BRIAN PENDLETON AND HIS DESCENDANTS, 1599-1910, Compiled by Everett HallPendleton, Privatley Printed MCMX, found in the DAR Library, Washington,DC. Page 67.
30. Caleb-4 Pendleton, Jr. (Caleb-3), was baptized 6 June, 1697, atStonington, Conn. (First Ch. Rec.), and died in 1740, at Colchester,Conn. He was living at Westerly, RI, as late as the 9th of Jan. 1736/7,when he witnessed the will of James Babcock of that town. On the 11th ofMarch following, he bought from William and Hannah Douglas, and John andElizabeth Douglass, a hundred acre farm in Colchester, Conn., for whichhe paid 800 pounds (Colchester Land Records, v,1). He removed toColchester shortly afterwards, and the records of that town show he wasadmitted a freeman there, 1 April, 1740. His death occured not longafterwards, as his will, dated 15 May 1740, was probated 10 June 1740.
Caleb-4, Jr., was evidently in prosperous circumstances for thosedays, as the inventory of his estate amounted to over 1600 pounds; itincluded among other items; farm, 1000 pounds; three Indian boy servants,all at 55 pounds; gun and sword, and notes due from Ichabod Randall,Benoni Smith, James Tilkey, Daniel Tennant and Peter Bulkeley. The Indianboy servants of Caleb's may have been the progenitors of the Indiansbearing the name of Pendleton who have turned up in later records.
Caleb-4 Pendleton, Jr., married at Westerly, RI, 25 October 1716,Mary Randall, daughter of John and Abigail Randall; she was born atStonington, 16 December 1798. Less that a year after Caleb's death, shemarried at Bozrah, Conn., 26 Febrary, 1744, Stephen Stark (Fifth Book,"Early Conn. Marriages.")
On the 5th of May, 1741, William Treadway of Colchester,attorney to Stephen Stark, "In right of his wife, Mary Stark, who was thewidow of Caleb Pendleton of Colchester, dec., " moved the Probate Courtat Hartford that her thirds or dowry of the real estate of the saiddeceased be set out to her (Hartford Probate Records, xiii, 88).
Caleb-4 Pendleton's first four children were born at Westerly, RI,and are recorded there on p. 112, Vo. I of Town Meetings, etc. The twoyoungest are named in Caleb's will and perhaps were born at Colchester,Conn.
