Notes
a. Note:   ..Henry was one of the early settlers of Stratford CT and lived there for approximately thirty seven years. He then moved to Judeah (now Woodbury), where he died at his son Henry's home.

  "CASTLE, HENRY, Woodbury 1682, then resid. with Henry, jr. perhaps his s. and d. 2 Feb. 1698, being the first d. on rec. there, but to find wh. as his f. would be more agreea. to us." Source: Savage, "Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England Before 1692, Vol. I.
  Henry is listed as a Puritan in historical documentaries and apparently could read and write as he signed his name on his wife's step father's will dated 3/5/1666/7.
