Deacon James Cornish1

b. 1663, d. 2 April 1740
     Deacon James Cornish was born in 1663 at Old Saybrook, Middlesex Co., CT. He was the son of Mr. James Cornish and Phebe Brown. Deacon James Cornish married Elizabeth Thrall, daughter of Timothy Thrall and Deborah Gunn, on 10 November 1693. Deacon James Cornish died on 2 April 1740.2

It seems probable that he was born in Saybrook, Conn., bur no record of the date has been found; but his age given on his tombstone at Simsbury, Conn., as seventy-seven years, indates the date closely. On the Windsor (Conn.) records he is called as "of Westfield," from which place he, undobtedly, came to Windsor, and he apparently lived in Windsor from about 1690 to 1698, as records of births of his children are made there as late as 1697. He was a farmer, the almost universal occupation of the people there in those days, and was long one of the foremost men of Simsbury, Conn., and was prominent in the affairs of town and church. He was first taxed in Simsbury in 1699, having bought land there from Eleazar Hill, March 26, 1698. He represented Simsbury in the General Court of the colony many times, and held numerous other positions of confidence and trust. He was chosen Deacon of the chrch in Simsbury in 1715, which office he held until his death, he and his first wife having been admitted to the church there in December, 1698.

He accumulated quite a property for those times, his estate inventorying £860, and was divided by will dated Feb. 8, 1740, among the children by his second wife, first giving her outright one third and the use of all the rest during her lifetime, unless she wished to pay any of the children their portion sooner, which apparently she did. He also confirmed the children by his first wife in the portions they had received from him from time to time, as he had given them their portions as they had becomre of age, deeding lands in simsbury in the cases of his two oldest sons, James, Jr., and Joseph, Feb. 16, 1717, and Dec. 21, 1719, respectively, as in full of all of their portion of his estate. 3

He was active in religious affairs and meetings were first held in his home and that of Nehemiah Gaylord previous to 1763. He served as a member of the Legislature from 1776 - 1789 and was also a selectman. 5
