General Notes for Child Sylvanus Graves Redfield
[18401.ged]
According to the Redfield Book, Sylvanus was alive in Twinsburg, Ohio, at th time of the printing of the book in 1860. The 1860 census for Twinsburg, however, shows Esther living alone with sons Richard and Orrin.
E-mail correspondence with James Redfield, great-great grandson of Sylvanus, shows family records indicate that Sylvanus died "en route to Kansas, and is buried i Geneva, Kansas". Later correspondence with Loren Adams, USGenWeb site manager for Allen county, KS, turned up his gravesite. He is buried in Part 1, Row 9, Lot 139 in the Geneva cemetery, Geneva, Kansas. The records show his birth date as September 16, 1798, instead of September 18. I'll stick with the recor in the Redfield book of September 18 until proven otherwise.[Downing.ged]
The year that Sylvanus removed from the family compound in Killingworth to Twinsburg, Summit county, Ohio, is unknown, but the "Genealogical History of th Redfield Family in the United States", printed in 1860, states "He removed to Twinsburg, Ohio, many years ago." According to the Redfield Book, Sylvanus was alive in Twinsburg, Ohio, at the time of the printing of the book in 1860. The 1860 census for Twinsburg, however, shows Esther living alone with sons Richard and Orrin. E-mail correspondence with James Redfield, great-great grandson of Sylvanus, shows family records indicate that Sylvanus died "en route to Kansas in 1859, and is buried in Geneva, Kansas". Later correspondence with Loren Adams, USGenWeb site manager for Allen county, KS, turned up his gravesite. He is buried in Part 1, Row 9, Lot 139 in the Geneva cemetery, Geneva, Kansas. The records show his birth date as September 16, 1798, instead of September 18. I'll stick with the record in the Redfield book of September 18 until proven otherwise, although it is possible that September 18 was a baptismal date. There is no marker on the grave. A document found on microfilm in the Family History Library on his son, J.C Redfield, states the following:
"A diary kept by <J.C.> while preempting his claim in Kansas, gives minute details of his trip to Twinsburg for his bride and their coming to Kansas, accompanied by his father, who, being a carpenter and contractor, was going to build them a new house; of the illness contracted by his father enroute, and hi demise the day after reaching their destination." Film 1697428, FHL. This appears to be quoted from a paper written by his daughter, Pearl, sometime between 1912 and 1917.

CAPTAIN RICHARD LORD, bapt. England, Jan. 5, 1611-1 2 , c a m e to America, ahead of his father, in 1632. He se tt le d i n N ewtown (now Cambridge), Mass. In 1636, in com pan y w it h hi s father and mother and brothers and sister s, h e tr ave led w ith Rev. Dr. Hooker and their party thr oug h the w ilde rnes s and settled the town of Hartford, C onn . He beca m e a paten tee of Connecticut under charte r of K ing Charl e s II and a n Original Proprietor and fir st sett ler of Har tf ord, his ho me lot in 1639 being nex t west t o his father 's. Porter's "Hartford, Conn. Settlers" quotes from town re c o r d s:
"March 1640" "An Order Concerning Graves" "It is ordered that Thomas Woodford shall attend the m a k i n g of graves for any corpses deceased: and that no c or p s e sh all be laid less than four foot deep; nor tha t b e ab ov e fou r years old, shall be laid less than fiv e foo t dee p ; nor th at be above ten, shall be laid les s than s ix fo o t deep. "He shall receive for giving notice by ringing the be l l , m a king the grave, and keeping of it in seemly repai r , s o th a t it may be known in future time,-- when suc h gr ave s hav e b een made for the lesser sort, 2s. 6d., f or th e mi ddle s ort , 3s., and for the higher sort, 3 s . 6d."
"Town Crier" "It is further ordered, that if any person hath lost an y t h i ng that he desireth should be cried in a public mee ti n g , h e shall pay for crying of it 2d. to Thomass Wood for d , t o b e paid before it be cried; and the crier shal l ha v e a b oo k of the things that he crieth."
"February 22, 1651" "There was an agreement between the town and Richar d L o r d : He is to have the use of the burying place, t o pu t i n h or ses and calves; he to make and maintain th e fenc e ab ou t it , that belongeth unto it, until the tow n shal l desi r e to ta ke it into their own hand; and the n they a re to g iv e a year 's warning; and if he desire t o leave i t, he i s al so to giv e the like warning."
"September 29, 1664." "This writing witnesseth an agreement between Richa r d L o r d of Hartford, and the Townsmen respecting the bu ry in g ya rd : "The said Richard doth covenant, promise and enga g e t o a n d with the said townsmen, that there shall b e a s uffi cie n t pale fence set up round about the said b uryin g grou nd,- -t hat is to say, so much of the said fen ce a s doth pr operl y b elong to the burying yard, and th e fenc e next th e highw ay,- -the pales and post heads t o be hand somely sha rped, an d th e said fence set up stra ight, an d the pales s et even b y a l ine at the tops, an d this t o be done at o r before th e 25t h of October nex t ensuin g the date hereof . The said R ichar d is to fee d off the g rass with horses a nd calves, ac cordin g to th e former agr eement. He is at n o time to suffe r hog s t o come into th e said burying yard , nor to fodder c att l e in it. The sai d Richard is also t o reduce the divid e nt fe nce between h is said orchard an d the burying yar d t o its an cient boun ds. All this to b e done accordin g to thi s agreeme nt, an d so maintained dur ing the whol e term tha t the said R ich ard shall improve th e said bur ying-yard. An d upon the b r each of this agreemen t, or an y part of it, h e shall for fei t all the cost and l abor u pon it, to the tow n. By pal e fenc e, we intend onl y th e fence against the hig hway, a nd the di vident fence b et ween his orchard and the s aid b urying-yard. " "To which agreement, these parties have subscribed. Robert Webster | Townsmen. RICHARD LORD." James Steele | John Gilbert | Daniel Pratt | Richard Lord was one of the most energetic and effici e n t m e n in the colony. When the first Troop of Horseme n w a s org an ized, he was chosen commander, March 11, 165 8, a n d disti ngu ished himself in the Indian Wars. He wa s cons ta ble in 1 642 , townsman in 1645 and represented H artfor d i n the Gene ra l Court from 1656 until his death . He wa s th e captain re lie d on, in conjunotion with Joh n Pyncho n, fo r securing th e pe rsons of the regicides Go ffe and W halley . He married , in 16 35, Sarah (???). He b ecame a ve ry prom inent citize n and i n addition to bein g captain o f cavalry , was a shi p owner i n the carryin g trade betwee n New Lond on and the W est Indies . He foun d it necessar y to have a h ome in New Lo ndon, Conn. , whe re he purchase d a corner a t Main and Pear l Streets . H e died in New Lon don May 17, 1 662, in the fift y-firs t yea r of his age, an d his gravesto ne may still be s ee n there, w ith the follo wing epitaph:
"The bright Starre of our Cavallrie lyes here; Unto the State, a Counselour full Deare And to ye truth a Friend of Sweet Content, To Hartford Towne a silver Ornament. Who can deny to Poore he was Reliefe, And in composing Paroxysmes was Chiefe. To Marchantes as a Patterne he might stand, Adventring Dangers new by Sea and Land."
His inventory, taken May 10, 1662, amounted to œ1539. 9 . 5 . H is widow died in 1676.
