  • Notes 
    • Elisha is known to have been one of the first settlers in 1768 of New Providence, MA, now part of Cheshire, MA, where he was Town Treasurer. His will, dated 19 Sept 1791 at Warwick, RI, names his wife Patience and nine children, as well as three Bennet granddaughters.

      I have estimated the birth years of some of his children.
