Notes

a.	Note: #676 Was bound out until he was 21 years old to William Leach of the town now (1900) known as Sherman. It is said Mr. Leach fooled Hezekiah out of a year by pretending he was born in 1790. He led the singing in the church in New Fairfield for many years. He & his wife were members of the Methodist church in New Fairfield and he was a class leader. He was a farmer and lived 1st on the David Wakeman farm, the last place on the road to Ball's pond from the part called "the Bogs". His wife's father lived on the next farm above and came into Hezekiah's possession thru his wife. Later he bought the lower farm (which he 1st lived on) to eventually own both. He was drafted into the army in 1812 assigned to Capt. Charles Parks' company & stationed at Bridgeport, CT from July 14, 1812 to September 9, 1814. Received 40 acres and then 120 acres for his service in the War of 1812.
