      ; from Ancestral Records: "a Deputy, 1649 to 1661, and one of the patentees of Connecticut, named in the Royal Charter of 1662."1

; from Ancestry.com: [quote]Genealogical and Family History of the State of Connecticut: A Record of the Achievements of Her People in the Making of a Commonwealth and the Founding of a Nation. Volume II

John Deming , the immigrant ancestor, was one of the early settlers of Wethersfield, Connecticut . He recorded his homestead here in 1641 as a house, barn, and five acres of land, bounded by High street on the west, the Great Meadow on the east, Thomas Standish 's house on north, and Richard Crabbe 's place on the south. The dates of his birth, marriage and death, have not been found. He married Honor, daughter of Richard Treat , whose second wife, Alice Gaylord , may have been her mother. It is very likely that she was his only wife, and the mother of all his children.

It is said by some genealogists that he was among the very first settlers of Wethersfield in 1635 , but proof is lacking, though it is very probable. The first mention on the public records after his house is recorded, was March 2, 1642 , when he was one of the jury of the "particular court." December 1, 1645 , he was among the deputies as J. Demon , and in 1656 as John Dement , when he was appointed one of a committee, as a deputy, "to give the best safe advice they can to the Indians." On May 21, 1657 , he was a deputy to the general court as John Deming , and the next year as John Dement . He was deputy at different courts until 1667 , and was also a litigant in several lawsuits.

He is one of those named in the famous charter of Connecticut , in which King Charles granted to them and to those who should afterwards become associated with them the lands of Connecticut , "in free and common socage," and established a colonial government with unusual privileges. He was among the first to obtain a lot across the river from Wethersfield , and within the boundaries of the town, on the "Naubuc Farms," afterwards incorporated into the town of Glastonbury . He obtained it in the year 1640 , appearing as John Demion . He probably never lived there, as he had a house in Wethersfield the next year, and he sold the land on the east side of the river to Samuel Wyllis before 1668 . He also owned land in Eastbury for which he was taxed in 1673 .

He became a freeman in 1669 , as John Deming Senior, together with John Deming Junior and Jonathan Deming . He bought much land in Wethersfield at different times, and some of this he gave to his sons before he died. He signed a codicil to his will February 3, 1692 , and this is the last recorded act of his life, and he very likely died soon after this year, though his will was not proved until November 21, 1705 .

There is no record of the dates of birth of his children, and the names of them have been taken from his will. He left his home lot with everything on it, as well as adjoining meadows, to his son Samuel . To his son David he left all the materials and tools in his shop. To his other children he left money and movable property. He appointed 932 his son Samuel the executor. His will shows that he was a man of some property and that he had some trade. David , who was left the tools, was a rope maker, but it is not known whether or not this was his father's trade. It is probable that his wife died before his will was made. Eunice and Sarah Standish , mentioned in the will as cousins, were daughters of Thomas Standish , whose land adjoined Deming 's. The connection of this family with that of Captain Miles Standish has not been found.

He was undoubtedly a prominent man in Connecticut colony affairs. Trumbull speaks of him as one of "the fathers of Connecticut ," and Hinman says that he held the office of constable of Wethersfield in 1654 , which shows that he possessed the full confidence of the governor. His name often appears on the records of the colony with the prefix Mr., a courtesy paid only to men of some prominence. It is also said that he was a representative at fifty sessions of the general court, while in Hollister's roll of deputies it is said that it was nineteen sessions.

Children: John , born September 9, 1638 ; Jonathan , about 1639 ; A daughter, about 1643 , married a Beckley , of Wethersfield ; Rachel , about 1644 , married John Morgan , of Wethersfield ; Samuel , about 1646 ; Mary , about 1648 , married John Hurlburt ; Mercy , about 1651 , married Thomas (or Joseph) Wright ; David , about 1652 ; Sarah , about 1654 , married Samuel Moody of Hartford ; Ebenezer , mentioned below.

Birth:      Jan. 9, 1623

Death:      Feb., 1693
Wethersfield
Hartford County
Connecticut, USA

Richard Treat, a son of Richard and Alice (Gaylord) Treat, was baptized January 9, 1622/3 at Pitminster, Somerset, England. His father Richard Treat brought his family to America soon after June, 1637 and settled in Wethersfield as one of its early settlers, and had landholdings recorded there by the February 24, 1640/1 land inventory.

Richard Treat, Jr. was commissioned Ensign of the Wethersfield Train Band in February 1652/3 and later was commissioned Corporal of the Colonial Troop of Horse on March 11, 1657/8. Both commissions were determined by Donald Lines Jacobus to belong to Richard Treat, Jr. rather than either belonging to his father, even though the commission as corporal could be considered a demotion from ensign, yet the scope of the latter "colonial" commission was greater than that of the local first "Wethersfield" commission.

He married Sarah Coleman (1642-1734), daughter of immigrant Thomas Coleman and his unknown first wife, in about 1660 and they had 2 sons and 2 daughters. Ensign Richard Treat died in Wethersfield at age 70 in 1693. His burial is likely in the Wethersfield Village Cemetery, but the marker was one of the perishable types from that time that is no longer visible.

      ;
from CT State Library website: [quote]Robert Treat was baptized February 25, 1624/5 at Pitminster, Somerset, England, the son of Richard and Alice (Gaylord) Treat, and was one of ten children. His family immigrated to Watertown, Massachusetts about 1638, and by 1639 was in Wethersfield, Connecticut. Robert, then 16 years old, had moved on to Milford by November 1639 and is listed in the town records as one of those designated to survey lands, an unusual honor for his age. He returned to Wethersfield after the survey and was elected ratemaker (tax collector) there in 1647. In that same year, he married Jane Tapp, the daughter of Edmund Tapp. According to tradition, they were married at the Tapp house at a spinning bee on Christmas night. However, no record of the marriage appears in the State Library's Barbour Collection of Connecticut Vital Records or Church Records Index.
     By 1649 the couple had moved to Milford, which was part of the New Haven Colony. There, with the lands he had purchased and with lands received from his father-in-law, Robert Treat became a holder of extensive properties. The residents of Milford elected him, on several occasions, to buy and divide public lands. He became known as a person who had a talent for settling boundaries and other disputes between people. He also served as a trustee, an executor of wills, and an appraiser of property, with his name in many of the early probate records.
     Robert Treat was a Deputy from Milford to the General Court of the New Haven Colony in 1653. He served as chief military officer of Milford in 1654 and then four more years as Deputy, 1655-59. In 1660 he was appointed as a Magistrate of the New Haven Colony. Robert and Jane Treat's seven children were born in Milford.
     Charles I, King of England, had been condemned and beheaded in 1649 during Oliver Cromwell's rule. The judges of the Parliamentary Court that passed the king's death sentence were known as regicides. Charles II, Charles' son, was restored to power in 1660. He received information that two of the regicide judges, William Goffe and Edward Whalley, were hiding in the New Haven Colony. Charles II sent an order to the New Haven Colony in 1661 to find and arrest these judges. The New Haven colonial legislature ordered all officials of the colony to comply and make thorough searches in their home areas. Robert Treat ordered the Milford search, but Goffe and Whalley were not found. They did, however, stay there for some time afterward, and were reported to have had Robert Treat as a friend.
     Settlement of both the Colony of Connecticut and the New Haven Colony had started without official charters, at a time when there was much political upheaval in England. Conditions stabilized when Charles II was restored to the throne. Charles II began to interest himself matters concerning the American colonies, one issue being the legality of the Colony of Connecticut. Connecticut realized that if it did not send a representative to the king, penalties and unfavorable conditions could be imposed upon it. In 1662 the Colony of Connecticut sent John Winthrop, a consummate diplomat, to England to obtain a charter. The New Haven Colony did not send anyone. The king, in listening to Winthrop, decided to grant a charter, but merged the New Haven Colony with the Colony of Connecticut.
     The merger came as a surprise to most inhabitants of the New Haven Colony, and many of them were unhappy with the situation. Robert Treat, although upset, continued serving in his position as magistrate for four more years. Treat served briefly in the General Court of the newly-merged Colony of Connecticut but in 1666 moved to New Jersey, where he and several others purchased land for what became the town of Newark. He served as the Newark town clerk for a year and as Newark's delegate to the New Jersey colonial legislature from 1667 until 1672.
     In 1672, Robert Treat returned to Connecticut. He was immediately made second-in-command of the New Haven forces that were mustering for a war with the Dutch. From 1673-1676, he was elected as an Assistant to the General Court of the Colony of Connecticut. The year 1675 saw an uprising of Native American tribes throughout New England, known as King Phillip's War after the English name for the Wampanoag Indian chief, Metacomet. Robert Treat was made Major and Commander-in-Chief of the Connecticut forces, which, under his leadership, helped save the town of Springfield, Massachusetts from destruction.
     The war ended in August of 1676, when King Phillip was killed. Treat was then elected as Deputy Governor of the Colony of Connecticut, filling in the remainder of the term of the preceding Deputy Governor, William Leete, who had been advanced to the governorship when Governor John Winthrop had died. Governor William Leete died in April of 1683. Robert Treat became acting governor, and then was elected to the post annually for the next fifteen years.
     One major problem that Robert Treat inherited as a new governor in 1683 was Sir Edmund Andros. Governor of New Jersey and New York until 1683, Andros had claimed since 1675 that his jurisdiction included much of Connecticut. He had sent armed forces to enforce the claim, but Connecticut turned them back. Connecticut appealed to England, but nothing was settled.
     By 1683, Andros had been made Governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony and Thomas Dongan was the new governor of New York. Dongan continued Andros' policies by claiming all lands west of the Connecticut River for New York. Governor Treat and members of the Court of Assistants met with Dongan and, through diplomacy, were able to settle the matter with only the loss of the town of Rye to New York. However, the following years saw several writs issued against the Connecticut Colony in an attempt to divide Connecticut between New York and Massachusetts.
     Charles II died in 1685 and his brother, James, no friend of Connecticut, came to the throne. It was James' plan to unite all the New England colonies, and he appointed Andros as Governor of the Dominion of New England. Andros demanded that Connecticut give up its Charter.
     The Connecticut General Assembly was alarmed, for the Charter of 1662 was a generous one, and members of the Assembly feared that Andros would take away some of the liberties of the citizens of Connecticut. Governor Treat responded by diplomatically delaying the legal proceedings, over many months, on the grounds that some legal processes had not been done correctly and that Connecticut's appeal to the king should receive a response. But on October 31, 1687, Edmund Andros came to Hartford in person to receive Connecticut's Charter.
     An afternoon meeting was the main feature of Andros' visit. Governor Treat took the opportunity to speak of how the Colony of Connecticut had been built with hard work and sacrifice and what the Charter meant to the citizens. It was an era when speeches of several hours were not uncommon. According to legend, Treat spoke throughout the afternoon and into the evening, when the candles were lit. The Charter was on the table. Suddenly there was a rush of wind from a door, blowing the candles out. By the time they were relit, the Charter was gone, hidden in an oak tree (later known as the Charter Oak) until the danger was past.
     Andros never physically possessed the Charter of 1662, but still took control of Connecticut. Governor Robert Treat was made one of fifty advisors to Andros, and did what he could to maintain favorable conditions. King James was deposed in 1688, and Andros was thrown out of power in 1689. The Colony of Connecticut resumed its former government, with Robert Treat as governor. However, in 1692 a political crisis for Connecticut arose when the new governor of New York, Benjamin Fletcher, arrived with an appointment that gave him full power to command Connecticut's militia as well as the military forces of New York. Robert Treat refused to transfer command. The General Assembly of Connecticut voted to send Fitz-John Winthrop, the son of John Winthrop, Jr., to England to obtain a decision as to whether the Charter of 1662 was still valid, and 2,200 of 3,000 freemen backed up that vote. Winthrop left for England late in 1693 and made his case before the King and Queen early in 1694. A report prepared by the royal attorney and solicitor-general confirming the validity of the Charter of the Colony of Connecticut was ratified by the crown on April 19, 1694. The Charter formed the basis of Connecticut's government until a new state constitution was written in 1818.
     Robert Treat was seventy-six in 1692, and ready for someone else to serve as governor. Fitz-John Winthrop was elected in 1693, and Robert Treat was elected to the position of Deputy Governor, where he served for the next ten years.
     Robert Treat died July 12, 1710 in Milford and is buried in the Milford Center Cemetery. His first wife, Jane, died October 31, 1703. He had married again on October 24, 1705, to Mrs. Elizabeth (Powell) Bryan, the daughter of Elder Michael and Abigail Powell of Boston. She was twice widowed before marrying Gov. Treat. She died January 10, 1706.
     The grandson of Governor Treat's oldest son, Samuel, was Robert Treat Paine, a signer of the Declaration of Independence.

TREAT, Robert, Governor of Connecticut
1683-1687, 1689-1698
     Born circa 1622 in Pitminster, Somerset, England, the second son of Richard and Alice (Gaylard) Treat (or Trott). A Congregationalist. Brother of Richard, James, Honor, Joanna, Sarah, Susanna and Catherine. Married circa 1647 to Jane Tapp, by whom he was the father of Samuel, John, Mary, Robert, Sarah, Hannah, Joseph and Abigail; after his first wife's death in 1703, remarried on October 24, 1705 to Elizabeth (Powell) Hollingsworth Bryan; no children by his second wife.
     Immigrated with his parents to America, probably late in the 1630's; later became one of the early settlers of the town of Milford in New Haven Colony. Was serving as a Deputy in the New Haven General Court by 1653, representing Milford; also named Lieutenant and Chief Military Officer of Milford in 1654. Selected as a Magistrate of New Haven Colony in 1659, a position which he held until he declined to serve in May 1664. Following the formal merger of New Haven with Connecticut in 1665, acted briefly as a member of the Connecticut General Assembly, but soon moved to Newark in East Jersey; served as a Deputy in the East Jersey Assembly from 1667 to 1672; also held office as Magistrate and Recorder of Newark. Returned to Connecticut early in the 1670's, and became an Assistant of that colony in 1673. From 1675 to 1676 played a major military role during King Philip's War, serving as Commander-in-Chief of the Connecticut forces deployed against the Indians. Elected Deputy Governor of Connecticut in May 1676, a position he retained until he succeeded the deceased Governor William Leete in April 1683.
     Except for the period between November 1687 and the spring of 1689, when Sir Edmund Andros governed the colony as part of the Dominion of New England, Treat served as chief executive of Connecticut from 1683 to 1698. A political moderate, Treat agreed to serve as a member of Andros' Council during the eighteen months of Dominion rule, but he also wished to avoid unnecessary encroachment by Crown officials. Consequently, after the demise of Andros, Treat advocated resumption of government under Connecticut's old charter, a charter which had never been legally invalidated. The impressive victory by Treat in the gubernatorial election of May 1689 was a major triumph over both the conservative Gershom Bulkeley, who claimed that the overthrow of Andros had been illegitimate, and the popular James Fitch, who attacked Treat's complicity with the Dominion government..
     Following his tenure as chief executive, the aged Treat continued to serve as deputy governor until 1708. He died on July 12, 1710.

From the "History of Newark, NJ" by Joseph Atkinson (1878):.
FOUNDER OF NEWARK
     Robert TREAT is described as "the flower and pride of the whole company." In establishing and laying out the town he was among the most active and energetic. More than any other settler he is justly entitled to be remembered as THE FOUNDER OF NEWARK. To none more than to Treat is the Newark of today indebted for the natural beauty of its location, the order of its original plan, and the width and attractiveness of its leading thoroughfares, more especially Broad street. In evidence of the esteem in which he was held by his fellow settlers of Newark, the town records tell that when the town was parceled into lots, he was given first choice by universal consent, and besides, two extra acres or lots in recognition of his services in negotiating for the settlement..
GOVERNOR OF CONNECTICUT
     He remained in Newark after its settlement only some six years, returning to Connecticut in 1672. In Connecticut he became more than ever a man of mark. Besides taking a commanding military position in early colonial Indian warfare, Treat served the Colony for thirty-two years as Deputy Governor and Governor. It is traditionally related that at the "Battle of Bloody Brook," between the Indians and the Colonists, Major Treat commanded the latter, and behaved heroically. It is said that in the action: "He that commanded our forces then and now us, (the Colonial Legislature), made no less than seventeen fair shots at the enemy, and was thereby as oft a mark for them." As Governor (of Connecticut) he was elected annually from 1683 until 1698. He died July 12, 1710, full of years and honors. He was in his 85th year. Trumball, Connecticut historian, justly says of this remarkable man: "Few men have sustained a fairer character or rendered the public more important services. He was an excellent military officer; a man of singular courage and resolution, tempered with caution and prudence. His administration of government was with wisdom, firmness and integrity. He was esteemed, courageous, wise and pious. He was exceedingly beloved and venerated by the people in general, and especially by his neighbors at Milford where he resided.".
SHE'D RATHER BE TREATED THAN TROTTED!
     He was twice married, his first wife being Jane Tapp, a daughter of one of the "seven pillars" of the Milford church. Like brave men generally, Treat appears to have been exceedingly timid and backward in the presence of the fair sex. That is to say, he was extremely backward in coming to the main point - a proposal of marriage. There is good authority for saying that once, while familiarly dancing his future wife on his knee, as was permissible by their disparity of age and long intimacy, the damsel brought her lover to a prompt decision by the suggestive expostulation: "Robert, be still that I had rather be Treatted than trotted.".
MISCELLANEOUS
     Gov. Treat left Newark a rich legacy in the persons of several estimable children. His son John, who married Sarah Tichenor, was a Justice of the Peace under Cornbury; represented Essex County in the Assembly when it was necessary that members should along with other requirements, own 1,000 acres of land or L500 in personal estate; was in 1712, Presiding
     Judge of the local court; and in 1731, held the military title of Major, like his distinguished father. The Governor's daughter Mary became the wife of Deacon Azariah Crane, who left his "silver bole" to be used by "the church in Newark forever," and who appears to have outlived all the original settlers. Governor Treat's "home-lott" was occupied by his daughter's descendants until the beginning of the present century (1800). On a portion of it now stands a noble monument not only to Robert Treat but to all the original settlers - the First Presbyterian Church of Newark. Though the name of Treat is extinct in Newark, and almost entirely so in the State of New Jersey, the Governor's descendants are numerous and representative of the best citizenship and the highest reputation. In New England and the West the Treats number not a few distinguished men in public as well as in private life..

Birth:      Jul. 20, 1634
Pitminster
Somerset, England
Death:      Feb. 12, 1709
Wethersfield
Hartford County
Connecticut, USA

Lieut. James Treat, Sr., youngest son & 9th child of the Wethersfield, Conn. immigrants Richard Treat, Esq. & Alice Gaylord, bapt. July 20, 1634 at St. Andrew and St. Mary Church, at Pitminster, Somersetshire, England. He d. testate Feb. 12, 1708/09 at Wethersfield, Conn., Æ 75. He has no known gravestone marking the place of his internment, but is assumed to be interred at Wethersfield Village Cemetery where his wife and many of his immediate descendants are buried.

James m. Rebecca Latimer, dau. of John and Ann Latimer, early settlers of Wethersfield. Rebecca was b. Oct. 6, 1646 at Wethersfield and d. there Aug. 23, 1734, Æ 88 (g.s.)

The Treat Gen. cites the date of marriage as Jan. 26, 1664-5, but there is no primary source that confirms it. Rather than the first child being b. 15 months later, the date of marriage would be more believable if it was actually June 26, 1665, indicating the first child was born 9 months and 5 days after marriage. As an historic perspective, after detailing more than 200 ancestors of very early New England, it was rare that the first child was born more than 11 months after the wedding night.

An extended bio will be added later. The known children were all b. at Wethersfield, but only some of them have recorded dates of birth in the Wethersfield records, with the respective extant gravestones of those without a recorded date of birth helpful in isolating the approximate year of their birth:

• i. James Treat, Jr., Esq., b. Apr. 1, 1666 at Wethersfield (VRs), d. there Feb 18, 1741/42, Æ 76 (g.s.); m. 1) Dec. 17, 1691 at Wethersfield, Prudence Chester, dau. of Capt. John Chester & Sarah Wells (q.v. Welles), b. Dec. 10, 1666 at Wethersfield. She d. May 25, 1727 at Wethersfield (g.s.) They had 7 children of record at Wethersfield. He m. 2) after May 1727, Hannah Wright, dau. of Ens. Samuel Wright and Mary Butler, the widow of Daniel Boardman. She was b. betw. 1662-1663 at Wethersfield, and d. there Feb 25, 1745/46, Æ 83 (g.s.) There were no children of this latter marriage. Hannah had 11 children by her 1st husband, who d. Feb. 20, 1724/25, Æ 67.

• ii. Jemima Treat, b. Mar. 15, 1667/68 (VRs), d. Oct. 5, 1755 at Newington, Conn., Æ 87 (g.s.); m. Dec. 17, 1691 at Wethersfield, Stephen Chester, the older brother of Jemima's brother James' wife Prudence, b. May 26, 1660 at Wethersfield. He d. Feb. 9, 1697/98 at Wethersfield, Conn. Three children of the family.

• iii. Samuel Treat, Sr., b. Feb 17, 1670/71 (VRs), d. Mar 5, 1732/33 at Wethersfield, Æ 63 (g.s.); m. Nov. 22, 1716, prob. at Windsor, Conn., Sarah Wolcott, who d. Apr. 10, 1743 at Wethersfield, Æ 53 (g.s.) Two children of the family, but only one, Samuel, Jr., reached maturity and left descendants.

• iv. Rev. Salmon Treat, b. circa 1672, d. Jan. 6, 1762 at Preston, Conn., Æ 90 (g.s.); m. 1) Dorothy Noyes, dau. of Rev. James Noyes & Dorothy Stanton, b. June 22, 1675 at Stonington, Conn.

Rebecca Latimer, eldest known child of the Wethersfield, Conn. immigrant settlers John & Ann Latimer, b. at Wethersfield Oct. 6, 1646 where she d. Aug. 23, 1734, Æ 88.

In circa 1665, Rebecca m. Lieut. James Treat, bapt. July 20, 1634 at Pitminster, Somersetshire, England. [It is otherwise claimed that the date of marriage was Jan. 26, 1664/5, but there is no primary record that confirms a specific date. Such date is suspicious on its face, as the first child of record was b. almost 15 months later in April 1666 when in that era it was very normal for the first child to be born under 11 months following the wedding night.]

Lieut. James Treat & Rebecca Latimer had ten children of record at Wethersfield, who are outlined in their father's memorial.
