"4. Stephen (Lee)2, son of John1, the immigrant, was the first settler in that portion of the original tract of land, called in 1707, 'Great Swamp;' in 1720, Kensington, and, in 1754, New Britain. He received a grant from the town in January, 1689 'of 5 roods of land on the westerly side of the highway, (provided, it doth not hinder former grants,) and the watering place; he building on it within four years, or else it is to return to the town again.' In March following, application was made to 'the Court' 'to lay out Stephen Lee's lot, as near as they can, according to grant.' … He was Captain of the Farmington Train Band, and bore that title from middle age. … He died June 7, I753, aged 87. A red sandstone in the old cemetery at 'Great Swamp' (now Christian Lane) marks his last resting place."
