From John Sibun’s book Our Town’s Heritage 1708-1958 Hebron, Connecticut, published by Douglas Library, Hebron, CT, 1975:
    “Here in 1706, so legend has it, the wives of Shipman and Phelps came to find their husbands. One evening the two original settlers heard strange sounds echoing across the valley, and an investigation revealed their families standing on the rock [Prophet’s Rock] calling for them. It is conjecture whether they really could be heard. Be that as it may, the men were overjoyed to be reunited with their families. Martha Crow Phelps thought her place was with her husband and on her own initiative had resolved the situation. Bringing with her the goods that would make life in a virgin area more bearable, she camped along the way as the trip apparently took a few days. It is said she did not herry, but negotiated the rough going stoically, clutching he Bible to herself as she lay down in the shelter of rocks and rested under fallen trees. Born in Windsor 36 years before, it could not have been an easy decision to make the journey, for Martha’s mother had ‘disappeared’ many years before when she had set out on a like journey to seek her husband.”

On 4 Nov 1686 Martha married Timothy Phelps (6872) , son of Lieut. Timothy Phelps (1902) (1 Sep 1639-bet 2 Mar 1716 and 28 Sep 1719) & Mary Griswold (4850) (5 Oct 1644-27 Nov 1715).93 Born on 1 Nov 1663 in Windsor, CT.229 At the age of <1, Timothy was baptized on 8 Nov 1663.229 Timothy died in 1729 in Hebron, CT.

From John Sibun’s book Our Town’s Heritage 1708-1958 Hebron, Connecticut, published by Douglas Library, Hebron, CT, 1975:
    “The first white men to settle in town were Timothy Phelps and William Shipman, who arrived in Hebron from Windsor in June 1704. The area, then a wilderness, was used by the Indians as a hunting ground, and the few white men who knew of its existence passed through to other locations. The first two houses were located along Route 85 sourth of today’s center. Approximately on what is now the Hilding driveway, Shipman built his homestead and Phelps constructed his home across the road on the land now owned by the Porter family. It is possible they worked on their property during the summer months only for the first two years, and returned to their families in Windsor when winter set in.”

Timothy moved with his younger brother Nathaniel to Hebron in 1690. Hebron was incorporated in 1708, and Timothy was one of the first selectmen. Another brother Joseph moved there later.
