    … 1650 … when … widow Elizabeth was in prison, where a child was born to her. This child was apprenticed to Nathaniel Ruscoe, son of the jail-keeper in Hartford, who was to have £5 from Newton's property; and Ruscoe's will gave a legacy to Benoni Newton, his former apprentice. It appears that the child was son of widow Elizabeth Johnson by Thomas Newton, who was seized, charged with a capital crime, but broke jail and escaped, never returning to Fairfield. … The widow Elizabeth m.
