Origins
The origin of Edward Griswold was discovered and documented by Genevieve Tylee Kiepura in the 1963 TAG article Griswold Ancestry in England, and presented again in the Griswold Family Association of America's 1999 publication, The Griswold Family: 12 Generations in England. The research found that Edward was the son of George Griswold by his first wife Dousabel (probably Leigh). See the Griswold Family publication for an explanation of Edward's relatedness to other colonial New England Griswolds.
[edit]
Life in New England
Came with Rev. Mr. HUIT from England; was in Windsor 1639; removed to Killingworth, Connecticut, called then "Kenilworth," presumably in honor of his native place. Windsor granted him twenty-nine acres, bound south and east by the brook, east by river and Indian Reservation (Indian Neck). He removed with the first settlers to Hamonoscett; George and Joseph had the homestead. In 1674, he was granted two hundred acres of land at the north end of Lyme.
Very active in the early community, serving as:
first deacon of the church
first delegate to the General Court
Justice of the Peace in Windsor
Deputy from Windsor 1658-1662
enrolled as Deputy in 1667
Deputy for Killingworth in 1678
nominated for assistant and as commissioner
representative of Killingworth in every court 1678-1689 (during which he was repeatedly made Commissioner)
committee of the County Court to see what could be done toward a Latin school at New London for the County New London (1678)

Notes:
On-line genealogies show Mindwell born either 1680 or 1687, but we have no citation for either. The early genealogies such as Stiles-The History and genealogies of Ancient Windsor do not show Mindwell as a daughter of Daniel, but do mention that she married Ebenezer Hayden and is probably a granddaughter of Edward (actually great granddaughter). But the book 'The Griswold family : the first five generations in America' does show this relationship as evidenced by the following post by Cora Lee Griswold.
We show Mindwell was b. c. 1682/83 in Windsor, CT. She died in Harwinton, CT, but we have no date. A descendant of Edward, her lineage is followed in the FIRST FIVE GENERATIONS (61/108). Mindwell was the daughter of Daniel Griswold and Mindwell BISSELL. Besides David, her marriage with Ebenezer produced the following children: Ebenezer m. 1) Mary TRUMBLE 2) Dorothy LOOMIS and Mindwell who m. Rev. Jedediah DEWEY.
Mindwell married Ebenezer Hayden on 12 Jan 1708/09. Ebenezer (son of Daniel Hayden and Hannah Wilcockson) was born on 14 Dec 1681 in Connecticut, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:
Abigail born 1693 and Abigail born 1714 appear to be the same person! See her fathers will, Abigail is listed, but is not listed as a minor. This person, b. 1714, should probably be removed, but I will leave here here, as most of the published genealogies show her.

Notes:
See her fathers will. Mary is listed as aminor age 13. But that just cannot be correct.

- Reference Number: 6622
- Birth: 1700
- Birth: 20 Sep 1703, Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut, USA
- Will: 28 Jan 1769, Hartford, Connecticut, USA
Notes:
Many published genealogies list his birth date as 20 Sep 1703, but nowhere can I find the source of that date. The Barbour collection of Connecticut births lists the birth of 8 or Joseph's 10 children. Only John and Edward are not found. His fathers will in 1716 lists him as 16 years old. His death record lists him as 68 in 1769. There is some doubt then as to the actual birth date.
The Phelps Family Book has Anna Hosford as the mother of the first 6 children and has her dying in about 1740. It then has her sister Mindwell Hosford as the mother of the last 4 children.
The Hosford Book, which I have not seen, supposedly on page 33 has Anna as the mother of all the children and as living until at least 1773. It has Mindwell marrying Daniel Tillotson and moving to New Hampshire where she died in 1807 on page 35. Obviously it would be nice to find a copy of that book.
The History of Ancient Windsor by Stiles on P. 568 shows John as marrying 2nd to Mindwell (Hosford?). The last name being in parenthesis with a question mark indicates that the name is uncertain.
The Barbour Collection of records shows Mindwell marrying Daniel Tillotson on 16 Sept1742 in Tolland. It does not show a second marriage for John. It shows the birth of the first 7 children, noted as son of John, without listing the mother. The last 3 children do not show.
The will of John Phelps in 1769 shows his wife's name as Anne and also shows the names of the remaining children.
My conclusion is that Anna Hosford was the mother of all the children.
