Thomas Judd, second son of Deac. Thomas Judd, married Sarah Steele, daughter of John Steele, of Farmington. He was one of the first planters of Mattatuck, or Waterbury; and was the first deputy sent from that town to the General Court, May, 1689. He represented the town, at one or both sessions, for 11 years, between 1689 and 1703. Was several limes a deputy with his nephew, Deac. Thomas Judd, when the town sent two. He was an Ensign in 1686, and a Lieutenant and chief officer from 1696 or 97 till his death, there being no Captain till after his decease. He was the first Commissioner for Waterbury, 1690 to 1699, and a Justice of the Peace from 1699 to 1703. His wife died May 22, 1695, aged 57. He died Jan. 18, 1703, aged about 65. The inventory of his estate was £407. He left only three children. They were born in Farmington, but their births are not recorded. He died without making a will, as did his father and all his brothers except Samuel. Thomas Judd, as a proprietor of Waterbury, was entitled to a large quantity of land in that great township, and was still a proprietor of Farmington. Indeed, land in those days was more plenty than any thing else, but the greater part of the upland was then deemed of little value. A tract in Waterbury was named Judd's Meadow, in the 17th century.
