    "William Ely, the eldest son of Richard, had gone to the West Indies, perhaps to visit an uncle residing there, about the time his father emigrated to America. Two years after his settlement in America, Richard sent for his son William, who arrived in Connecticut from the West Indies about 1670. He resided in Lyme, married Elizabeth Smith, and was for many years Judge of the County Court of New London. William Ely died in February, 1717, aged 71 years. The monument in the Lyme cemetery, erected to the memory of his father, also commemorates his name."
