John Case1,2,3,4,5,6
b. 1616, d. 21 February 1703/4
John Case was born in 1616 at Aylesham, England.7 He married Sarah Spencer, daughter of William Spencer and Agnes Harris, circa 1657. John Case married Elizabeth Moore, daughter of John Moore. John Case left a will on 21 November 1700. He died on 21 February 1703/4 at Simsbury, Hartford Co., CT.
"It is interesting to speculate about who John Case was on the basis of what we know. Although there is no age recorded anywhere for John, it is likely that he was not much older than Sarah, who was born in Boston in 1635, and that he was a resident of Hartford during the time prior to his marriage. It also seems probable that he came from a good family for it is unlikely that he would have had the opportunity to know Sarah, much less marry her, if he himself did not have a comparable background. Most parents in early New England were very careful about their daughters associations and it was generally necessary for a young man to secure the permission of a girl's parents prior to courting her. This concept was firmly embodied in New england law, which made it a crime punishable by a fine for a young man to see a girl without first obtaining her parents' consent. It is also apparent that John had traveled widely in southern New England and had either lived at or visited both Maspeth Kills, near Brooklyn on Long Island, and Hartford, Connecticut, by 1656." - Charles Case
He resided in Windsor until spring of 1669, when he settled at Weatogue (Simsbury). His house in Windsor, (probably build by a former owner) was on the corner of Mill highway and Bloomfield Ave; lot ext. on ave. about 33 rods an d14 on Mill road. His lot "whereon his house standeth" had not been recorded before 1669. "It was first gn. to Benj. Newberry, now Captain, and hath been possessed by several men before." He sold his house and lot and shop to Nath. Cook, 1689. He was the first constable of Massacoe (now Simsbury) CT, in 1669 and represented the town several times at General Court.
John's will named his wife, Elizabeth, six sons and four daughters. Samuel Spencer of Hartford and John Case, his son, were executors.
The Alderman Genealogy is more specific about John's early years: "John sailed from Gravesend, England, on September 3, 1635, on the ship Dorset and landed at Newport, R.I., but settled in Windsor, Conn. He was a farmer and owner of large acreages of land. He spend some years in Newton on Long Island, but in 1656 he returned to Connecticut and 1667 settled in Simsbury, formerly known as Masaco."
