Robert Charles Anderson on Matthew Grant on the Three Youngest Hoyt Children

"… Matthew Grant tells us that Simon Hoyt had two children born during his residence at Windsor [Grant 93]. … The birth of Benjamin is recorded at Windsor on 2 February 1644[/5], but the dates for Samuel and Sarah are less certain and seem to cluster around the period from 1645 to 1647, very close to the birth of Benjamin. If Grant is right, then these three must have been born in Fairfield; the solution may be that each of these is a little younger than our estimate, or that the Hoyt family moved to Fairfield as early as 1644. Either Grant is in error as to the number of children born in Windsor, or Benjamin wasn't really born in Windsor, but had his birth recorded there perhaps because he had elder brothers still living in that town."[1]

    Then follows the testimony of the … witnesses, taken June 6, 1720. Stephen Bishop Sen. testifies that "sometime in the beginning of the year 1714" he took down in writing, as it was then declared by the mouth of Dea. Samuel Hait, this last will and testament. After this comes the inventory, dated June 7, presented June 29, 1720, amounting to over £300.
