      4. The book "Ancestors and Descendants of Thomas Rice Lyon and his wife Harriet Wade Rice with related families," by Patty Barthell Myers (2003), pp. 448-51:
      "JOSEPH LOOMIS, b. Eng., c1590; d. Windsor, Conn., 25 Nov 1658. He m. Messing, County Essex, England 30 Jun 1614 MARY WHITE. She was bpt. Shalford, England, 24 Aug 1590; d. Windsor, Conn., 23 Aug 1652, d/o Robert White and Bridget Allgar of Messing.
      Joseph Loomis was a woolen draper in Braintree, Essex Co., England; sailed from London 11 Apr 1638 in the Susan and Ellen, and arrived at Boston 17 Jul 1638, living for about a year at Dorchester, Mass. It is mentioned in the town records of Windsor, Vol. 1, that on the 2d of Feb., 1640, he had granted him from the Plantation 21 acres adjoining Farmington Aver, on the west side of the Connecticut river; also several large tracts of land on the east side of the Connecticut, partly from the town and partly by purchase. He probably came to Windsor in the summer or autumn of 1639, and he is generally supposed to have come in the company with Rev. Ephraim Huet, who arrived at Windsor 17 Aug 1639. He brought with him five sons, all of whom were freemen 7 Oct 1669, and three daughters. The marriages of these children are recorded in the town records of Windsor, as were the births of their children, but as the dates of birth of Joseph's children are not recorded, it is difficult to determine the order of seniority. His house was situated near the mouth of the Farmington river on the "Island," so called because at every great freshet it became temporarily an island by the overflowing of the Connecticut river.
      In the Records of particular Court for the colony of Connecticut, Vol 2, p. 115, is recorded the agreement of the children of Mr. Joseph Loomis, respecting the division of the estate of said deceased as approved by the Court 2 Dec 1658.

      (Manwaring, Charles W., A Digest of the Early Connecticut Probate Records, Hartford District. Vol. 1, 1650-1663, pp. 135-6.)
      It is believed that the order in which the children were named in the division of the estate indicates the relative ages of the children. Further, Joseph Loomis, the younger, and John Loomis had land granted to them from the Windsor Plantation in 1643. The other sons acquired no land until several years afterward. The marriages of the sons, as recorded at Windsor, took place in the order of the names mentioned above.
