John HUNTINGTON [1] |
- John Huntington was from Windsor; was one of the petitioners for the town in May, 1713, though his name does not appear on the subsequent petitions. It is certain that he was of Windsor, January 14, 1719, for on that day he took a deed of John Ellsworth of a tract of land in Tolland containing three hundred acres. He had also a lot of land that was Christopher Huntington's, assigned him November 26, 1719. It is not certain when he moved to Tolland; it is certain, however, he became a resident of this town before April 16, 1723, as there is a record of his marriage on that day as follows: "April 16, 1723. Then was John Huntington of Tolland married to Thankful Warren of Windham."
John Huntington, Esq., died January 26, 1737, aged forty-six years. He was the second justice of the peace ever appointed for the town of Tolland, and he was the only justice from 1733 to his death. He was commissioned as ensign in October, 1723, on the first organization of the militia in Tolland; was one year the town-clerk, and two years selectman - departing this life at almost the commencement of his public usefulness.
