    "Rev. Jonathan3 Marsh. D. D. b. at Hadley. Mass., Aug. 7. 1685, son of Jonathan2 and Dorcas Marsh. (John1); graduated at Harvard college, 1705, teacher at Hadley Hopkins academy, 1706-7, salary £30; settled at Windsor, Ct. June. 1710; … Rev. Jonathan3 Marsh, at first settled as colleague of Rev. Mr. Mather, remained pastor there at Windsor 37 years by the beautiful river of all his days, until his death ae. 62. He published 'election sermons' delivered before the general court, in 1721 and 1737. His success is thus alluded to in the 'History of the First church of Hartford:' 'Meantime, only so far away as Windsor, a very remarkable revival had taken place under the ministry of Rev. Jonathan Marsh.' Yet like many of the strong men of his day he was wary of new measures. In 1741 he was of the council that disapproved of 'faintings and convulsions' as necessary for conviction of sin, and of visions for the bodily eye. … He d. Sept. 8 [9], 1747."
