DESCENDANTS OF MATTHIAS HITCHCOCK BRANCH III.

Page 217. JOHN2 HITCHCOCK (Matthias1) son of Matthias Hitchcock of New Haven, Conn., was probably born in New Haven, for his father was at New Haven as early as June, 1639, at which time Matthias Hitchcock was one of the original signers of the "fundamental agreement" of the New Haven colony. John Hitchcock was one of the original proprietors of Wallingford, Conn., which town was founded in 1670. He married 1st, Jan. 18, 1670, Abigail Merriman, born April 18, 1654, daughter of Capt. Nathaniel Merriman, who was one of the first settlers of Wallingford. John Hitchcock's first three children were born in New Haven, 1671 to 1674; and he removed to Wallingford in 1676. He calls himself "landowner, yeoman or planter." He married 2d, Mary. The inventory of his estate shows that he owned some 183 acres in different lots and that his whole property amounted to ?302. In the settlement of the estate the widow is called Mary, and on Aug. 12, 1717, she appears as "Mary Clark, alias Hitchcock." In the will Nathaniel is called the eldest son. No mention is made in the division of property of Samuel, Elizabeth or Hannah, and they may have died; but apparently Elizabeth had married Daniel Loynes or Lines, and Hannah, John Lines his brother; for Wallingford records give, first, Sept. 29, 1708, a deed of land of John Hitchcock to his soninlaw, Daniel Loynes, and later John Loynes deeds land to his fatherinlaw John Hitchcock, part of which came to said John Loynes from his brother Daniel Loynes, and still later Feb. 10, 1709, John Hitchcock gives a piece of land to his soninlaw Daniel Lines. It also appears that the widow of John Lines was "Hannah." John Hitchcock died July 6, 1716. His widow Mary married April 18, 1717, Samuel Clark. Change Date: 18 Jan 2014 at 22:15:42
