A Genealogical Memoir of the Descendants of Ambrose Fowler of Windsor, CT
PUBLICATION: NEHG Register, Vol 11, July 1857, page 247
Ambrose Fowler is supposed to be a son of William Fowler, one of the first
magistrates of the New Haven Colony, and a first settler at Milford but this has
not been proven. He appeared at Windsor, CT as early as 1640, where he was one
of Rev. John Warham's church who came from Dorchester, MA, and located at
Windsor in 1636. Ambrose was one of a committee in 1641, Hartford Colony, to
settle the bounds of Uncoway and Poquonnuck. His name is often met with in the
records of that town. He sold land at Windsor in 1671, soon after which he
removed and settled with his children at Westfield, MA. In 1675 there is a
notice of the burning of "Mr. Ambrose Fowler's house and barn" at Windsor. His
will was made in 1692, and proved in 1706, in which he names seven children, all
recorded at Windsor.
