"Fresh fallen snow on the newly dug grave of the girl with the sunlight in her smile,
Gathered around, all the many who loved her, whose lives she brightened for a while,
All the laughter and love in her seven short years were much more than some folks ever see,
Fare thee well, Margaret, you rest here in peace, while we cherish your sweet memory.

"A labor of love for the man from the old world who works all alone in the night,
Lost in his thoughts as the chips fall away and the child seems to come back to life.
Faithfully rendered by rough skillful hands, lovely features emerge from the stone.
His tears gently fall on the face that he forms, for the old man has memories of his own.

"Silent she stands in her old fashioned dress, just a small figure frozen in time,
Patient and calm as the world struggles on, for she's left all her cares far behind.
And many who wander by her grave on the hill stop and leave her a penny or two,
And each copper coin bears a wish and a prayer for the happiness that she once knew.

"Time flies away like the brown leaves of autumn, like cold ashes thrown to the wind.
Sweet moments of joy are the glittering jewels that we hold 'til our memories grow dim." Parents: Carroll Perley PITKIN and Mary A. Devine.

bullet Martha PITKIN was born in 1612 in Berkhamsted, England. She died in 1612 in Berkhamsted, England. She was christened on 17 Oct 1612. She was buried in Dec 1612. Parents: William PITKIN and Jane.

bullet Martha PITKIN was born in 1618 in Berkhamsted, England. She was christened on 14 Mar 1618. Parents: William PITKIN and Jane.

bullet Martha PITKIN was born in 1639 in Berkhamsted, England. She was baptized on 12 Dec 1639 in St. Peters Church. She died on 13 Oct 1719 in Connecticut. When Martha came to America in 1661 to persuade her brother William to return to England, her brother Roger was an officer in the Royal Army. When she found her scholarly brother William laboring like a servant on his plantation, she is said to have exclaimed: "I left one brother serving his king, I find my other brother serving swine." At the time, she was 22 years old, beautiful, accomplished and witty. Dr. Thomas Robbins recorded in his diary: "This girl put the Colony in commotion. If possible she must be detained: The stock was too valuable to be parted with. Became a matter of general consultation, what young man was good enough to be presented to Miss Pitkin. Simon Wolcott, of Windsor, was fixed upon and, beyond expectation, succeeded in obtaining her hand." The Wolcotts were a prominent family, having political and business connections in England and Connecticut. Martha's life in the New World was one of hardships. In 1671 Simon sold his place in Windsor and removed to Simsbury, where he had received a grant of land. This change proved most unfortunate, as the settlers were driven from the place by the Indians and their property destroyed. Even Martha's pewter dishes, which her husband concealed in a swamp, could never be found. They returned to Windsor for a few years, but rents were high and difficult to obtain, and Simon may have found his growing debts more intolerable than the possible depredations of Indians on the east side of the river where he owned land. In any case, he ventured to move the family and possessions there in 1680. Their youngest son Roger wrote in his journal: "In the year 1680 my father settled on his own Land on the east side of the river, everything was to begin, few families were settled there. We had neither Minister nor school, by which it hath come to pass that I never was a Scholar in any school a day in my life: My parents took great care and pains to learn their children and were successful with the rest but not with me by reason of my extreme dullness to learn [He must have learned something. Roger was made governor of Connecticut in 1750]. On Sept. 11, 1687, dyed my honored father in the 62d year of his age: it was just before the coming of Sir Edmund Andross. It was generally expected that persecution for religion would soon ensue: it filled him with agonizing fears and excited his fervent prayers for deliverance, but God took him away from the evil he feared to come." Though Martha was left with six of her children to provide for, the land uncleared, and the estate in debt, Roger was able to add "but we never wanted," a statement that speaks volumes about Martha's character. She later married Daniel Clark. Roger wrote of his mother: "1719, dyed my honoured mother Mrs Martha Clark in the 80th year of her age. She was a gentlewoman of bright natural parts, which were well improved by her education in the City of London. She came to New England in 1661, the same year she was marryed to my father. The rest of her useful life she spent in the wilderness doing good and setting an example of piety, prudence, charity, and patience." Roger's son Oliver was a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and later Governor of Connecticut. Roger's daughter, Ursula married Matthew Griswold of Lyme, who became governor of Connecticut, and among their descendants are twelve governors, thirty six judges, and many other eminent professionals. The Wolcott family was equaled only by the Pitkin family for its contributions to the political, economic and religious development of Connecticut. Because of the contributions of so many of her descendants to the cause of American independence, and because of the ability, patriotism, and prominence of her family in the early history of Connecticut, the East Hartford and South Windsor Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution bears the name of Martha Pitkin Wolcott. Parents: William PITKIN and Elizabeth.

bullet Martin PITKIN was born on 10 Nov 1763 in East Hartford, Connecticut. He died on 24 May 1833 in Marshfield, Vermont. Martin Pitkin was Ensign in 1796, Lieutenant in 1797 and Captain in 1798, in the East Hartford Militia. In 1792 and 1793, he spent the summers with his brother Caleb and Gideon Spencer clearing land in Marshfield, Vermont. He moved to Marshfield permanently about l799, perhaps residing for a time on the Star Pudding Farm (owned by Martin Johnson in 1997), and later on the site of the brick house on the village common later occupied by Stephen Pitkin, Jr.. He was a laborer, and his account book is in the possession of Caleb Pitkin (1997). He made at least two visits home to East Hartford in the Februarys of 1802 and 1804, at which time he settled some of his accounts there. Much of the work he did was building sleds, wagons, and carts. He also repaired wooden wheels, plows, hooped barrels and tubs, and worked as a joiner and carpenter. After moving to Marshfield, much of his time was spent framing barns and houses, as well as working at the various mills built by his brother Stephen. He also did custom plowing, skidding logs, and "carting" with his team for his neighbors. When his brother Caleb moved to Peacham from Marshfield, Martin used his team to move the household goods. Martin also seems to have been much in demand for slaughtering livestock. In November 1815, in a deal with his brother Stephen, Martin exchanged his house for another house on 40 acres, and a third interest in a mill (presumably the sawmill in what is now Marshfield Village). For much of October and November of that year, he seems to have operated the mill as its proprietor, sawing over 4500 feet of lumber and numerous wagon and sled parts for over 20 different individuals. Marshfield land records need to be checked to find the location of the properties. Parents: Joshua PITKIN and Anna STANLEY .
