He is called the first settler of Ellington, then a part of Windsor; although his family had not removed thither previous to his death, which occurred by accident. A stone was erected, bearing this inscription: 'Lieut. John Ellsworth was killed here by the fall of a tree, Oct. 26th, 1720, aged 49 years and 19 days.' The stone has been removed a short distance, and now stands by the road-side, about one mile southeast of the meeting-house."
