    Notes:

    Excerpt from "Our Ellsworth Ancestors": Josiah came to America in about 1646, at the age of seventeen. He made his home in Windsor, Connecticut. he was made a "Freeman" by court order, 21 May 1657. Previous to his marriage Josiah purchased property from Alex Alford (19 March 1654). He and his family lived at this place until it was sold to Cornelius Gillet in 1658 at the time Josiah purchased a lot fro William Phelps. Several years later, in 1664 or 1665, Josiah purchased from Joanna Davison the property which has coe to be known as the "Ellsworth Homestead." The place, also known as "Elmwood," was deeded in 1903 by the heirs of Chief Justice Oliver Ellsworth to the connecticut Daughters of the American Revolution, wh maintain the property as a colonial historical landmark and a museum of revolutionary relics....
    Josiah served frequently as a juror, according to the records of the Secretary of State, at Hartford. He served in other public offices of trust, which attest the character of the man. Josiah was the owner of thirteen different peces of land, totaling about two thousand acres. One of the three fort palisades at Windsor was known as the ELLSWORTH FORT. At this place women and chuldren sought refuge from possible Indian attacks. At the tie of his death, 20 August, 1689, att the age of sixty, Josiah was considered to be in the upper group financially. His will, probated 11 November, 1689, listed his property at about $3000. Judging fron the inventory of th estate, Josiah may have been a weaver.....

After sailing for seventy days the group arrived 30 May, 1630 at Nantasket, Massachusetts. The party possibly settled just south of Boston. They named the area Dorchester. It was later incorporated into greater Boston.
