Nathaniel Phelps Jr.1

b. 19 September 1703, d. August 1781
     Nathaniel Phelps Jr. was born on 19 September 1703 at Hebron, Tolland Co., CT. He was the son of Capt. Nathaniel Phelps and Hannah Bissell. Nathaniel Phelps Jr. married Mary Curtis, daughter of Samuel Curtis and Mary Parker, on 26 May 1726. Nathaniel Phelps Jr. died in August 1781 at Hebron, Tolland Co., CT, at age 77.

"Phelps 1899 includes a second wife, Rachel Sawyer, whom Nathaniel supposedly married at Hebron on 26 March 1752. The town VRs record eight children for a 'Nathaniel, Jr.' and Rachel Sawyer; however, none of these children is mentioned in the will of Nathaniel. Furthermore, in that document he identifies Mary as his wife. He is also called 'Lieut.,' not 'Jr.,' in the death record. It appears, therefore, that the Nathaniel Jr. who married Rachel Sawyer is a different Phelps, whose birth and death records are not found in the Hebron VRs. In fact, another Nathaniel Phelps appears in the land records in 1748, where he is carefully identified as 'Nathaniel Phelps of Lebanon.' It is possible that this is the Phelps who married Rachel Sawyer in 1752. The evidence does not warrant positioning a second wife and a second set of children for Nathaniel Phelps."2

b. October 1692, d. 1770
     Ruth Elizabeth Porter was born in October 1692.1 She was the daughter of Richard Porter and Ruth Holcombe. Ruth Elizabeth Porter married René Cossitt circa 1718.2 Ruth Elizabeth Porter died in 1770.3 She was buried at Baptist Cemetery, Granby, Hartford Co., CT; new memorial stone.3

Many romantic stories are told about René's ancestry, capture, and premarital agreements, but nothing has been proven, though there are some hints that some, at least, is true.

Soon after their marriage, they moved to Simsbury, where René was granted land in 1723 - probably in the part that would become Granby, because in 1725 he bought land in Salmon Brook (Granby), and there they raised a family of nine. 2 As a former Catholic, he preferred teh Anglican church and joined the newly-formed Anglican church (St. Ann's at Salmon Brook being a short-lived branch of St. Andrew's Episcopal in Simsbury, and served by the same minister). He received another grant of land in April 1734 and expanded into what is now North Granby. There, a library, built with funds donated by his great-great-grandson Frederick H. Cossitt of New York City, still serves the public today. 3

The descent from James Phelps (bc 1520) and his wife Joan to their grandsons, the emigrants William and George, is documented. The research done by Mr.s Arthur Beal for her Colonial Dames membership give James' father as richard Phelps of Nether Tyne, Staffordshire, who died in the reign of Edward IV (1461-1483). the chard done for the Rev. John Phelps Ellsworth shows a coat of arms given to Joseph Phelps (d. 1579), mayor of Evesham, Worchestershire, who married Margaret tomes, dau. of John Tomes, who had the son James, the father of William Phelps, Mayor of Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire.

William, Richard and George, sons of William of Tewkesbury, came to Dorchester, New England, in the Mary and John in 1630. Of Richard, the youngest of the three brothers, we have this record: "Richard Phelps, 17 years old, embarked for the Islands of Barbadoses, 2 May, 1635, in the ship Alexander, Capt. Birch, and Gilbert Grimes, master." And of him we hear no more. William and George became the ancestors of the larger proportion of the American families of Phelps.

from http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/p/h/e/Michael-D-Phelps/GENE3-0001.html

George Phelps, was long believed to be the sixth child of William of Tewkesbury, Eng., b. about 1605; immigrated to New England on the Mary and John, in 1630, with his elder brother William and his younger brother Richard. It has since been concluded that the William Phelps of Massachusetts and Connecticut originated in Crewkerne, Somersetshire, England and that he is not the William Phelps of Tewkesbury records. George Phelps is omitted as an immigrant of the Mary and John. although it is conceeded that there may have been a relationship between William Phelps and George Phelps, but that it remains unestablished. No evidence exists that Richard Phelps is related to either William or George, although he is present in the earliest records of Dorchester, Massachusetts.

George Phelps is believed to be the George P__?__ aboard the Recovery of London with Gabriel Cornish as its master, sailing from Weymouth in Dorsetshire to New England March 31, 1634. The ship sailed into Massachusetts Bay in late June of July 1634; and it was very likely one of the fourteen said to have arrived that June.

Identifying George P--?-- of the Recovery, 1633 (1634), By John Plummer
The National Genealogical Society Quarterly in 1983 presented an important article by Peter Wilson Coldham, F.A.S.G., listing English shippers and goods transported by them between 1618 and 1688.(1) Included among these lists are the names of some colonists of the 1630s. Under the date 31 March 1633 appears the Recovery of London, with Gabriel Cornish as its master, sailing from Weymouth in Dorsetshire to New England. The names of twenty-six passengers are given; but for one of these, George P--?--, the script is not fully readable. (2) Meredith B. Colket Jr., F.A.S.G., in a subsequent publication, discusses one George Parkhurst of Massachusetts, whom he identifies as "perhaps the George P--- who came on the 'Recovery of London' 1633/34."(3)
The present paper addresses this subject in three regards. First, it can be shown that the Recovery passenger assuredly was not Parkhurst. Second, it is argued that the date attributed to the Recovery list is one year off--due to a clerical error--and that the clarification of this point contributes to the proper identity of the elusive George P--?-- can be narrowed to that of one of two men who were in Dorchester, Massachusetts, in 1634/35: i.e., George Phelps or George Proctor, with the greatest weight in evidence favoring Phelps.

Per Savage (iii, 405): "GEORGE, Dorchester, freem. 6 MAY 1635, rem. with WARHAM to Windsor, by first w. said to be nam. Philbury, d. of Philip RANDALL, wh. d. 29 APR 1648, had Isaac, b. 20 AUG 1638; Abraham, 22 JAN 1643; and Joseph, 24 JUN 1647, wh. d. soon, as did Abraham in the same yr.

Six s. were then liv. no d. is nam. His wid. d. 27 SEP 1690."
--Savage, James; A Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England (1860-62)


From Dorchester Records we learn that "Jan., 1632, George Phelps with others is to have the great lot of six acres a piece next to the great lots laid out toward Neponset by Maverick, Warham, Gaylord and Rockwell". (This could be either a different George Phelps or George returned to England between 1632 and 1634.)

October 28, 1634, George Phelps chosen one of ten men "to order the affairs of the Colony for one year".

May 6, 1635, George Phelps, chosen a freeman.

He came to Windsor, probably with the first emigration from Dorchester, fall of 1635, and located at the junction of the Farmington and Connecticut rivers, on second lot south of Loomis property.

He married in 1637, (1) Phillury, the daughter of Phillip Randall. She was a member of the Rev. Mr. Warham's Church in Dorchester. She died in Windsor, 29 April, 1648. By her he had six children.

He married (2) Frances Dewey, widow of both Joseph Clark and Thomas Dewey. This marraige took place Mar. 22, 1649. By her he had three children.

A Particular Courte in Hartford (between May 1648 & June 1650)
It is Agreed and Concluded betwixt this Courte in the behalfe of the Children of Thomas Dewey and Geo: Phelps of Wyndsor that the whole of the land both meadow and vpland mentioned in the said Deweys Invento: amounting to the Sum of 75 Shall bee sequestered for the Childre seuerall porcons so farr as it goes, and the remainder be 52, hee Ingages himselfe to giue in to the Courte sufficie security for the payment thereof according to the will of the Courte. The howse and peece of land belonging to it valued at 40, the said Phelps Accepts vppon his wiues parte of the estate.
-- Connecticut Particular Court Records of the Particular Court of Connecticut, 1639-1663, 1928, page 85

His removal from Windsor to Westfield was probably about 1670.

30 September 1672: "Edmund Hart of Westfield dying suddenly this sennight past inquiry was made by a jury of 12 men concerning his death who found it to be by the immediate hand of God in thunder & lightning as they conceive; their verdict is on file. And the said Edmund Hart dying
intestate the inventory of his estate was presented to this Court and power of administration upon is granted to George Phelps which he accepted of. Also Elisha Hart son of Edmd Hart being
weak to manage his own matters chose his uncle the said Geo Phelps for his guardian whom
the court aproved for that end" (HamPR 1:147).

The inventory of the estate of "Edmund Hart late of Westfield deceased" was signed 25 July 1673 and totalled &68 16s. 6d. Including real estate valued at &96 1s.: "eleven acres of meadow &55"; "twenty acres of land in the woods &40"; "a homelot Fortside four acres land not taken up &1 1s." There was a debt due to Aaron Cooke from "Edmund Hart ... his son-in-law John Scone can testify to it." "There is also a cow John Scone hath not inventoried which is said to be given to Scone's wife: Also Edward Neale hath one acre of land: Also john Greet hath one acre of land not inventoried" [HamPR 1:148]
On 31 March 1674 the court further ordered that the distribution of the estate of Edmund Hart of Westfield be "that Elisha Hart (for that he is very weak for abilities of his mind ... being crazy in his body) shall have &15 of the said estate"; "Edm: Hart's daughters shall have the rest of the estate in equal portion: and if any of the daughters shall die before distribution of the estate be made such portion shall go to the children of such daughters if they have any; and Elisha Hart having at the last court at Springfield chosen his uncle George Phelps for his guardian whom that court allowed of, this court declares that no person shall trade or bargain with the said Elisha without the consent of his said guardian" (HamPR 1:154)
Elisha Hart, b. by 1658 (and probably before 1651); living 30 September 1672 "being weak to manage his own matters," and chose "his uncle George Phelps" guardian (HamPR 1:147); d.
Windsor by 9 October 1683; the inventory of the estate of "elisha Heart" was taken at Windsor 9 October 1683 and at Westfield 4 December 1683; administration was granted to Edward Neale and Thomas Loveland, and the court ordeered distribution to "said Heart's eight Sisters, to each an equal portion" (Manwaring 1:320)
Elisha Hart chose his uncle George Phelps as his guardian in 1672, suggesting that Edmund Hart's wife was a Phelps, or that Hart's sister or his wife's sister was one of the two wives of George Phelps.

     Richard is not consistently placed here.

Stiles suggests that Richard is a sibling of William and George, but as his birth is after the death of both of this parents, McBride places him as a son of William.

He was probably the one who at 17 sailed on the Alexander to
Barbados in the company of 21-year-old Jane Marshall and 36-year-old Richard Marshall in May of 1635. This would be just after his mother's death. There is no further record of him. Richard Phelps was the son of William Phelps Sr. and Mary (?) Richard Phelps was baptized on 26 December 1619.
