Adonijah Burr1

     Private in Revolution. Kathy Fenton notes that there were 3 known daughters born in Simsbury, possibly more children. Adonijah Burr was the son of Capt. Adonijah Burr and Thankful Holcombe. Adonijah Burr was baptized on 21 January 1750 at Wintonbury (now Bloomfield), CT. He lived in 1790 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT. He lived in 1800 at Hamilton (Madison), Chenango Co., NY.

Zabina Burr1

b. 24 November 1751, d. 10 November 1842
     Zabina served in the Revolutionary War.

Kathy Fenton is working on a preliminary document that details the descendants of Zabina. However, right now we can only make assumptions about the probable children of Zabina, based on the fact that other Burr families seem to have left the Granby area by 1800. Data on the few remaining there probably, then, refers to children of Zabina. Zabina Burr was born on 24 November 1751 at Farmington, Hartford Co., CT. He was the son of Capt. Adonijah Burr and Thankful Holcombe. Zabina Burr was baptized on 15 December 1751 at Wintonbury (now Bloomfield), CT. He married Rosannah Dibble circa 1780 at West Granby, Granby, Hartford Co., CT. Zabina Burr died on 10 November 1842 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT, at age 90.

Kathy cites as the source for the birth date the Rutland Co. History and I assume he was born in Wintonbury like his siblings. The history also says he had seven children. Apparently his mother Thankful was visiting him when she died there in 1827.

Henry Lyman Holcombe1,2

b. 22 August 1808, d. 28 December 1891
by Jan on findagrave.com
     Henry Lyman Holcombe was born on 22 August 1808 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT. He was the son of Thomas Holcombe and Clarinda Pettibone. Henry Lyman Holcombe married Aura Pinney on 24 September 1828 at Granby, Hartford Co., CT. Henry Lyman Holcombe died on 28 December 1891 at Isabella Co., MI, at age 83. He was buried at Rail Road Cemetery, Granby, Hartford Co., CT.

Henry and Anna were enumerated in the 1850 Granby, Hartford Co., CT census. Brother Thomas G. Holcombe age 44. and Tryon Holcombe age 17 were also in the household.

from a newspaper in Isabella Co., MI:

Although for several years past it had been understood that Mr. Holcomb could not live, still when the sad news that he was dead was announced Tuesday morning, it cast a gloom over our little city, and many were the words of regret and sorrow spoken at his loss.

The illness that proved fatal, was contracted about five weeks ago, and although all that medical skill could do, combined with careful nursing and watchful care, he gradually grew weaker and weaker, until Monday evening at ten o’clock when he breathed his last and his spirit returned to God who gave it.

 Mr. Holcomb was born August 22, 1808 in Granby, Hartford county, Connecticut, and was a son of Thomas and Clara Holcomb. He was reared to the calling of a farmer, and was engaged in that vocation until he was about 25 years old. At that age he embraced a seemingly _____? Project for improving his fortune, and operated for four years as a contractor on the canal then being built between New Haven and Northampton. He again engaged in farming for a short time and then went to Georgia and took contract on the Savannah Central railroad, and after two years at this work, he returned to the north; but in 1848 he again went south and became a contractor on the South Western, Savannah & Brunswick railroad, which contract occupied eight years of his life; when he again resumed farming.

 In 1860 he came to St. Louis, then a small hamlet, and made extensive purchases of timber lands, owning about 2,900 acres in the aggregate, a portion of the tract including the land upon which a large portion of the present city of St. Louis now occupies. In 1861 he erected a saw mill, just north of the present site of the new flouring mill; and continued in its management until 1867, when he sold all his property in Michigan, and returned to Connecticut, and resumed operations on his old farm which he had still retained. Six years later he found himself once more in possession of his property here, the parties to whom he had sold, failing to pay for the same. In the mean time the village had been platted and part of the lots sold, and when he came here he continued to dispose of them. In 1869 Mr. Holcomb with his partner, Mr. EVANS, commenced boring for salt, and a depth of 200 feet struck the now famous mineral water..........................................[part of this area in the article is missing] which he managed until 1882, when he disposed of the property and practically retired from active business life, although he was connected with the bank of which he was vice-president when he died.

 In 1881 he built the opera house block and in 1882 the adjoining block of bricks, which today are the pride of St. Louisites. Last fall, after having been practically out of business life for ten years, and at the advanced age of 82 years, his public spirit and enterprise led him to undertake the rebuilding of the flouring mill. With that redoubtable energy, with that will power that had never known failure, that had made his life a successful one from the start, he commenced the work that
should of been left for younger men, and during good and bad weather he has been at the mill giving it his personal attention. The undertaking, at least, shortened his days, for when the mill was just ready for the machinery, he yielded to sickness and November 28, he took to his bed, never to again leave it.

 In every public enterprise he was always at the front, and St. Louis today, owes more to the deceased and his memory, than to any other man who has ever lived among us. The opera house, the row of large brick buildings adjoining it, the Frazier mill, the flouring mill, and his fine residence, all remain as monuments to his memory, and to remind us of what he has done for our little city.

 Mr. Holcomb leaves a wife and one sister to mourn his loss.  Services were held at his late residence yesterday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Vernor and this morning his remains were taken on the 10:25 train to Granby, Connecticut, where they will be interred.
