Capt John Stanton
M, b. 1641, d. 31 October 1713
John was born at Hartford, Conn, in 1641. He was the son of Thomas Stanton and Anna Lord. He married Hannah Thompson in 1664. John died on 31 October 1713 A few years before his death, Capt. John Stanton gave his real estate to his sons by deed, as follows: to Joseph he gave the homestead farm in Stonington; to John and Thomas he gave all his lands in Preston. Theophilus, was not living then. John and Thomas, settled on the lands in Preston. His will, dated in 1713, confirms these gifts of land. In 1737, his son John, then of Preston, applied to the Probate Court in New London, for an equitable division of the Preston lands between him and his brother Thomas. A few years ago (from 1891), in opening a gravel bank near the site of Capt. John's house, the laborers came to a space about six by eight feet, well stoned, containing a few portions of bones. Dr. George D. Stanton visited the place and is of the opinion that it was the burying place of Capt. John and his family. at Stonington, New London, CT. A few years before his death, Capt. John Stanton gave his real estate to his sons by deed, as follows: to Joseph he gave the homestead farm in Stonington; to John and Thomas he gave all his lands in Preston. Theophilus, was not living then. John and Thomas, settled on the lands in Preston. His will, dated in 1713, confirms these gifts of land. In 1737, his son John, then of Preston, applied to the Probate Court in New London, for an equitable division of the Preston lands between him and his brother Thomas. A few years ago (from 1891), in opening a gravel bank near the site of Capt. John's house, the laborers came to a space about six by eight feet, well stoned, containing a few portions of bones. Dr. George D. Stanton visited the place and is of the opinion that it was the burying place of Capt. John and his family..
John studied at Harvard and was a Captain in King Phillips War. Before his death he gave his son Joseph the homestead farm in Stonington, and John and Thomas all the lands in Preston, Connecticut. Capt. John was Captain of one of the four Connecticut Regiments in King Phillips War. He captured Canochet the chief sachem of the Narragansetts. John Stanton was a pupil of that famous old school-teacher of the Puritans, Elijah Corlet. In 1654, he and John Minor, son of Thomas Minor, were selected for teachers of the Gospel to the Indians. Both young men, however, ultimately left their studies, and devoted themselves to other pursuits. In 1664, John became the first Recorder of the town of Southertown (now Stonington). Feb. 18, 1675, John Stanton was commissioned captain of one of the four Connecticut Regiments in King Philip's War. He served with distinction in this war, and was in command at the time of the capture of Canonchet, the chief sachem of all the Narragansetts. This service was acknoledged by the "Courte" in the remittance of a fine imposed in 1675. The circumstance was a follows: He, as agent of Stonington, with five selectmen (of whom Thomas Stantonm, his father, was one), presented a petition and protest to the General Assembly of Connecticut, on behalf of the town. They protested against certain laws deemed by them unjust to their rights, peace and liberty. For so doing, one of them, Capt. Denison, was fined 10 pounds, and forbidden to hold office. Another one, Mr. John Statnon, "the towne's agent, for management of his agency, is fined ten pounds for that boldness to be paid at the latter end of summer, at Boston, in money or corn, according to order." Meanwhile came the war, and in May, 1677, the fine not yet paid, was revoked. May 10, 1710, a deed of trust was executed in favor of Capt. John Stnaton and four others, by which the eastern part of the Mohegan lands was forever settled on the Mohegan tribe, under the regulation of said five and their successors, "so long as there shall be any Mohegans found or known of alive in the world." For litigation that arose from this and futher notes as to Capt. John see Historical Part. The Stantom homestead farm in Stonington is on the banks fo the Mystic River. The site of Capt. John's mansion is still to be seen (1891). His farm of 300 acres adjoined John Gallup's on the west and Capt. George Denison's on the north. A map of it, made by Capt. Denison in 1661, in connection with his own and other farms, is still still (1891) in the possession of the Denison famly living on their ancestral homestead. The Pe-quot-se-pos brook was the dividing line between the Stanton and Denison lands. The present owner of Capt. John's lands is Joseph Stanton Williams whose mother was a Stanton. It has never passed out of possession of the family.
John studied at Harvard and was a Captain in King Phillips War. Before his death he gave his son Joseph the homestead farm in Stonington, and John and Thomas all the lands in Preston, Connecticut. Capt. John was Captain of one of the four Connecticut Regiments in King Phillips War. He captured Canochet the chief sachem of the Narragansetts. John Stanton was a pupil of that famous old school-teacher of the Puritans, Elijah Corlet. In 1654, he and John Minor, son of Thomas Minor, were selected for teachers of the Gospel to the Indians. Both young men, however, ultimately left their studies, and devoted themselves to other pursuits. In 1664, John became the first Recorder of the town of Southertown (now Stonington). Feb. 18, 1675, John Stanton was commissioned captain of one of the four Connecticut Regiments in King Philip's War. He served with distinction in this war, and was in command at the time of the capture of Canonchet, the chief sachem of all the Narragansetts. This service was acknoledged by the "Courte" in the remittance of a fine imposed in 1675. The circumstance was a follows: He, as agent of Stonington, with five selectmen (of whom Thomas Stantonm, his father, was one), presented a petition and protest to the General Assembly of Connecticut, on behalf of the town. They protested against certain laws deemed by them unjust to their rights, peace and liberty. For so doing, one of them, Capt. Denison, was fined 10 pounds, and forbidden to hold office. Another one, Mr. John Statnon, "the towne's agent, for management of his agency, is fined ten pounds for that boldness to be paid at the latter end of summer, at Boston, in money or corn, according to order." Meanwhile came the war, and in May, 1677, the fine not yet paid, was revoked. May 10, 1710, a deed of trust was executed in favor of Capt. John Stnaton and four others, by which the eastern part of the Mohegan lands was forever settled on the Mohegan tribe, under the regulation of said five and their successors, "so long as there shall be any Mohegans found or known of alive in the world." For litigation that arose from this and futher notes as to Capt. John see Historical Part. The Stantom homestead farm in Stonington is on the banks fo the Mystic River. The site of Capt. John's mansion is still to be seen (1891). His farm of 300 acres adjoined John Gallup's on the west and Capt. George Denison's on the north. A map of it, made by Capt. Denison in 1661, in connection with his own and other farms, is still still (1891) in the possession of the Denison famly living on their ancestral homestead. The Pe-quot-se-pos brook was the dividing line between the Stanton and Denison lands. The present owner of Capt. John's lands is Joseph Stanton Williams whose mother was a Stanton. It has never passed out of possession of the family.

Joseph Stanton
M, b. 1646, d. 21 March 1713
Joseph was born at Hartford, Hartford, CT, in 1646.1 He was baptized on 21 March 1646. He was the son of Thomas Stanton and Anna Lord. He married Hannah Mead at Hartford, Hartford, CT, on 19 June 1673.1 He married Hannah Lord on 23 August 1677. She was of Hartford, Conn. His cousin?.2 He married an unknown person . He married (?) Prentice. There is in the records of the Stonington church the admission to the church of the wife of Joseph Stanton, March 16, 1683. This must have been a third wife. She seems to have died childless. But he had three children born after 1690 and both Dr. Savage and Hon. John D. Baldwin think they were the issue by a wife named Prentice. Baldwin 'conjectures' that Miss Prentice was a fourth wife. Savage thinks she was the third wife. The record of their baptisms in the Stonington church is as sons of Joseph Stanton of Westerly.
Further comments by Tom Clougher in an email 9 Apr 2011 to Brian Bonner say: "Her father ws noted as King Phillip (Metacom Pokanoket) whose brother Alexander (Wamsutta Pokanoket) preceded him as leader. Phillip/Metacom's fathr was Massasoit. During or after King Philip's War ended in 1676 with his death, his wife Wootonckuske and their nine-year old son were sold into slavery in Barbados. His daughter was living in the home of a Captain Prentice, under his protection. When the coast was clear, she was able to leave his household but retained the family name Prentice for protection against the fierce anger of the English. I think she had a sister. They both adopted English dress, manners and religion. There is a book Mayflower by ? that talks about the 50-year peaces under Massacoit and its collapse under Phillip and Governor Winslow and others. If Prentice is in our tree, then we have a Native American connection. I'll have to look in the Stonington town records for a mariage in 1683. [He doesnot provide any citations or references to source records.]. Joseph died on 21 March 1713 Note that the William Stanton book on the descendants of Thomas Stanton states that Joseph died in 1714 at the age of 68. at Stonington, New London, CT. Note that the William Stanton book on the descendants of Thomas Stanton states that Joseph died in 1714 at the age of 68..1
He was born in Hartford and then moved with his parents to Stonington. He settled on a great tract of land which his father had bought of a Narragansett sachem for a half bushel of wampum. The sachem's child was a captive and was redeemed by the aid of Joseph's father Thomas and so the Indian sold the land as part payment of the price.
In Boston records, he is described as "Joseph Stanton of Squanicot, Narraganset county, Kings Province" and in a lease recorded in Boston he describes the land leased as "half the farm or neck called Quannecontague, where I do now live." This land was where Charlestown, R.I., now is, formerly a part of Westerly. The lease was dated Nov. 20, 1685.
In 1669 Joseph lived in Stoington and was appointed assistant magristrate to hold court in New London with his father who was magistrate.
In the 1670 Census of Connecticut he is listed as Joseph Stanton 1669, freeman, head of household. In 1685 he leased land in Charlestown, Rhode Island, formerly a part of Westerly.
In 1714 Ben Uncas and fifty-four other Mohegans signed a paper, dated in May, affirming that Oweneco had wrongfully sold a great part (western part) of their lands, and they then consigned what was left to Joseph Stanton and four others. This was probably Joseph, though as he died in1714 it may have been another Joseph.
William Mead His will was made at Roxbury in 1683. He gave half of his estate to his wife and half to Joseph Stanton. There was also a charge of 20 Pounds against Joseph for Mead's supply of clothing, etc. to Joseph's daughter Hannah.

Daniel Stanton1
M, b. 1648, d. before 17 January 1694
Daniel was born at Hartford, Litchfield, CT, in 1648. He was the son of Thomas Stanton and Anna Lord. He married Sarah Wheeler at Stonington, New London, CT, Barbados, on 1 June 1671. There is much room for discussion as to Daniel's marriage. Savage thinks he lived in Westerly, RI, and by a wife Elizabeth had five children. This cannot be: these five children were born from 1678 to 1687, and are recorded in the Friend's Meeting House at Newport, RI. They are the children of Daniel son of Robert Stanton of Newport, RI. Baldwin, and other genealogists, think that Daniel married in Barbados. Judge Richard A. Wheeler, of Stonington, Conn., in a letter written April 14, 1886, discusses this subject thus: "I have searched in all the old records of Stonington, Westerly, New London and all of the Rhode Island and Connecticut archives and I am satistifed that this Daniel Stanton married here and not in Barbados. I cannot prove it but my opinion is that Daniel Stanton married Eliza Wheeler. "Thomas Miner's Diary says that this Miss Wheeler married some one, but provokingly omits the name of the groom. This Miss Wheeler had a brother Richard, who was my great-grandfather Wheeler's father."
The case for his wife being Martha is based on entries in the "Barbados Records, Baptism Records 1637-1800," compiled and edited by Joanne Mcree Sanders, 1984 in which are two baptism entries for Hannah and Daniel, children of Daniel and Martha Stanton..2,3 Daniel Stanton married Martha Pickford, daughter of Robert Pickford and Honor Pickford, circa 1680.4,5 Daniel died before 17 January 1694 at Barbados.5
He left a will on 1 June 1681 at Barbados.

18-01-2002.5 He bought property at Stonington, New London, CT, in 1681. He was the agent for the family's West Indian trade.
The Stanton book says: "Daniel had willed to him by his father in 1678 two hundred acres of land; this he authorizes his mother to sell for him. She sold it, 18 Sep, 1682, for 24 pounds to George Denison. In the New England Registry, Vol.15, p. 64, is a note to the effect that "Joseph Wells of Westerly in 1681 built the "Alexander and Martha" (dimensions, 40 ft by 16 ft. midship) for Alexander Pygan, Samuel Rogers and Daniel Stanton." The letter from Daniel to his mother authorizing her to sell the two hundred acres of land was written at Barbadoes in 1682. The inference is that he sailed in said ship in 1681 or 1682. This, however, may not have been his first voyage, and we have no means of knowing whether it was his last."
"There is much room for discussion as to Daniel's marriage. Savage thinks he lived in Westerly, RI and by a wife Elizabeth had fivechildren. This cannot be; these fivechildren were born from 1678 to 1687 and are recorded i nthe Friend's Meeting House at Newport, R.I. They are the children of Daniel, son of Robert Stanton o Newport, R.I."
"Baldwin, and other geealogists, thinks that Daniel married in Barbadoes."
"Judge Richard A. Wheeler, of Stonington, Conn., in a letter written April 14, 1886, discusses this subject thus: 'I have searched in all the old records of Stonington, Westerly, New London and all of the Rhode ISland and Copnnecticut archives and I am satisfied that this Daniel Stanton married here ad not in Barbadoes. I cannot prove it but my opinion is that Daniel Stanton married Eliza Wheeler.'
'Thomas Miner's Diary says that this Miss Wheeler married some one, but provokingly omits the name of the groom. This Miss Wheeler had a brother Richard, who was my great-grandfather Wheeler's father.'
"In the same letter Judge Wheeler has this to say of Daniel's son Richard: "A portion of the estate of Thomas STanton, Sen. was set out and assigned to Richard Stanton of Barbadoes. Subsequently this Ricahrd, in 1781, June 11 sells a part of the land so set out to him, describing himself as Richard Stanton of the Parish of St. Phillips in the ISland of Barbadoes, Planter, etc. Later, Sept. 5, 1789, he sells the blaance of the land to Joseph Denison and then describes himself as of 'St Georges in the Island of Barbadoes.' I have somewhere see it stated that this last deed was given by Richard Stanton, Jr., but cannot just now give my authority.'
"If the reader will bo back of those quoations from Judge Wheeler's letters he will see that Richard, son of Daniel, was born at least before 1688; the first of these deeds was dated in 1781 and the second in 1789; my conclusion would be that both of them were given by a Richard Stanton, Jr."
"The Scotch verdict of -not proven- must be rendered as to the descendants of Daniel Stanton until more light is secured."
"Since writing the above I am able, through the kindness of Dr. George D. Stanton, of Stonington, Conn., to give further information as to Daniel's transfer of property to his brother Thomas in 1681. Dr. Stanton has in his possession the original deed; it is witnessed by Daniel's mother and three others."
"There are some curious acknowledgments on the back of it, and I hereby give a literal copy of the deed:"
"DEED."
"To all Christian People wherever these presents shall come - Daniel Stanton sendeth greeting."
"Know you that I Daniell Stanton of Stonington in the County of New London in the Colony of Connecticott: have and do fully and absolutely enfeofe sell Alienate and pass over to my Loving brother Thomas Stanton of the same town countie and Collony A Certayne tract of Land willed to me by my honored father Mr. Thomas Stanton deceased in estimation three score acres more or less."
"Bounded as followeth: on the North by A smalll Run of Water - adjoining to Land delonging to the Said Thomas Stanton & on the East bounded with Pawcatuck River, and on the South to A Small brooke commonly called the Hott house brooke: & on the West bounded all along by the West Side of the Swamp out of which swamp the Northermost brook runneth: the Aforesaid upland meadow ground with the swamp and all the several and singular privileges and appurtenances thereunto belonging with whatever benefit doth arise therefrom. Declaring myself to have good and lawful Right in the above sayed tract of Land, and that it is free from any incumbrances, mortgage, Lease or entanglement or Any otherwise beforet he signement hereof: unto Thomas Stanton To have and To hold to possess and injoy peacably and quietly without Any Lett hindrance molestation (-) by me or by Any other person or persons by my orders and doe fully exonerate discharge & Acquitt the Aforesaid Thomas Stanton of all farther claims & debts or demands in and about the Aforesaid purchase myelfe Acquiessing fully satisfied and contented to my good satisfaction - And for more Ample consideration of the Aforesaid premises with all the contents thereof specified, I Ratify & confirm unto the sayd Thomas Stanton his heirs, executors, Administrators and Assigns for ever the Aforesaid tract of Land: from me my heirs executors Administrators and Assigns for ever to all interests and purposes According to the genuine tener hereof."
"And I the sayd Daniel Statnon do covenand and promise at all times to be ready and willing to give more Ample deed for the sure making strengthening & confirming of this my present Act & deed as witness my hand & scale this 33d & of his majisties Reign Charles King of England france IReland & Scotland defender of the fayth: and in the year of our Lord 1681."
"signed Dan'll Stanton with his seal. Signed, sealed and delivered in presence of as witnesses John Stanton, Aanna Stanton, Samuel Stanton, Nich's Cottrall"
"(Note here that Daniel's mother spells her name Aanna; the impress of the seal was on wax which has been broken, rendering obscure some characters in the upper left-hand over the D; the star with the dot in its center is undoubtedly a mullet and the seal is very significant from a heraldic standpoint.)"
"The above deed ws not acknowledged before a magistrate and the probability is that it was signed just before Daniel departed for Barbadoes. This failure to have the deed acknowledged seems to have given rise to questions as to its validity and it bears this endorsement:
"Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mr. Nicolas Cotterell personally appeared and acknowleged that they assigned the above writen as witnesses."
"The before me Samuell Mason Aptnt"
"Above witnesses mad oath"
"this dated in Stonington feberuary the 9: 16989."

It appearing to this Court that Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mr. Nicholas Cottrell made Oath before Thomas Hiscox Justice of Peace in Westerly in the Colony of Rhode Island Octo. 8th 1715 that he did verily believe that he saw Dan'll Stanton the subscriber to the afores'd deed sign and seal the same and that he Together with Mr. John Stanton, Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mrs. Anna Stanton set their hands to as witnesses, which was ordered to be Indorsed and signed Secretary"
"Hez: Wyllys, Secy."
"Be it thereupon Enacted by the Govern'or, Councill and Representatives in Generall Court assembled and by the authority of the same that the said Deed before Taken as good and affectnett to all Interest and purposes in the Law as it might or could have been ig the 3'd Deed had been acknowledged by the grantor as the Law directs and that this Act be Indorst upon the said Deed and shall be signed by the Secretary and received as a good sufficient Testimoniall of the Authentication of the said Deed --"
"Hez: Wyllys Secry."
"Notwithstanding the pains taken to authenticate the deed, Richard Stanton, Jr. of Barbadoes came to Stonington, Feb. 12 1735-6, and by virtue of a power of attorney from his father, quit-claimed all interst in the land conveyed by 'my Honored Grandfather Daniel Stanton (for the consideration Pound 46 current money) to Thomas Stanton."
"This quit-claim was to Samuel, son of said Thomas, who inherited and occupied the homestead. Dr. G. D. Stanton says of this 'Whether this consideration of 46 Pounds applied to the amount originally received by Daniel from Thomas, or from his son Samuel for the quit-claim deed from Daniel's heirs, I am unable to determine, probably the former, insomuch as the general court had already made the title secure."
"One thing is evident from this note as to Richard Stanton, Jr., namely that Richard, Sen. had more than one child, for Richard Jr, acts not as heir, but under power of attorney for his father."
"The house on the land conveyed in the deed ws occupied by Samuel, son of Thomas Jr., and stood until 1883. It bcame in habitable and was finally taken down to make room for a highway. 'It was two stories in front and one in the rtear; the front stair railing and casings were beautifully carved and evidently that work of foreign artizans; the window frames' (one of which Dr. Geo. D. Stanton had and whose description of the house is now being quoted) 'were made of sassafras wood; on one of the plates of the frame are the letters 'S.S.' without any date.

"The deeds alluded to, Daniel's (1681) and Richard's (1735) in the possession (in 1891) of Dr. G. D. Stanton, were always kept by the successive generations occupying the house. Dr. Stanton says: 'The fact the Daniell was for many years engaged in business with his father' (the business was carrying on a trade with the West Indies from their trading house in Pawcatuck, on the Pawcatuck Ricver) 'and continued it after him, and finally just before his departure to Barbadoes, conveyed it to Thomas, with other facts, leads me to the conclusion that it was the homestead site of Thomas.'

18-01-2002.5 He bought property at Stonington, New London, CT, in 1681. He was the agent for the family's West Indian trade.
The Stanton book says: "Daniel had willed to him by his father in 1678 two hundred acres of land; this he authorizes his mother to sell for him. She sold it, 18 Sep, 1682, for 24 pounds to George Denison. In the New England Registry, Vol.15, p. 64, is a note to the effect that "Joseph Wells of Westerly in 1681 built the "Alexander and Martha" (dimensions, 40 ft by 16 ft. midship) for Alexander Pygan, Samuel Rogers and Daniel Stanton." The letter from Daniel to his mother authorizing her to sell the two hundred acres of land was written at Barbadoes in 1682. The inference is that he sailed in said ship in 1681 or 1682. This, however, may not have been his first voyage, and we have no means of knowing whether it was his last."
"There is much room for discussion as to Daniel's marriage. Savage thinks he lived in Westerly, RI and by a wife Elizabeth had fivechildren. This cannot be; these fivechildren were born from 1678 to 1687 and are recorded i nthe Friend's Meeting House at Newport, R.I. They are the children of Daniel, son of Robert Stanton o Newport, R.I."
"Baldwin, and other geealogists, thinks that Daniel married in Barbadoes."
"Judge Richard A. Wheeler, of Stonington, Conn., in a letter written April 14, 1886, discusses this subject thus: 'I have searched in all the old records of Stonington, Westerly, New London and all of the Rhode ISland and Copnnecticut archives and I am satisfied that this Daniel Stanton married here ad not in Barbadoes. I cannot prove it but my opinion is that Daniel Stanton married Eliza Wheeler.'
'Thomas Miner's Diary says that this Miss Wheeler married some one, but provokingly omits the name of the groom. This Miss Wheeler had a brother Richard, who was my great-grandfather Wheeler's father.'
"In the same letter Judge Wheeler has this to say of Daniel's son Richard: "A portion of the estate of Thomas STanton, Sen. was set out and assigned to Richard Stanton of Barbadoes. Subsequently this Ricahrd, in 1781, June 11 sells a part of the land so set out to him, describing himself as Richard Stanton of the Parish of St. Phillips in the ISland of Barbadoes, Planter, etc. Later, Sept. 5, 1789, he sells the blaance of the land to Joseph Denison and then describes himself as of 'St Georges in the Island of Barbadoes.' I have somewhere see it stated that this last deed was given by Richard Stanton, Jr., but cannot just now give my authority.'
"If the reader will bo back of those quoations from Judge Wheeler's letters he will see that Richard, son of Daniel, was born at least before 1688; the first of these deeds was dated in 1781 and the second in 1789; my conclusion would be that both of them were given by a Richard Stanton, Jr."
"The Scotch verdict of -not proven- must be rendered as to the descendants of Daniel Stanton until more light is secured."
"Since writing the above I am able, through the kindness of Dr. George D. Stanton, of Stonington, Conn., to give further information as to Daniel's transfer of property to his brother Thomas in 1681. Dr. Stanton has in his possession the original deed; it is witnessed by Daniel's mother and three others."
"There are some curious acknowledgments on the back of it, and I hereby give a literal copy of the deed:"
"DEED."
"To all Christian People wherever these presents shall come - Daniel Stanton sendeth greeting."
"Know you that I Daniell Stanton of Stonington in the County of New London in the Colony of Connecticott: have and do fully and absolutely enfeofe sell Alienate and pass over to my Loving brother Thomas Stanton of the same town countie and Collony A Certayne tract of Land willed to me by my honored father Mr. Thomas Stanton deceased in estimation three score acres more or less."
"Bounded as followeth: on the North by A smalll Run of Water - adjoining to Land delonging to the Said Thomas Stanton & on the East bounded with Pawcatuck River, and on the South to A Small brooke commonly called the Hott house brooke: & on the West bounded all along by the West Side of the Swamp out of which swamp the Northermost brook runneth: the Aforesaid upland meadow ground with the swamp and all the several and singular privileges and appurtenances thereunto belonging with whatever benefit doth arise therefrom. Declaring myself to have good and lawful Right in the above sayed tract of Land, and that it is free from any incumbrances, mortgage, Lease or entanglement or Any otherwise beforet he signement hereof: unto Thomas Stanton To have and To hold to possess and injoy peacably and quietly without Any Lett hindrance molestation (-) by me or by Any other person or persons by my orders and doe fully exonerate discharge & Acquitt the Aforesaid Thomas Stanton of all farther claims & debts or demands in and about the Aforesaid purchase myelfe Acquiessing fully satisfied and contented to my good satisfaction - And for more Ample consideration of the Aforesaid premises with all the contents thereof specified, I Ratify & confirm unto the sayd Thomas Stanton his heirs, executors, Administrators and Assigns for ever the Aforesaid tract of Land: from me my heirs executors Administrators and Assigns for ever to all interests and purposes According to the genuine tener hereof."
"And I the sayd Daniel Statnon do covenand and promise at all times to be ready and willing to give more Ample deed for the sure making strengthening & confirming of this my present Act & deed as witness my hand & scale this 33d & of his majisties Reign Charles King of England france IReland & Scotland defender of the fayth: and in the year of our Lord 1681."
"signed Dan'll Stanton with his seal. Signed, sealed and delivered in presence of as witnesses John Stanton, Aanna Stanton, Samuel Stanton, Nich's Cottrall"
"(Note here that Daniel's mother spells her name Aanna; the impress of the seal was on wax which has been broken, rendering obscure some characters in the upper left-hand over the D; the star with the dot in its center is undoubtedly a mullet and the seal is very significant from a heraldic standpoint.)"
"The above deed ws not acknowledged before a magistrate and the probability is that it was signed just before Daniel departed for Barbadoes. This failure to have the deed acknowledged seems to have given rise to questions as to its validity and it bears this endorsement:
"Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mr. Nicolas Cotterell personally appeared and acknowleged that they assigned the above writen as witnesses."
"The before me Samuell Mason Aptnt"
"Above witnesses mad oath"
"this dated in Stonington feberuary the 9: 16989."
"Then follows other indorsements: to-wit:"
'Westerly in the Collony of Rhode Island Oct. 8, 1715. Then appeared before me Thomas Hiscox Justice of the peace of the Town of Westerly aforesaid: Nicholas Cottrell and made solem oath that he doth veryly believe that he saw Daniell Stanton the subscriber to the within mentioned Deed Sign and Seal ye same & that he together wth Mr. John Stanton, Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mrs. Anna Stanton set their hands to a switnesses"
"he also Delared that he verily believes The Deed on the other side is an honest thing and voluntarily Done by the said Danll Stanton he having a fresh Remembrance of the same Tho it be a Long time sence."
"Thomas Hiscox Justice"
"Stonington October ye 12 1715"
"There appeared before me Nathll Chesebrough one of His majisties Justices of ye PEace for ye County of N. London Mr. Robert Stanton and Made sollam oath that all Tho he was not a witness to the deed on ye other side he does vearyly beleve it is a veary honest thing and that it was signed and sealled by his brother Daniell Stanton and he does veary well know his brother Thomas Stanton had ye possession of ye 3d Land before his brother Danll Stanton died andever sence."
"Attest Nath Chesebrough Justic Peace."
"Att a Generall Assembly held in New Haven Octo: 13th 1715 -- Upon Application made by Thomas Stanton Representing that Mr. Daniel Stanton some time of Stonington desecd having signed and sealed bearing date In the Year of our Lord 1681 Conveying to him the said Thomas Stanton a certain tact of Land (here follows a description of the land as given in the deed) and the said Daniel Stanton dyed before a Lafull acknowledgement of it: Prayd an act of this Assembly to supply that defect. It appearing to this Court that Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mr. Nicholas Cottrell made Oath before Thomas Hiscox Justice of Peace in Westerly in the Colony of Rhode Island Octo. 8th 1715 that he did verily believe that he saw Dan'll Stanton the subscriber to the afores'd deed sign and seal the same and that he Together with Mr. John Stanton, Mr. Samuel Stanton and Mrs. Anna Stanton set their hands to as witnesses, which was ordered to be Indorsed and signed Secretary"
"Hez: Wyllys, Secy."
"Be it thereupon Enacted by the Govern'or, Councill and Representatives in Generall Court assembled and by the authority of the same that the said Deed before Taken as good and affectnett to all Interest and purposes in the Law as it might or could have been ig the 3'd Deed had been acknowledged by the grantor as the Law directs and that this Act be Indorst upon the said Deed and shall be signed by the Secretary and received as a good sufficient Testimoniall of the Authentication of the said Deed --"
"Hez: Wyllys Secry."
"Notwithstanding the pains taken to authenticate the deed, Richard Stanton, Jr. of Barbadoes came to Stonington, Feb. 12 1735-6, and by virtue of a power of attorney from his father, quit-claimed all interst in the land conveyed by 'my Honored Grandfather Daniel Stanton (for the consideration Pound 46 current money) to Thomas Stanton."
"This quit-claim was to Samuel, son of said Thomas, who inherited and occupied the homestead. Dr. G. D. Stanton says of this 'Whether this consideration of 46 Pounds applied to the amount originally received by Daniel from Thomas, or from his son Samuel for the quit-claim deed from Daniel's heirs, I am unable to determine, probably the former, insomuch as the general court had already made the title secure."
"One thing is evident from this note as to Richard Stanton, Jr., namely that Richard, Sen. had more than one child, for Richard Jr, acts not as heir, but under power of attorney for his father."
"The house on the land conveyed in the deed ws occupied by Samuel, son of Thomas Jr., and stood until 1883. It bcame in habitable and was finally taken down to make room for a highway. 'It was two stories in front and one in the rtear; the front stair railing and casings were beautifully carved and evidently that work of foreign artizans; the window frames' (one of which Dr. Geo. D. Stanton had and whose description of the house is now being quoted) 'were made of sassafras wood; on one of the plates of the frame are the letters 'S.S.' without any date. I am of the opinon that the house was constructed by Thomas Stanton, Jr. and that his son Samuel employed some leiasure moment in carving his initials in the place mentioned."
"The deeds alluded to, Daniel's (1681) and Richard's (1735) in the possession (in 1891) of Dr. G. D. Stanton, were always kept by the successive generations occupying the house. Dr. Stanton says: 'The fact the Daniell was for many years engaged in business with his father' (the business was carrying on a trade with the West Indies from their trading house in Pawcatuck, on the Pawcatuck Ricver) 'and continued it after him, and finally just before his departure to Barbadoes, conveyed it to Thomas, with other facts, leads me to the conclusion that it was the homestead site of Thomas.'

M, b. 1653, d. 25 October 1724
Robert was born at Pequoit, Conn., in 1653. He was the son of Thomas Stanton and Anna Lord. He married Joanna Gardiner on 12 September 1677. She was Roxbury, Mass.. Robert died on 25 October 1724 at Pawcatuck, Stonington, Conn. His body was interred at Wicketequack Cove. In the old family burial ground on the east side of Wicketquack Cove, half way between Stonington, Conn., and Westerly, RI..
Was a soldier in King Philip's War, ( as were his older brothers Capt. John and Joseph) which broke out when desperate Indians, seeing their lands being settled by the whites, made war to reclaim them. It was a bloody affair: though the Europeans won, it was said that one out of every sixteen white males of military age was killed.
Canonchet, chief sachem of all the Narragansets, was an active ally of Philip's in his war. While camped on the banks of the Pawcatuck, the Indians were attacked by a force of English and Indians. Canonchet's warriors fled. Left alone, he too sought safety in flight. The Indian allies of the English and a few of the fleetest-footed whites pursued him. As he ran he threw off his blanket, then his silver-laced coat and belt of peag. Seeing these, his pursuers knew whom they followed, and increased their efforts. In crossing the river ford he fell and lost his gun. This so discouraged him that he surrendered to those who first overtook him.
Being questioned by the young man who first came up to him, and who was not yet 22 years old (this was Robert Stanton), the warrior looked with lofty contempt upon his youthful enemy and answered: "You are a child - you cannot understand matters of war; let your brother (Captain John) or your chief come; him will I answer." Canonchet was taken prisoner to Stonington and shot.
