Frederick Winthrop Grant1

b. 12 December 1797, d. 21 February 1886
     From Stiles:

Frederick and Ann " . . . settled on the homestead, which had been occupied continuously by his ancestors for four generations, beginning with the first Samule Grant. . . .

"Major Grant, on coming into possession of the paternal estate, found it in an embarrassed condition. His father, Capt. roswell, a man of genial manners, strong social instincts, and largely occupied by public duties which invited expense and laxity of attention to his own affairs, had left a good estate badly encumbered with debts. major Grant assumed these obligations, pledged himself to support his parents, and undertook the redemption of a property that otherwise would have passed to strangers. To this work of love he brought to bear a comprehensive intellect, and imporved the estate until it passed into the hands of his heirs as one of the finest of the many beautiful farms of this wondrously fertile valley. He embodied his beliefs in his life. His bodily infirmities were fiew, and no mental weakness impaired the rare companionship of his declining years. The politician or antiquarian could find no more agreeabe companion with whom to travel the ways of our earlier political and social life than Major Grant. He aided an unusually clear mind with the results of much laborious reading and years of thoughtful observation. A severe and protracted disease of the eyes early in manhood nearly permanently impaired hi svision and rendered the study of books a task through life; yet few of the great questions that affected the European or American politics of his generation were left by him unconsidered.

"In private life Mr.Grant supported a comfortable style and maintained a beautiful old-school hospitality. Few men could receive a guest with greater dignity and more assuring manners than he. His 'your servant, sir,' was the very epitome of graceful urbanity, and at the board or about the hearth his convesation charmed and instructed. To him Stiles, Wolcott, Tarbox, and many others whose charming histories and sketches of colonial life are so well known, went for information on subjects connected with historic Windsor. Mr. Grant never professed religion, but, until late years, was in the habit of gathering his family for daily Scripture reading. He was a pronounced enemy of all frivolous reflections on sacred things, and reverently treasured the traditions of his simple Puritan ancestry. he fitted for college, but was prevented by illness from following out his intentions; held durin ghis life various town offices, selectman, etc; was somewhat of a military man; app. Corp'l in 2d Co., 1st Cavalry Reg't, 29 Aug., 1822; held successivley the offices of Sgt., Cornet, 2d Lieut., and Captain in same Co; app. Maj. of 1st Reg't Cav., 31 May, 1832, and declined subsequent offers of military honors."

Frederick Winthrop Grant was born on 12 December 1797 at East Windsor, Hartford Co., CT. He was the son of Col. Roswell Grant and Fluvia Wolcott. Frederick Winthrop Grant was baptized on 27 May 1798 at East Windsor, Hartford Co., CT. He married Ann Ellsworth Stoughton, daughter of John Stoughton and Sarah Wetmore, on 27 October 1842. Frederick Winthrop Grant died on 21 February 1886 at East Windsor, Hartford Co., CT, at age 88.
