Capt. Levi Baxter's great-grandfather, "came from England in the latter part of the 17th century, lived in Enfield, Connecticut on a farm," and that he was "killed by a gun."

Source: Francis (or John) Baxter's great-great-great-great-great-granddaughter, Katharine Newbury Manierre, noted this among her genealogical records c.1905.
