  • Notes 
    • From Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathrop Family in this country, p. 59-60 states:
      "William, born in Norwich, Sept. 20, 1688, and married Dec. 18, 1712, Sarah, daughter of Dea. Simon and Lydia (Gager) Huntington, [See Huntington Family.] They settled on Plain Hills, in the north part of Norwich. He was a farmer...In religion he was an earnest and zealous disciple, scarcely satisfied with what he looked upon as too rigid and formal, the modes adopted in the established Congregational Church, with which he united in 1732–his wife having been a member from 1717. After her death, which occurred April 20, 1730, he married (2), August 5, 1731,* Mary Kelley, who, in the same year united with the First Church of Norwich. It was during her lifetime that the great outbreak occurred from the Separatists, and both she and her husband were among the leaders in that disturbing movement. Both of them were warned to appear before the church August 28, 1745, and answer for the presumption in joining with others to 'set up' a separate meeting." This source goes on to explain their objections.
      "Mrs. Lothrop died in Norwich April 19, 1760, and he married (3), Mary 20, 1761, Phebe French.
      *there are some unfortunate typos on dates but the above is corrected rather than showing the typographical errors.
      P. 113 shows William's children by his first 2 wives.
      Mary's marriage to William Lathrop is cited in "Lebanon (Goshen), New London County," p 41.
