A statement by Alfred Wainwright, born 4/4/1790, died 6/12/1852
William Wainwright, Born; 1717, Died: 1775
Married: Sabrina Johnson on 3/21/1742
The ancestors on my father's side came to this country from Wales. My grandfather, William Wainwright, first in this country, died at Cheshire, CT in 1775 at the age of 58 years. He had four sons:
Samuel, John, David, and Jonathan. John was wild, and gave his father and my father much trouble. He took up his residence at Cornwall, CT where he died at the age of 76 years, a respected man. He had three sons who went to New Yourk and Philadelphia where they became, not only respected, but wealthy.
William Wainwright was born in the rugged country to the North of St. George's Channel. At the age of 21 years, having completed his apprenticeship as a tailor, he emigrated to America, landing at New Have, CT in the sumer of 1738. After casting about for a place to settle, he chose that part of the Township of Wallingford which is now the village of Cheshire. Here he engaged in the business of tailoring, married, and raised his family.
The record of his marriage on March 21, 1742 is the first appeariance of the name on the books of the Township. On July 7, 1748 William and Sabrina Wainwright convey by warranty deed to Giles Andrews a tract of land in New Cheshire, CT, "which descended from our father, Ebenezer Johnson, being 2/3 of 25 acres." On April 29, 1760, William and Sabrina Wainwright convey to Josiah Smith 1 3/4 acres of land, "being our entire right to the Dower Land of our honoured mother, Mrs. Lydia Johnson."
William was a participant in two wars, The French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. (See Connecticut Historical Society Records., Vol. IX-F846-191, which cites him as a soldier for 16 days, August 7 to 23, 1757 as riding a horse from Stratford, CT for the relief of Fort William Henry.) (The records of CT men in the Revolutionary War states that William Wainwright enlisted from Stratford, CT on May 8, 1775 in Captain Samuel White's Company, and in Colonel David Waterbury's 5th Regiment.
William was discharged on October 8, 1775.) William Wainwright died within about one month afterward.
Sabrina Wainwright's ancestry extends back to the very first settlement of New Haven, CT. It contains the names of Hotchkiss, Wilmot, Hall, Woolen, Cleverly, and Thomas...and others. Her father was Ebenezer Johnson, the youngest of 13 children, and was the son of William Johnson, a Dutchman from New Amsterdam. Ebenezer Johnson came to New Haven about 1650. Sabrina's mother, Lydia was the daughter of Thomas Hatchkiss and Sarah Wilmot. Thomas Hotchkiss was born in 1654 in CT, his wife, Sarah Wilmot was born in 1662 in CT. Their marriage is dated at 1677 in CT.
David, John's brother, left Cheshire some years before John, and went to Great Barrington, MA where he accumulated a handsome property, raised a large family, and ended his life in 1831. He represented that town in the General Assembly. David was short in stature, his personal appearance was in keeping with his character, substantial and determined. He was the father of many children. David settled at Great Barrington before 1776. He married Ruby Younglove on March 15, 1776. He was a firm supporter of the Episcopal Church, and long filled a place in the town business. He was a Selectman for five years. He died in Wisconsin at the age of 80 years, on May 21, 1831. His wife survived him, dying at the age of 89 years on January 18, 1846.
Lieutenant George Wainwright, son of Timothy Wainwright, grandson of David of Great Barrington, took part in the battles of Tampa Bay, Corpus Christi, and Palata. He was wounded in the neck, and wounded badly at Monterey. General North rode up hastily and demanded why an office was left in the field. Lieutenant George Wainwright raised a shattered arm with his left hand, saying: "This is my answer." General North exclaimed: "Ahe, Wainwright, I woud give $10,000 for that wound." George's wounds healed. He was, also, with General Scott at Vera Cruz. George returned to Great Barrington, MA in 1848, shattered in health. He went to the home of a friend at Brooklyn where he died on August 3, 1848 at the age of 28 years.
