Notes |
- Joshua Huntington was admitted to the church in Norwich, CT at the same time with his wife, in 1727. He seems to have been a very active business man. He was one of the most forward in commencing the new settlement at the Landing. He was allowed to take up "twenty-five square upon the water on the west side of Rocky Point, on the north side of Lieut. Lathrop's grant, if it be there to be had; not prejudicing the conveniency to be laid out by James Huntington and Daniel Tracy." He was highest on the list of subscribers to the bridge built in 1737, over the Shetucket to unite Norwich and Preston, an enterprise in which none but moneyed men in that day could engage. In his successful business career, commenced that family distinction and wealth, which, at the opening of the Revolution, had placed his two surviving children at the head of the aristocracy, even of their own aristocratic town. He died on 8/26/1745.
