(The Savage Line).
Mrs. George Peck Ide (Mary Ella Savage) is a direct descendant of John Savage, who. settled in Middletown, Connecticut, in 1652. The earliest information concerning him is contained in the records of Hartford. Con- necticut, as follows: "John Savage of Hart- ford, was married to Elizabeth Dubbin ye. tenth day of febru; one thousand six hun- dred and fifty two." The name of his wife is Dublin in the Middletown land' records, but Dubbin in the marriage record. Whence John Savage came, where and when he landed in America is not known. As few be- sides Englishmen were then in New England it is hardly to be questioned that he came from England, landed in Massachusetts, and thence removed to Hartford. His will is signed John Savidge. but in the opening declaration Saucdg. In England the common spelling is Savage, in parts of France, Sauv- 'age, and in New England the records have the name Savadge, Savidge, Savige, Sauage, as well as Savage. Ile was "mayd free" May 18. 1654. In 1674 hc possessed one thou- sand two hundred and seven acres of land.
