Colebrook, Litchfield, Connecticut	Treasure Cities, Volume 4 Sandisfield, Massachusetts New York-Massachusetts land dispute Housatonic Township No. 3 The Proprietors offered inducements to settle in disputed lands Norton Fletcher and Willard Platt assisted my research Appleton and Robert Stillman were major property holders Appleton’s homesite and rock-work I haven’t discovered Grandma Amanda’s resting place. Thanks to Bob Grigg, we’re now fairly confident that she did not remarry but lived as the Widow Amanda Stillman Rebecca’s and Daniel’s stones Our Hurds seem to have maintained a very low profile Sandisfield contributed to the Revolutionary War effort Lieutenant Benjamin Smith lies in the Sandisfield Center Cemetery with a star and flag now it appears that it was not he but his son Benjamin and other family members who took part Grandpa Appleton’s veteran status is amply documented Our Smiths and Stillmans of Sandisfield were notably active citizens Grandpa Daniel Hurd of Sandisfield, Massachusetts, appears to have died both intestate and insolvent Step-Grandma doesn’t look like a gold-digger Grandpa Appleton’s will named his brother Robert guardian of his minor children John and Rachel Robbins Stillman were prominent among the founders of the Sandisfield/ Colebrook community John’s stone in Beech Hill Cemetery denotes his status as a Revolutionary soldier. original records that Grandpa John was indeed a Selectman when the Town was formed The Stillmans joined our Mayflower line with the marriage of Grandma Amanda Hurd to Appleton Stillman John and Rachel had five sons and four daughters, of whom at least eight lived to marry great-grandchildren of Nicholas and Constance Hopkins Snow set up housekeeping two hundred miles west from their birthplace in Eastham three of our lines met and conjoined in Sandisfield and in neighboring Colebrook, Connecticut The Proprietors’ Book records that our Benjamin and his brother Solomon were offered forty shillings a head to settle in the new Township Inasmuch as all the Smiths of that generation are buried in the Berkshires, we gather that they accepted the inducement. their son (our Uncle) Lot Smith (b. 1756) was the first birth of a male child in the new settlement suggest that they had then arrived fairly recently In the Sandisfield Center Cemetery, Lieutenant Benjamin Smith’s headstone stands with the flag and star insignia which identify him as a soldier of the American Revolution. Apart from little Elkins and Grandma Rebecca, I haven’t yet found the graves of any of this generation It isn’t as if the family’s migration from Sandisfield to Colebrook was a big deal, in a geographical sense. This map may help us understand why it took a cash inducement to bring our Smiths from their Cape Cod home to the wilderness of the Berkshires. Grandpa and Grandma Hurd lie in the Beech Plain Cemetery Near the Smiths, back down in Sandisfield Center, is this intriguing stone. Willard’s a former Selectman of the Town of Sandisfield. Norton is President Emeritus of the Sandisfield Historical Society. Each time I have come to visit (2005, 2007, and 2009), they have been most generous with their time and knowledge. John and his sons, particularly Grandpa Appleton and Uncle Robert, invested heavily Sandisfield’s only lodging-house, the New Boston Inn I was aware that Sandisfield/Colebrook was an important family history site for us The Sandisfield/Colebrook neighborhood is well off the proverbial beaten track all of John’s and Rachel’s children were born in Connecticut, except for Robert Before Sandisfield was, the Proprietors of Housatonic Township #3 functioned as an embryonic Board of Selectmen Meanwhile, our Smiths have settled in and remained an important part of the Sandisfield scene, long after the founding Stillmans had moved on to the newer settlement in Colebrook. I’ve been guided too much, under too many diverse circumstances, to retain any confidence in coincidence But an accident firmed up our plans in a way we hadn’t anticipated. Before returning to Utah, we had documented the “Seven Little Stillmans” from their Colebrook gravestone, the only surviving record of their brief lives. And we made a stop, on their behalf, at the Nauvoo Temple. Norton Fletcher of Sandisfield, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, was the past president of the Sandisfield Historical Society Norton Fletcher and Willard Platt, by the gravestone of Lieutenant Benjamin Smith, my sixth great-grandfather, in the Sandisfield Center Cemetery Then they showed me some documents from the pre-Revolutionary town’s records, and we went to the headquarters of the Sandisfield Historical Society, where we perused and I photographed more old records, and where Norton made me official with a Sandisfield Historical Society baseball cap. I knew already that many of my Stillmans were very nearby, in the Beech Hill Cemetery, across the Connecticut line to the south. found the Beech Hill Cemetery. Photographed the gravestones of many Stillmans and took the results back to Somerville for analysis. All this was a powerful emotional experience for me, especially later, when I was able to figure out the inscriptions on the grave that seven infant first-cousin Stillmans share on Beech Hill Only days later, Norton wrote that he’d located my elusive Grandpa Daniel Hurd’s grave Norton and Willard were my guests for lunch in the Gentlemen’s Parlor As in Sandisfield the day before, I spent my Colebrook day chasing around with the excellent Bob Grigg and snapping photos of various records.
