BIOGRAPHY: Bir-Mar-Death-Ord; FGR Film # 1274379 It appears that a close relationship between the Mills and Humphreys families continued through sucessive generations and several Humphreys-Mills marriages are rec orded. Samuel Humphrey was a prominent and highly respected citizen of Simsbury. He removed with his father from Windsor about 1669 to Simsbury. At that time it was called " Massacoe". He was made Justice of the Peace in Hartford County by the General Assembly, May 1712, 1714, 1715 and 1716. He was Representative of Simsbury in the General Assembly in 1792, 1719, and 1722-1725. He earned the rank of Lieutenant about 1709\10. His commission was signed by Governor Saltonstall and was in the possession of one of his descendants as of 1883.

Notes:

BIOGRAPHY: "Having been given a grant of land in the new plantation, at that time called Massaco,(after 1670) Marys' father Simon took his family consisting of himself and wife Mary, children Mary, Hannah, John and Sarah, over the Talcott Mountains, to a new home in the undeveloped plantation, later named Simsbury, Connecticut. Michael Humphreys, father of Samuel, was also one of the early Grantees at Massaco. Mary and her future husband Samuel Humphreys, grew up in Simsbury under similar conditions, both experienceing the hardships of pioneer living, and the concern caused by the Indian hostilities to be followed by the burning of Simsbury on 26 March 1676 (History of Hartford County, 1633-1884 by J. Hammond Trumbull, Vol. II, p 342). Mary and her parents lived in Simsbury about five years before, in response to a town warning, caused by an expected Indian attack, the family returned to Windsor. On this return trip, Mary then about fourteen years of age, must have shared with her mother, the care of the six other children, all younger. It may have been after Mary's brother Simon Mills Jr. was born about 1678, that the Mills family went back to continue their residence in Simsbury. By this time it is assumed that a new house had been built. A short time after their return, probably 1680, Mary married Samuel Humphreys". BIOGRAPHY: About the time of their marriage, Mary's father gave land to his son-in-law, Samuel: "Saml Humphries House lott; Land in Simsbury...belonging to Saml Humphries..one parcell which he ye sd Saml Humphries have on his father mils; fer a House lot; which house lot is Scituate at wetoug...and is by estimation four accres one rodd and Tweenty perches be it more or les s..." BIOGRAPHY: It is thought that Samuel and Mary Humphreys lived in that part of Simsbury, east of the Farmington River, known as Weatogue Houses, and that their home lot may have adjoined that of Mary's brother Simon who, in accord with the final order of distribution inherited his father's home lot." BIOGRAPHY: On 6 July 1683, Mary's father died. Mary's share of her father's Estate signed for by her husband Samuel Humphreys, as given on the original papers, is itemized and reads, in part, as follows; To Samuel Humfrys Husband to Mary the eldest dayghter--a home lott; a cow.. a rug; a bedstead; one chest...two pewter; a great kettle... two smoothing Irons; a cradle... The value totaled 13 pounds, 16 shillins and 3 pence. BIOGRAPHY: Mary's mother married Samuel Bissell of Windsor and upon her death on 24 Jun 1718 read; "Group 1 unto my eldest daughter Mary the wife of Samuel Humphreys, my pillion 2 & to said Mary, & to My Daughters Hannah and Elizabeth all my waring cloaths to be divided equally amongst them thre". BIOGRAPHY: It appears that a close relationship between the Mills and Humphreys families continued through many generations, and several Humphreys-Mills marriages are recored. dl

Joseph Phelps, Jr. was the son of Joseph Phelps and Hannah Newton. He was born at Windsor, Connecticut, 20 Aug 1667. He married first Mary Collier, the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth (Sanford) Collier. She was born at Hartford, and died at Simsbury 13 Mar 1697.

He married second Sarah Case, 9th Nov 1699, the daughter of John and Sarah (Spencer) Case. She was born in Simsbury, 14th Aug 1676, where she died the 2nd of May 1704.

He married third, Mary Case, the daughter of Richard and Elizabeth Case; she was born at Simsbury, 1669 and died there 10th Sep 1757. She was a widow. Her will dated 13th Aug 1751, gives to her daughter Keziah, "Two suits of my clothes, viz.: My silk crape gown and my drugget gown and the petticoats that I used to wear with them, if not I give them to her daughter that tended her in her sickness, viz., daughter Lucy, and I give to her, my said daughter Keziah, or to her daughter Lucy as above, my quilted coat. All the rest of my Estate I do give and devise to my son David, and to my daughter Elizabeth, to be equally divided between them." Mr. Phelps does not refer to Keziah in his will, which probably indicates that she was a daughter of his wife Mary by her former husband.

Mr. Phelps settled in Simsbury, and was one of its most influential citizens. He held the office of Justice of the Peace for many years, and was elected to the General Assembly from 1709-1727, twenty-eight times; during this time the Legislature held two sessions each year.
