• Edward Griswold gave testimony on 15 May 1684, stating that he was aged about 77 years, and that in the year 1639, Mr. William Witting, Dec'd was Undertaker for a shipp in England, in which Shipp I came to New England.¹⁰
• Edward Griswold settled in a part of Windsor called Poqonnoc, afterwards became one of the first settlers of Killingworth, Connecticut. Edward and Matthew (the later of whom was the ancestor of the two Governors Griswold) were brothers. They resided in Kenilworth, Warwickshire, England where another brother Thomas also lived. The two brothers are probably kinsman of Francis Griswold who settled at Cambridge and Charlestown, Mass., although exactly how they are related is yet to be discovered. It has been shown that they are not related to Michael Griswold of Wethersfield, Conn., the progenitor of another line of Griswolds. Edward (and Matthew) came to America in 1639 in a vessel sent out by Mr. William Whitting and in company with the Rev. Ephraim Huit and several other members of his congregation who settled at Windsor. About Aug. 17, 1639, Rev. Ephraim Huit arrived in Windsor, Connecticut with his company and immediately entered upon his labors assisting Rev. John Warham. Rev. Huit had been pastor at Knowle and Wroxall, Warwickshie, England. Wroxall being a part of Kenilworth Parish. He was a writer of note upon religious subjects and a powerful preacher of the Puritan faith; he was censured for his non-conformity and silenced by the Bishop of Worcester, which no doubt, was the moving cause of his organizing his company and for his removal to New England. Edward and Matthew Griswold were members of this company.
  Edward was of the sturdy intellectual type and speedily became prominent in the affairs of the new community, exceedingly active, and was frequently mentioned in colonial records. Served as deputy to the General Court Aug 18, 1658 to Mar. 14 1660, and May 15, 1662 to Mar 11, 1663. In 1659 he built the Old Fort at Springfield for Mr. Pynchon. Also served as J.P. He was granted land at Poquonoc but he did not remove there until after the title of the Indians had been fully extinguished, 1642. He was resident there with two other families, John Bartlett and Thomas Holcomb in 1649. His home stood near the highway at the top of the hill; had 29 1/2 acres bounded mostly south and west by Stony Brook; east by the river. His sons George and Joseph inherited the homestead.
  In 1663, wit his son John, Edward removed to Hammonassett, later called Killingworth. The present Clinton, Connecticut is the original Killingworth; Main Street is the identical ground where the first settlers took their home lots. These were surveyed in 1663 by Byron Rossiter of Guilford. Edward was one of the first settlers and doubtless suggested the name from Kenilworth Parish in England, and was the most prominent man in the new settlement and must be given full credit for first organizing this community. He was its first deputy to the General Court.
  Among the names entered as planters by the committee we find Edward Griswold, Samuell Buell and Jonas Westover and in 1669 these were recorded as freeman.
  Edward was largely instrumental in organizing the first Church and was its first Deacon. Frequently served on important civil matters, his services, council and guidence evidently muchsought. Served on the committe to establish a Latin school in New London.
  Ancient land records on file at the office of the Secretary of State, Hartford, Connecticut, show land grants in favor of Edward; one of 200 acres, another of 100 acres given by the town of Killingworth. He was a large land holder showing the spirit of those English settlers to accumulate large land holdings.^9,11
