  First Church of Stonington The Cameron and Paige Report, http://wc.rootsweb.com/~laplante BRIAN PENDLETON AND HIS DESCENDANTS, 1599-1910, Compiled by Everett HallPendleton, Privatley Printed MCMX, found in the DAR Library, Washington,DC. Page 71. 32. Brian-4 Pendleton (Caleb-3), was baptized 15 Jun 1701, at theFirst Church, Stonington, Conn. We have no record of his death and fewfacts about him appear upon the Westerly records. He lived there and atStonington until about 1750, when he removed to Dutchess Co., NY, thusbecoming the first Pendleton to settle west of Connecticut. On the 18th of October, 1727, he convayed to James Pendleton threeacres of land in Westerly, "Situated on the northwest corner of land Inow live on" (WlL.E., v, 211), and on 6th April 1730, he sold land to hisbrother Caleb (Ibid., v, 182). Brian-4 Pendleton was admitted fireeman at Westerly, RI, 4 May 1731.On the 29th February 1747/8, he gave Benoni Smith receipt for legacy lefthim by his father, Caleb-3 Pendleton. This receipt was witnessed by JohnPendleton (Westerly C & P. Rec, iii, 330). According to the schedule of Capt. James-2 Pendleton's will Brian-4was to receive certain lands at Watch Hill if his brother Caleb-4, Jr.,died before their father, Caleb-3. As this event cames to pass, Brian-4fell heir to this property which he disposed of by an interesting deeddated 17 Feb 1752 (WLE, vii, 388), of which the following is an abstract: "I, Brian Pendleton, Late of Westerly . . . RI . . . But now ofBatoman's Precinet, Dutchess County . . . NY, yoeman . . . for . . . 60pounds paid by Benajah Pendleton of Stonington . . . Conn. . . . yeoman(son of Caleb Pendleton, late of Colchester Deed) . . . have given,granted . . . a certain Tract or Parcell of Land Lying in the Town ofWesterly aforesd, as a place known by ye name of Watch Hill, containingabout three hundred acres . . . it being all ye land which my honeredgrandfather James Pendleton Late of Westerly Deed. gave in his last will& Testament to his wife during her natural life & after her Decease to myfather Caleb Pendleton Late Deed. . . .& in a schedual anexed to saidwill ye said land was given (after my said Father's decease) to my abovesaid Deceased Brother Caleb Pendleton, and that if he should die beforemy above said Father Then the said Land was given to me which bothhappened that my said brother Caleb Pendleton did die before our fatherCaleb leaving ye aforesd Benajah to be his heir." No record of Brian-4 Pendleton married at Stonington, Conn., 11March 1725, Anna Wilcox (First Ch. Rec.). She was probably the daughterof William and Dorothy (Palmer) Wilcox, born at Stonington, 14 June 1700,as is indicated by deed of gift given by William Wilcox of Stonington, tohis grandson, John Pendleton of Colchester, on the 2nd December, 1754(Stonington Deeds).
