Her father escaped the Irish Massacre of Protestants in Ireland in 1641 and after arriving in the Colonies, settled in New London, Conn. Marie died at Stonington, 14 Dec 1743 in her 78th year (tombstone). Both she and Benjamin were buried in the Old Plains Burying Ground at Stonington. Their headstones were still standing as late as 1905.
    Benjamin was baptized at age 30 at the 1st Congregational Church of Stonington along with his first 3 children, 24 Jul 1692. He was called Lieutenant Hewitt in the town records for his service in the local militia. Elected a Selectman, he represented Stonington at the General Court in 1708 and in 1716. Benjamin became a prosperous and respected landowner in his community.
    His will was written 25 April 1725, the day before Benjamin died. It was probated 20 May 1725 (New London Probate Records, Will Book C, p. 171). His wife Marie and all of their children were mentioned in the will except Thankful who had died as a child. The inventory valued his estate at 1543 pounds, 7 shillings, which was a sizeable estate at that time and in light of the fact that Benjamin had already deeded land to several of his son's in 1724.
    All of Benjamin's children were baptized at the 1st Congregational Church of Stonington, Conn., also known as the Road Church. The Vital Records of Stonington listed the births of children Benjamin, Jr., Israel, Joseph, Elkanah and Henry Huett, son of Benjamin and Marie Huett.

    The son of Thomas-4 Wait, that is, John-3 Wright, on 27 Mar. 1772 sold land to "my uncle John Wait (4) of Tiverton", and in this deed the nephew is consistently named John Wait. But on 26 Sept. 1774, the uncle, John-4 Wait, bought land from Joseph Eagleton (near which the writer owns a small parcel), and is refered to as John Rite and "John Right of Richmondton" (Land Evidence, Book 2, page 498).
This reference thanks to Anita Smith

An explaination and lots of Credit.
    Mrs. Dorothy Stewart typed and compiled land records for the North Stonington area. These records are kept in the Stephen Main Homestead owned by the North Stonington Historical Society. The land records used for the Eccleston family are photo copied from her work. I would also like to thank Gladys Chase for opening the center on her day off and staying with me for hours while I copied the records. Then when I need additional records she would copy them and send them to me.
   To keep the generations and names straight I have used a system that each number is a generation. The 10 child is an "a". Each number within the generation is the order of birth. Joseph Eggleston, Sr. is indicated by being the first child of Joseph Egglestone son of Bigot.  In the Land Records he will be refered to as #11. (Joseph-1, Joseph-11. Example: Joseph-11 second child would be Isaac-112. Third generation, second child, of the first son of the second generation of Joseph-1. I am not using Bigot as the first generation, but his son Joseph who are the descendants we are interested in.
    Also I would like to thank a Eccleston cousin Teri Eccleston Kulka for photographing many grave stones of the Eccleston family. And to all the people who donated pictures. Family faces are like a magic mirror. Looking at people who belong to us, we see the past, the present and the future.
    If you have any lines of Joseph Eccleston (especially female lines) that you would like to add please get in touch with me. If you have any contrary evidence and would like me to correct something please send it to me. I know I have made mistakes, I know there are more children somewhere, I just can not find them. If they are in your line please tell me. I would like to make this as complete as I can. I have used e-mail addresses for people who have contributed lines. I welcome all constructive openions.

(Austin's Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island p. 347 [974.5 D26a] also lists Joseph as recipient oa legacy from the will of Gershom Mott.) [E59]
