May 1733, Connecticut
May 2, 1733- My ninth great grandaunt, Esther Cornwall, dies at the age of 83 in Middletown, Middlesex County, Connecticut.
Esther, daughter of William Cornwall & Mary Bailey, was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1650. She first married John Wilcox. John Wilcox was a "payle maker", and has also been listed as fence viewer, grand levy man, and townsman. John owned many tracts of land around town. Wilcox was well along in years when he was married for the fourth time, to Esther Cornwall. She was twenty-one years of age, and he was in his sixties. Esther was two years younger than John's daughter Sarah Ensign.
They had three children: Ephraim, Esther, and Mary. Most of the Wilcoxes in America are descended from Ephraim.
John Wilcox died May 26, 1676. Esther survived him by fifty-seven years. She was married secondly to John Stow of Middletown.
