  • Notes 
    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. Today's Hampden County of Massachusetts was originally Middlesex County until it was split off in 1662 and named Hampshire County. Hampden County was formed from Hampshire County in 1812. At the time of these early Bancrofts, Enfield, now in Conn., was then part of Springfield, Mass. The border between Massachusetts and Connecticut fluctuated.

      6. "New England History and Genealogy Register," v. 101, p. 285, Article: "Jonathan and Nathan Gillett Descendants":
      "Samuel Gillett (son of John, grandson of Jonathan), of Suffield, Conn., and Granville, Mass., born in Windsor, Conn., 16 Feb 1677/8. He was five years old when his mother married secondly, Captain George Norton of Suffield, the town that became the boy's home for most of his life. In the later years of his life he lived in Granville, across the line in southwest Mass., and died there 'in 1739, aged 60', but was buried in Suffield. (Northampton Probate Records give administration of estate 1934[typo?]) He married in Suffield, 22 Jan 1701/2 (int. 20 Dec 1701), Rebecca Bancroft (dau. of Thomas, g.dau. of John), born in Springfield, Mass. (part later Enfield, Conn.), 23 Feb 1680...
      [Her mother] Widow Jane Bancroft received 100 acres in Lynn in 1638. Her daughter Anna married 13 May 1647 Sergt. John Griffin, settled in Simsbury, Conn., had ten children and one of them, Sarah Griffin, married Elias Gillett (son of Nathan). Son Thomas Bancroft of Springfield, Mass. region, residence at the 'lower wharf,' now Enfield, Conn., was a selectman of Westfield; 8 Dec 1653 married Margaret Wright (dau. of Samuel) and their daughter Ruth Bancroft married John Stiles and had many Children; and daughter Rebecca married Samuel Gillett; and son Nathaniel had descendants in Granville, Mass. (and Ohio) and it was probably this connection that took Samuel Gillett from Suffield to Granville.
      Rev. Ezra Stiles, president of Yale from 1772 to 1795 was the son of Rev. Isaac and the grandson of John and Ruth (Bancroft) Stiles, and he wrote of his grandmother's family: 'The Family of Bancroft are a brisk, smart, quick, sensible and lively cast. Grandmother communicated her family spirit to all (her) Children', etc. (Stiles Gens. 1892 and 1895).
      Children, born in Suffield:
      A. Samuel, b. 13 Sep 1702.
      B. John, b. 16 Jan 1704/5. Perhaps the 1724 John Gillett of his uncle Thomas Gillett's 1726 probate record?

      7. 20 Mar 2008 http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~bart/Gillet.htm:
      "John Gillett born 5 Oct. 1644 in Windsor, married Mercy/Mary Barber 8 July 1669 in Windsor, died shortly before 5 Dec. 1682 in Simsbury (Windsor?). Mercy was baptized 12 Oct. 1651 in Windsor, died 29 Mar. (31 Dec.?) 1725 in Suffield, CT. She was a daughter of Thomas & Jane (Joan?) Barber. She married (2) Capt. George Norton 14 (20?) June 1683 in Windsor. John inherited from his father 6 acres of land without the west bounds of Windsor. The inventory of the estate of John Gillett of Windsor was taken 5 Dec. 1682 by John Loomis, Sen. It was valued at £140-14-06. Legatees were widow Mercy Gillett, John age 9, Thomas age 6, Samuel age 5, Benjamin age 2 and Mercy born 30 Jan. last. Widow Mercy Gillett was appointed administratrix with Jonathan Gillett, Peter Browne, John Barber and Samuel Barber to be overseers. [Manwaring, Charles W., "A Digest of Early CT Probate Records, 1677-1687," 121.]
      John and Mercy had 7 children all born in Windsor, one of whom, Samuel Gillett, was born 16 Feb. 1677/8, married Reb ecca Bancroft 22 Jan. 1701/2 in Suffield, CT, died in 1739 in Granville, MA, buried in Suffield. Rebecca was born 23 Feb. 1680 in Springfield, MA. She was a daughter of Thomas & Margaret (Wright) Bancroft of the Springfield, MA, region with residence at the "lower wharf" now Enfield, CT. Samuel & Rebecca Gillett's eldest son John Gillett born 16 Jan. 1704/5 in Suffield, Hampshire Co., MA (now CT), but now of Nowarck in Providence of East Jarsey in America, Dish Turner, conveyed to Nathll Copley of Windsor, Hartford Co., Conn., Shipwrite, land in Suffield & Bedford, Hampshire Co. that came to me from my father Samuel Gillet formerly of Suffield but late of Bedford (now Granville) deceased (Springfield, MA, Deed Book H:229). [NEH&GR, 1947-1948), 101:46 & 285-286 & 102:237.] So here we have a second cousin of my Elijah Gillet also living in Newark, NJ in 1734/5! Note that their early home towns of Suffield and Enfield are only about 5 miles apart and that the ages of John and Elijah are only about 1½ years different.
      Another son of John & Mercy was Thomas Gillet, the great-great-grandfather of William Hooker Gillette, who had Gillette Castle built on the Connecticut River near Hadlyme 1914-1919. [Priest, Alice L., "The Brothers Jonathan & Nathan Gillett & Some of their Descendants" [Mrs. William C. Clark, "William Hooker Gillette, Actor and Playwright," TAG (1968), 45:225-228.]"

      8. From the Gillett family file of the Windsor Historical Society, an article entitled: "The Brothers Jonathan and Nathan Gillett and Some of Their Descendants," comp. by Alice Lucinda Priest, B.L., of Brookline, Mass., pp. 62-63:
      "Samuel Gillett (son of John, g.son of Jonathan), of Suffield, Conn., and Granville, Mass., born in Windsor, Conn., 16 Feb 1677/8. He was five years old when his mother married secondly, Captain George Norton of Suffield, the town that became the boy's home for most of his life. In the later years of his life he lived in Granville, across the line in southwest Mass., and died there 'in 1739, aged 60,' but was buried in Suffield. (Northampton Probate Records give administration of estate 1934 [error?].) He married in Suffield, 22 Jan 1701/2 (int. 20 Dec 1701), Rebecca Bancroft (dau. of Thomas, g.dau. of John), born in Springfield, Mass. (part later of Enfield, Conn.), 23 Feb 1680, a family name that connects with both the Jonathan and Nathan Gillett lines, and the Windsor Stiles family...
      [Article notes that Rebecca Bancroft's brother, "Nathaniel, had descendants in Granville, Mass. (and Ohio) and it was probably this connection that took Samuel Gillett from Suffield to Granville.]
      Children, born in Suffield:
      A. Samuel, b. 13 Sep 1702.
      B. John, b. 16 Jan 1704/5. Perhaps the 1724 John Gillet of his uncle Thomas Gillett's 1726 probate record?
      C. Nathaniel, b. 10 May 1707; m. Phebe ___. Children:
      a. Rebecca, b. in Brookfield, Mass. 26 Feb 1732/3 and bapt. in Suffield.
      b. Phebe, bapt. in Suffield 18 May 1735.
      D. Hannah, b. 19 Jun 1709; d. in Suffield 2 Nov 1746, ae. 37; m. there 26 Feb 1728/9 (int. Jan. 10) Joseph Kent (1898 Kent Gen.).

      F. Gardner, b. 23 Jun 1715.

      9. From the Gillett family file of the Windsor Historical Society, an article entitled: "The Brothers Jonathan and Nathan Gillett and Some of Their Descendants," comp. by Alice Lucinda Priest, B.L., of Brookline, Mass., p. 69, Corrections and Additions:
      "Samuel Gillett (son of John, gson of Jonathan), of Suffield, Conn., and Granville, Mass., in connnection with the note '(Northhampton Probate Records give administration of estate 1734.)' Mr. Corbin adds the following: Deeds at Springfield, Mass., Vol. H, page 229: Dated, Feb. 25, 1734/5 John Gillett formerly of Suffield, Hampshire Co., Mass. but now of Nowarck in Providence of East "Jarsey in America, Dish Turner, conveys to Nathll Copley of Windsor, Harford Co.

      10. The publication "Search for the Passengers of the "Mary & John" 1630," by Burton W. Spear (Toledo, OH; The Mary & John Clearing House, 1989-2004), 5:49-64. These pages have a five generation descendency listing of all the descendants of Jonathan Gillet and Mary Dolbair. I only transcribe my own descendency line which is the seventh child:

      BIRTH:
      1. "New England Historical and Genealogical Register," v. 19, pp. 252, "Springfield Town Records" has the following birth records. Being that the Gregorian calendar was existant at this time with the year changing in March. Rebeca's entry is sequenced so that 1680 continues from Dec to March 5. Under the current calendar, we would say she was born in 1681 even though the record indicates 1680. Also at this early date, Enfield was part of Springfield, Massachusetts even though today it is part of Connecticut:
      "Rebeca Daughtrer of Thomas & Hannah Bancroft, borne, Feb. 23, 1680."
      Note that there is no record for John.

      MARRIAGE:
      1. LDS Online Ordinance Index extracted marriage record per FHL film 185414-185416 (Vital Records of Springfield Massachusetts, 1638-1887), batch M541431. Samuel Gillet and Rebeca Bancroft 22 Jan 1701 at Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts.

      2. From the book "New England Marriages Prior to 1700," p. 304 for the Gillett family: "Gillett, ??? & Rebecca (Bancroft) (1685-), dau. Thomas; b. 1701?; Windsor, CT." [Should "b. 1701" read "m. 1701"?]
