- Pg. 72
- (I) Children of Samuel Prudden2 (son of Peter1) and Grace Judson were :
- I. Peter3 born July 28, 1671, died May 19, 1705. He is said to have studied for the ministry and to have been drowned.
- II. Samuel3, born Aug. 10, 1673 (no date of death given, probably an infant).

- (3) IV. Samuel3, born June, 1677, lived in Milford, died Oct. 17, 1742, married Hannah Clark, daughter of Thomas Clark whose mother was a Gilbert.

- fied with the Second church in Milford as Peter Prudden's was with the First, which for a hundred years remained the only church in the town. In 1737, a dissatisfied minority formed a new church under the leadership of Ephraim Strong, Job's brother-in-law. So violent was the opposition, that Job Prudden, who had graduated from Yale College in 1734 and was invited to become their first pastor, was obliged to go to New Jersey for ordination.
