Richard Webb’s wife was Elizabeth ____, widow of Seth Grant. Elizabeth died at Norwalk, 24 Jan 1680/1 and a distribution was made to a daughter of Seth Grant in March 1681.[15]

Richard and his wife had no recorded children. Richard Webb of New Haven and Stamford was not his son.[16]

He had no children, but took Sarah, youngest dau. of the Rev. Samuel Stone and brought her up.

Thomas Butler, husband of Sarah[11] Stone, claimed a child's portion, on behalf of his wife, of the estate. Sarah was the daughter of Rev. Samuel Stone and had lived with Webb after her father's death.[12][13][14]

From the 1st book of Grants and Deeds:

In 1677 his widow, Elizabeth Webb, employed her "Beloved Brother, John Gregory, to make an agreement with Thomas Butler, of Hartford, and his wife," they "laying claime to the estate of her husband, Richard Webb, deceased." Widow Elizabeth Webb d. Jan. 24, 1680."

"Elissabeth Webb, the widow of Richard Webb, formerly of Norwalke, deceased the twenty fowreth of January, 1680."[19]


Origins

  1. Samuell Stone, baptized 13 Sep 1632 in Towcester, Northamptonshire[6], possibly died young
  2. John Stone b. say 1634 attended Harvard and Cambridge, not named in his father's will, so probably died before 1663 and without issue.
  3. Rebekah Stone, born about 1636, m. Timothy Nash
  4. Mary Stone, born about 1638, m. Joseph Fitch, settled in East Windsor
  5. Sarah Stone, born about 1640, m. Thomas Butler of Hartford
