    "47. Charles5 Upson (Thomas4, Thomas3, Stephen2, Thomas1). Born March 18, 1752, Wolcott. Died April 29, 1809, New Haven, and there buried. … Charles Upson lived on the family homestead. In January, 1778, he served on a committee to collect money for clothing for the soldiers. In February 1782, he performed the first recorded inoculation for small-pox. In 1783 he was appointed one of the first selectmen of Waterbury. From 1789 to 1790 he is listed as a deacon of the Wolcott Church. In 1792 he subscribed the largest sum for the settlement of Rev. Woodward and in 1805 he had the largest tax list of any man in the Society. He was called Capt. Charles and 'Squire' Charles. The first title is believed to be one of courtesy and the second because of the many years that he was Justice of the Peace."
