    "Nathaniel2 Bunnell or Bonnell (William1) was probably born in one of the towns of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. At the time of the move to the New Haven Colony in 1646, Ann (Wilmot) Bunnell had 'divers small children'. Benjamin and Lydia were apparently the two who were put out to other families. The births of Mary and Ebenezer were recorded in New Haven in 1650 and 1653 respectively. Nathaniel was therefore probably the youngest of the three brought from Massachusetts Bay. He was probably born between 1640 and 1642. …

    He was one of the Elizabethtown Associates who petitioned the Crown in 1696 for relief from … oppression by the Lords Proprietors. … This seems to be the last public mention of his name. He probably died not long afterward without leaving a will. Duncan gives a death date of 'about 1696', although I do not see the source."

This is what is afterwards known as 'the Elizabeth - Town Grant' and Baker, Ogden, Bancroft, Bailey and Watson, with their associates, are those usually known as 'the Elizabeth - Town Associates.'
