Daniel ANDREWS [1] |
- He lived near the Wethersfield and Farmington town lines, and about the time of his marriage, that part of Farmington was constituted a parish and called "Great swamp"; the church being organized in 1712; and its record says: "Daniel Andrews joined us by letter from Hartford Church 1718." His house was where Philo Webster's now (1808) stands, on the summit of the hill, east of the Hartford and New Haven turnpike. He and his brother John gave a bond of 50 pounds to Newington, 1720, for liberty to join the Great Swamp Society. Others of their neighbors were probably included in the list of those bought off, but only these two signed the note. Daniel Andrews, John root andSamuel Bronson Jr. were a SpecialCommittee to put galleries in the Meeting House of Great Swamp Society 1720, which duty was fully and promptly performed. He was buried in Christian Lane Cemetery; a red sand-stone shows that his body lies toward the south-west corner. His estate settled by probate at Hartford; inventory amounted to 104 pounds, 16s. 0d.; presented Oct., 1748. [1]
