Lieutenant of the company or trainband in the town of Bolton in Oct., 1722 (Col. Rec., vol. v, 330); Jater he was Captain, but after his appointment to a Justice of the Peace in May, 1:39, he was more frequently designated Esq. He represented the town in the Assembly and was in many ways a prominent man. John Bissell of Coventry (Fam. 17), was app. Capt. of the 2d Co. in that town in 1738 (Col. Ree., viii, p. 191), and as there were then two men of the same name and title res. in adjoining towns, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between the two when the name appears on State records. Then, too, the whole region was sparsely settled, and town and par- ish lines frequently changed. Later we find Ozias Bissell, though a resident of Bolton (see B. Lund Rec.), chosen lieutenant of a company in (now East) Hartford. lohn Bissell's home-Jot in Bolton was at Quarryville, and there he and his wife were buried. We could not find any record of his est. in the Hartford Prob. Office. Capt. John m. 22 Feb., 1710/11, Hannah (dan. of Samuel) Denslow, who was b. 14 Nov., 1690 ( 1)".
