Biography
John, born in Norwich, March 15, 1666, married, Dec. 9, 1686, Abigail, daughter of Samuel Lathrop, who was born in May, 1667. Her father had moved to Norwich from New London, to which place he had gone from Scituate, Mass., in 1648. He was the son of the Rev. John Lathrop, who, for non-conformity, being a preacher in the first congregational church organized in London, was imprisoned for two years, and who on being released in 1634, came to this country, and became the first minister of Scituate.

John was, also, as the records show, a man who commanded the respect and esteem of his fellow townsmen.

In 1691, Dec. 21, he was appointed constable in Norwich.
