General Notes: Husband - Ithamar Pelton

---

He was a master builder and an expert mechanic. He is said to have built thirteen churches, besides many mills and houses. He moved from the Connecticut Valley, about 1782, settling in Hampshire County, Massachusetts, at Middlefield, where he died. He served in the French war, under General Amherst in Captain Peleg Redfield's company, throughout the campaign of 1760. He marched with the minute-men from the town of Chatham, Connecticut, on the "Lexington Alarm" and probably rendered other service, as it is known he was at the burning of New London, Connecticut, in 1781.

He lived at Essex, Chatham, East Windsor, prior to moving to Massachusetts.
