2437. Richard Bristow. Richard died in Guilford, CT in Sep 1683.207

Richard Bristow settled at Guilford, Connecticut. He married twice, but had no children and left his estate to his nephew Samuel, son of his brother Henry who settled at New Haven.

From Ralph D. Smyth’s article “Richard and Henry Bristow, or Bristol, of Guilford and New Haven, Conn., and their descendants” in the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, vol. 53, (1903) pages 262–266, http://archive.org/details/newenglandhistor1903wate :207
    Richard and Henry Bristow were brothers, the first settling at Guilford, and the other at New Haven, soon after the settlement of those places. Richard Bristow was at Guilford as early as the first division of lands there, and received a “parcel of upland & rocks” next Alexander Chalker’s land, containing about five acres. This land went to his nephew Samuel Bristow. He was a member of the church, and took the oath of freeman early. He was a cooper, and was seventh in the list of proprietors at the third division of lands, in 1672. His list then was £80. 10. 0., about half that of Gov. William Leete. The Bristow apples were named for him. He bore some small offices in the town of Guilford, and was overseer for weights and measures, in 1650.
Richard first married Elinor. Elinor died in Guilford, CT on 14 Apr 1658.207
In 1665 Richard second married Susannah.207 Susannah died in Guilford, CT in Dec 1677.207

Susanna first married Thomas Blachley, second Richard Bristow.
2438. Henry Bristol. Born ca 1625 in England. Henry died in New Haven, CT 29 Jan 1694/95. Occupation: Cooper.

Henry’s first wife was named Rebecca.207 His second wife was Lydia Brown.

Henry was in New Haven by 1647. Twelve of these Henry’s 14 children survived.25

Henry’s parents are often given as Daniel and Hester (Sperry) Bristol, but without any reference. That’s probably a mistake as Henry’s son Daniel did marry a Hester Sperry.
