Name:
"The Talcott Pedgree": He came over from England with his parents and sister Mary (who afterwards married the Rev. John russell) in the ship Lyon, in 1632. He resided in Hartford; was made an ensign in 1650, a captain in 1660; was elected a deputy or assistant magistrate, of the Colony of Connecticut, before it was joined to New Haven, May 18, 1654, and Treasurer to succeed his father, May 17, 1660, which office he held till 1676. He was one of the patentees named in the Charter of Charles the First, granted to Connecticut April 20, 1662; which document was entrusted to Wyllis, TALCOTT,and Allyn for safe-keeping. In 1676, on the breaking out of the Philip war, he resigned the office of treasurer and was appointed to the command of the army with the rank of major, and in June of that year went into the field at the head of the "standing army" of Connecticut, accompanied by 200 Mohigan and "Pequot Indians." In the various battles with the Indians in which he was engaged, he was ALWAYS victorious, and obtained great renown as an "Indian fighter." Many of his official papers are on record in the Secretary of State's office at hartford, and are interesting relics of the memorable Philip war. Early in the war he was promoted to the rank of Lieut.-Colonel. In March 1662 the General Court granted to him and to John Allyn 600 acres of upland and 100 acres of meadow land, to be laid out in Hammonaset (Killingsworth).
