"1. 3. 9. Daniel Huntington, born in Norwich, March 13, 1675-6, and married for his first wife, January 31, 1705-6, Abigail, daughter of Thomas and Mary (Rudd) Bingham, who was born, November 4, 1679, and died after becoming the mother of his first five children, December 25, 1734. He married for his second wife, Rachel Wolcott of Windham. The name of the first wife is found on the Norwich first church records for the year 1707. He does not appear to have taken a very active part in the public affairs of the town, yet was evidently a man of more than ordinary personal culture for those days, and seems to have entailed upon his descendants a large portion of his own native talent. His second, late marriage will introduce a most marked anachronism into the family, making the fifth generation of his descendants nearly synchronize with the seventh generation of some of the descendants of his brother Simon. His name appears on the church records for the year 1724. He died in Norwich, September 13, 1741. His widow married, November 30, 1742, Joseph Bingham of Windham, who was born in 1687, and died, September 4, 1765."
