From Bronson’s Waterbury: Samuel “had a grant of land from the proprietors when he was but eighteen years old, ‘three acres at Pine swamp by the path that leads to the saw-mill.’ Jan. 20, 1692, he had two acres granted ‘on the side of Chestnut Hill near to his boggy meadow convenient for a yard.’ (for drying cloth.) He lived on the corner of East main and Cherry streets, where he had built a house before Sept. 1703. This place, bounded west on Stephen Welton and Samuel Stanley, north on John Bronson, south and easst on highway, he conveyed Jan. 26, 1705/6 to his brother Thomas, the latter having built him a barn and chimney and deeded to him sixteen acres of land Meadow, where Samuel ‘had set his house’ as early as Dec. 21, 1702, and where he was certainly living before Dec. 1705. He was probably the first settler of Naugatuck. He erected a fulling-mill on Fulling-Mill Brook (so called from the mill) about 1709, and his house was by the brook. Some of his lands ran across the road that led to New Haven.
“Samuel Hickox died in the Great Sickness June 3, 1713, and his widow Oct. 17, 1749. They had ten children, six of whom lived to be married. Ebenezer and John were bachelor proprietors. The first, after 1741, removed to Danbury [Jacobus says otherwise], and Norwalk and the last before July 1720 to Durham.”
