Note: Yale College Biographical Sketches, 1751, pp 78-79

"Martin Welles, the eldest child of General Roger Welles (Yale 1775), of Newington Parish, in Wethersfield, Connecticut was born on Dec 7, 1787 and baptized on January 27, 1788, by the name of his maternal grandfather, Capt Martin Kellogg.

He studied law after graduation with Samuel Cowles of Farmington, and after his admission to the bar opened an office there. In September, 1809, he married Frances (or Fanny), daughter of Reuben S. and Levia (_____) Norton of Farmington.

In 1813 he was admitted to the bar of New York State, and began practice in Newburgh, in Orange County. Thence he removed about 1817 to New York City; but in 1820 failing health compelled his return to Wethersfield, and for some yars he retired from professional life.

He was, however, sent by his fellow-townsmen to the General Assembly as a representative in six sessions (1824-37, 1831-32), and was also elected to the State Senate in 1827, 1828, and 1829. He served as Clerk of the Lower House in 1824-26, and as Speaker in 1831-32, presiding with marked dignity and ability. As one of the senior Senators, he was a Fellow of the Yale Corporation for two years (1828-1830). He was a pronounced Whig in politics.

He was an associate Judge of the Hartford County Court from 1824 to 1830.

While in the Legislature in 1827, the new State Prison was largely through his strenuous efforts, located in Wethersfield, and he planned and superintended the erection of the buildings.

In 1850 he resumed prace in Hartford, with energy and devotion.

He had made large investments in land in Ottaw County, in northern Ohio, where the town Martin was named for him. While attending to business there, he died in Martin, on January 19, 1863, in his 76th year. He was buried in Newington.

His children were four sons, and a daughter who died in infancy. The two elder sons were graduates of Yale in 1830 and 1834, respectively, but both died before him.

A copy of his portrait is given in the History of Wethersfield.

Of unimpeachable integrity, powerful and acute intellect, deep knowledge of the law, fearless independence and forcible diction in asserting the claims of his clients, he was an advocate not easy to encounter. With great dignity of deportment he untied in his family life the tenderest symphaies and warmth of heart."

Married Name: 24 March 1782; Mrs. Bulkley (Welles); 2nd wife -- Prudence, m Capt. Edward BULKLEY, Mar 24, 1782, by Rev John Marsh

Edward Bulkeley
was a ship’s Captain and Master, sailing from New London and the Connecticut
River for ports in the Caribbean. Extant shipping manifests, customs declarations,
etc., show that he mastered the sloop Dolphin, the schooner Oliver, and the Fair
Trader at one point or another. He sailed into Nevis, Grenada, and Dominica. Bills
of lading show that he accepted horses in Connecticut for sale on the islands. One
document, dated 29 July 1765, when the Dolphin was under Capt. James Mitchell,
that Alexander Granby accepted a brown mare for sale for under £20. The terms
were that the sale was to be made prior to the sloop’s return from Dominica and
that, should she fetch more, the commission would not increase

1st wife: Rachel Pomeroy 27 Oct 1771

C Welles

Nam-Std: Wells

Note*: 24 April 1796; Sheffield, Berkshire Co., Massachusetts, USA; He was 25 years old when, in a letter dated 24 Apr
1796 from Sheffield, Berkshire Co., Massachusetts, he wrote,
"Sheffield April 24th 1796
My Dear & Honored Parents
The many indulgencies and repeated Kindnesses you have shown me call forth my
warmest acknowledgments. I take this method to inform you that I enjoy praised be
God a tolerable State of Health – alltho I am not well – the Air in Sheffield is a
damp mist Air occasioned by the large Quantity of low Ground & Meadows. I
determine if I am not better from the move out about three or four Miles East of the
Meeting House to Capt Day’s1 he is an old Gentleman that is Well versed in
Surveying. With him I may perhaps perfect myself in that Art. I live in a
Neighborhood of people that mean well and if they meet me as they have done
hitherto I can make myself tolerable easy with them. But I wish to be in business
that is more lucrative. To accumulate wealth is the Define of most of us. To live happy with it is the lot of few. I hope these Lines will find you my Dear Father
enjoying Life and Health may the evening of your Life be calm and serene – may
we all live as we shall wish we had done when we come to Die that when Death
shall lay his Arrest upon us we may not be seized with any terror or perturbation of
mind but believing in him who expired upon the Cross may be cheerfully resign
our Spirits into the Hands of our Creator
Adieu my Honoured Father
C Welles"

Possibly this is William Day, the only one of that name appearing in the 1790 federal census in Sheffield,
Berkshire Co., Massachusetts (NARA series M-367, reel 4, p. 595 [handwritten number], column 3).

Inscription

Mary's portion of the stone is missing but according to Edward Tillotson's survey of the cemetery in 1899 it read:

"Beneath this stone lies interr'd the belov'd remains of Miss Mary Welles, A person amiable in her manners, kind and benevolent in her disposition, and early lover of her God, and believer in Christ her redeemer. She cheerfully sank into the arms of death Aug 10th 1793. Aged 26 years. My spirit cries I am not dead, my body moulders in the ground, My soul to God in Heaven is fled, sometimes I glide down ethers space And watch and view my weeping friends, back I return to God's embrace, and there my quick excursion ends.

Gravesite Details the other person on this double headstone is Capt Gideon Welles (1755-1795)

(Deceased) Death*: 10 August 1793; Wethersfield, Hartford Co., Connecticut, USA; d. unmarried 10 Aug 1793, at age 26
(Wethersfield First Congregational Church Records, slip index citing 2:310).

"Beneath this stone lies interr'd the belov'd remains of Miss Mary WELLES. A person amiable in her manners, kind and benevolent in her disposition, an early lover of her God, and a believer in Christ her redeemer. She cheerfully sunk into the arms of death Aug'st 10th 1793. Aged 26 years.
