DEATH 7 Jul 1689 (aged 39) Simsbury, Hartford County, Connecticut, USA

BURIAL Simsbury Cemetery

PLOT Older section near the entrance of the cemetery

John married Mary Watson, the daughter of Robert Watson and Mary Rockwell on March 20, 1671. Mary died on August 7, 1693 in Simsbury, Connecticut, but she has no grave marker near her husband.

John's marker has a death year of 1688, a year earlier than Town records give it. However, the probating of John's estate in 1689 would agree with the Town Records, so 1689 was used on his memorial.
