Roger1 Terrill of Milford

COPYRIGHT by Nancy Tyrrel Theodore - - - Information available on the DOR website. http://www.DOR-terrill.net

First published 29 April 2007 by NTT on her blog. Revised 14 Dec. 2009 (see revision history).

Although Roger1 Terrill's roots in the Old World aren't proven, he did leave some record of his life in New England.

In 1639, Roger1 was admitted to the Milford society along with eight other planters who were not "settled in the church." He rectified that status on 25 July 1644 when he joined the First Congregational Society at Milford, and Abigail "wife of Brother Roger Terrill" joined on 3 November of the same year. Although difficult to read from the copied microfilm record (LDS #1012263 Milford Congressional Church Records 1640-1675) below is from the surviving record for the year 1644:

Roger1 and Abigail had eleven recorded children:

1 - JOHN2, baptized August 1644 (more in a later post on this ancestor of Monroe County, IA Tyrrels).

2 - ABIGAIL2, baptized August 1644. By 1660 she had married William Tyler. They had twelve children born in Milford including twins born in 1670 who died "soon."

3 - HANNAH2, baptized August 1645. She married John Skeels of Woodbury, CT and they had their first child of record in November 1678. As a younger woman, in 1670, she had a "natural child" by Robert Hudson of Rye, New York. Hannah and John's first child, born in Woodbury, died young, but she had six other children. She died 11 November 1730.

4 - SAMUEL2, baptized 31 October 1647. He settled in Brookhaven, Long Island, NY and raised a family.

5 - ROGER2, baptized 20 January 1649/50, was a Founder of Woodbury, CT and is listed as a signer of Woodbury's Fundamental Articles in 1673. He joined the church there in 1676. He fathered seven recorded children. He died 17 April 1722.

6 - JOSEPH2, baptized in 1652, had "defective understanding." He died in 1689, or when about 37 years of age.

7 - MARY2, born 12 February 1653, baptized 2 March 1654, and died 3 May 1654 when only a little over a year old.

8 - EPHRAIM2, born 8 April 1655, baptized 15 April 1655 and died "soon."

9 - THOMAS2, born 23 October 1656. He removed to Elizabethtown, New Jersey, then to East Hampton, Long Island in 1688, and then Essex county, New Jersey in 1694 where he died in 1725. He was married twice, his first wife the daughter of Robert Dayton. His second wife was Mary Hampton. Thomas, a blacksmith, named four sons in his will.

10 - DANIEL2, born 1 March 1659/60, and died 10 June 1727. He remained in Milford and married first Mary, daughter of Thomas and Ruth (Clark) Fitch, and second, Abigail, daughter of Henry and Lydia (Brown) Bristol. He fathered ten recorded children, all by Mary Fitch.

11 - ELEAZER2, born 20 September 1662 and died the same day.

Roger1 died in either late 1681 or early 1682 as there is an inventory of his estate dated 22 February 1682, taken by John Beard, John Sherman and Samuel Clark. It totaled 701 pounds, a considerable amount at the time. Here is one of two pages from his inventory so you can see how extensive the listing:

Name spelled Tyrrell.

The Tyrrell name has 68 different varia

The Tyrrell name has 68 different variant names. It originally comes from Sire de Tirel (950 A.D.) from the Castle of Ralf near Paris, France; to England; then to Ireland. In Ireland the name was introduced into the country in the 12th century by Anglo-Norman settlers named "Tirial". The name possibly meant "stubborn", deriving from old French, "Tirel", which meant one that pulls against the reins. The towns of Tyrrells Pass in County Westmeath and Kildare indicate that the main Septs, or group descended from a common ancestor, were located in the Province of Leinster and it is here that the majority of descendents can be found. Branches off the Tyrrell line can be traced back to Medieval Kings of England, Scotland, Normandy, to Charlemagne and back to Biblical times. The Tyrrell Coat of Arms has three bands across the shield, which signifies military belts or girdles of Honour. The silver color symbolizes peace and sincerity; red symbolizes military fortitude. The lion emblem means deathless courage. There are also seven Maltese crosses on the shield. The Maltese Cross is an eight-pointed cross formed by four arrowheads joined at their points. The badge of the Knights of Malta was worn as an order of chivalry, and was also known as the Cross of Malta. Roger Terrill was the son of Roger Terrill, who was born in 1586 in Middlesex County, England. He came from a long line of Terrill's dating back to Thomas of Heron, England, born about 1405. He may also have an ancestral connection to Sir Walter Tirel, bow carrier, to King William I, the Conquer. Roger Terrill came to the New World on the ship, Lyon, arriving in Boston in September, 14, 1632 from Nanzy, Essex, England. He remained in Boston and Roxbury for a few years. In the summer of 1637, he visited western Connecticut, probably with or following Capt. Underhill's Company in the Pequot War. He returned to Boston in the fall and in the spring of 1638, after paying off his indenture in Boston and nearb y Roxbury, Massachusetts, Roger moved to New Haven, Connecticut with the New Haven Company. He remained in the Hereford quarters of that company until Aug. 28, 1639, when he went with the Milford Company and helped found the colony at Milford. He reached Milford on Sep. 1, 1639. He was accorded the rights of Freeplanter of that colony, having been on of eight who were refused those rights by the New Haven Company at the meeting in Doc. Newman's barn on July 4, 1639, since he was not a member of the Puritan Church, but still belonged to the Church of England. In 1639 he married Abigail Ufford, daughter of Thomas Ufford and Isabel Brayan, in the Milford church, where Roger's surname is spelled, Terrell. Roger became an after planter and admitted to the Milford church on July 28, 1644. His oldest children were baptized in August and his wife, Abigail, was admitted on Nov. 3, 1644. Roger Terrill's property in Milford was on lot #49 and consisted of 2 acres, 3 rods, and 20 poles and was on the present West Town St. Roger Terrill became a man of importance in the church and in the colony. He was prominent in the affairs of the colony and the church until his death in 1692. It is on record that before he had joined the church, he was sent by the heirs of an estate to defend their interests before the New Haven court, saying that Roger Terrill was, "A man of very fit parts for the work." The Memorial Bridge over the Wapawaug River bears the first settlers of the town and includes the names of Roger Terrill and his wife, Abigail Ufford. The Ufford families came from Liverpool on the ship "Lyons". Three additional generations stayed in Connecticut with Daniel b. 1658, George b. 1703 and Ruth b. 1722.
