By 1693, Samuel Fox, a member of the Congregational church in New London, Connecticut and one of the most prosperous business men of the place, had married the widow Bathsheba Smith (daughter of John Rogers, head of the Rogerene Society) and adopted her faith. He was seen as being very influential in gaining more such followers, unless deterrent measures were soon taken. How long could the Congregational church be maintained, on its then present footing, if such a new birth as this man describes should be required before admission; aye, if any conversion other than turning from, or avoidance of, immoral practices be generally insisted upon?
On Sunday, February 25, 1694, Rev. John Rogers, head of the Rogerenes, was arrested in New London, Connecticut for "carting boards," and Samuel Fox "for catching eels on that holy day." Both were arraigned before the County Court then in session. It was the first arraignment of this kind since 1685. During these nine years, John Rogers and all of his Rogerene Society had been working upon the first day of the week.
In 1693 Bathsheba (Rogers) Fox moved to the North Parish, to a place called Fox's Mills, from the mills owned and carried on by her husband, Samuel Fox.
The esteem and affection in which Bathsheba was held by her husband, Samuel Fox, may be estimated by the fact that he not only gave valuable lands to her sons by Richard Smith in her lifetime, but, although he had married again, left by will, sixteen years after her death, to her sons by the name of Smith, yet living (James and John), £40 each, and to her three daughters by Richard Smith, £10 each.
