• Notes

  [Spicer Family File.FTW] Letters of administration on the estate of Ezekiel Spicer, farmer "who died recently at Crum Mons Precinct, were granted by the Lieut. Governor at Ft. George, City of New York, April 24, 1760 to Roswell Hopkins, a merchant of Amenia, N. Y. He married Luce Shephard6 Aug. 30, 1738, in Pomfret, Conn. It is thought she was the daughter of Samuel and Eleanor (Whitney) Shepard of Plainfield, b. Nov. 14, 1718. The Whitney Genealogy states that this Luce died single in 1735. Luce wife of Ezekiel Spicer probably died soon after 1753 the date of birth of her daughter Susannah, for in Amenia, N. Y. we find recorded the birth of Sarah, to Ezekiel and Martha Spicer, Oct. 23, 1759. Ezekiel Spicer evidently left Pomfret in 1747 or 1748 as he disappears from the records of Pomfret March 24, 1746-7, and removed to Middletown, Conn., as the record of his marriage and births of his children to 1753 is found there. In 1759 he bought land in Dutchess County, New York, from Jos. Smith.
