• Notes

  65 Edmund-5, 3rd., b. 8 Jun, 1738. He was undoubtedly the EdmundPendleton of Stratford, Conn., who served as a private in Capt. IsaiahBaldwin's mounted company, Col. Andrew Burr's regiment, from Aug. 7th toAug. 23rd, 1757, at the time of the alarm for the reelief of Fort WilliamHenry and "adjacent vicinity." (Conn. Hist. Soc. Collections, Vol. ix, p.200; French & Indian War Rolls). While the record does not refer to himas Edmund, Jr., yet his father was nearly sixty years of age at this timeand would not have been likely to have undertaken such an expedition. It is evident that Edmund-5 died unmarried, as the Porbate Recordsat Fairfield, Conn. (1764-1767, p. 137), show that on the 25th of Sept.1765, William Pendleton of Stratford was appointed administrator on theestate of Edmund Pembleton, late of Stratford, deceased, and gave bond.The accounting was not filed until 7th of Mar, 1792, when theadministrator submitted his statement showing that the estate in 1765amounted to 112.7.0 pounds, and in 1766 expenses to said estate were71.19.0 pounds. The balance was divided equally among the heirs, Solomon,Daniel, David, and William Pendleton, -- "D." Pendleton signing asexecutor to Solomon Pendleton, deceased, -- who certified over theirsignatures "that said Pendleton estate is settled as per this Acct.Current" (Ibid., 1787-1792, p. 595.)
