Note: "Mention of 'Water Powered Mills' is made on page 42 of Charles S. Grant's 'Democracy in the Connecticut Frontier Town of Kent' published in 1961, with no names or locations, but on pages 148, 149 are ranked the same 78 residents of early Kent. Benjamin Bronson is ranked 13th, as Selectman and Moderator with property worth 110 pounds, while his neighbor Samuel Waller of Kent Hallow, is ranked 11th, as Selectman and Agent with property worth 92 pounds. With a background of mill building by his father Samuel Bronson and his grandfather Richard Bronson, in Farmington and Kenzington, Benjamin Bronson doubtless played a very important part in the construction and engineering of the first mill on the Aspetuck River, atop East mountain. The natural terrain of the site certainly must have pleased Benjamin and his three sons Ashel, Bela, and Levi, then aged 12, 7, 5 respectively." (Pikoski, p. 1)
