    "Col. Joseph Pitkin … was b. May 26, 1696. … d. Nov. 30, 1762. … was Captain of the 3d militia company, east side, in 1738, and rose to Colonel of the 1st regiment in 1751. He was Justice of the Peace, Sheriff in 1726, and for twenty years represented the town in the General Assembly. He was Judge of the County Court in 1735. He was 'musterer' of the company raised for the expedition against Crown Point, commanded by his brother Col. John Pitkin. (See Col. Rec. Vol. V1I, pp. 339, 395, 517, 541, 543.) He was deacon of the Third Church of Hartford from 1748 till his death, fourteen (14) years. He owned, with his brother. Gov. William, two large fulling mills at 'Pitkin Falls.' He built, in 1747, a rolling and iron slitting mill at the 'Forge Falls.' This industry was prohibited by British Parliament in 1750. Powder was manufactured here for the army during the Revolution. At its close, it was again run as an iron mill. He built in 1723, lived and died, in a house now standing, since known as the 'Stuart House,' near which he had a building for clothings."
