SAMUEL 2 LOVELAND (Thomas 1 ) d in Glas., Conn., Sept. 27, 1772, in the 95th year of his age. From Prof. Hoadley, State Librarian at Hartford, Conn., who has a copy of the First Cong. Ch. Rec. of that place: Samuel Loveman m Lydia Barnard, Oct. 4, 1705. Glas. Town Records: Samuel Loveland began to beat the drum the first Sabbath in the month, which is the 6th of April, 1701 (supposed for the purpose of calling the people to meeting). Colonial Records, 1706 1716: At a meeting of the Governor and Council in Hartford, May 22, 1712: Resolved, that an order be given the Treasurer to pay Samuel Loveman of Glas., a soldier in Col. Whitney s Reg. in the late expedition against Canada, 3, 18s. Deed Records: Joseph Dickinson to Samuel Loveland (March 23, 1731), four acres of land with mansion house thereon standing.

Samuel Loveland to Samuel Loveland, Jr. (Nov. 28, 1737), forty acres of land Samuel Loveland to John Loveland, for the love and affection I bear towards him, that he may be accommodated with land to work upon. Samuel Loveland to his daughter Beriah, wife of David Dickinson (Dec. 22, 1756). Samuel Loveland removed from this part of Glastonbury to that part which later became the northern part of the town of Marlborough. Marlborough was incorporated as a parish out of portions of Hebron, Glas. and CoIchester. The first house in this section was built by him in 1747. Fourteen subscribers hereto, inhabitants in Colchester, Hebron and Glastonbury petitioned (May 15, 1736) the General Assembly for a separate place of worship: We would humbly show to your Honors our Difficult Circumstances, our living so far from any place of the publick worship of God, some living seven, some eight miles and several of us have so weakly wives that are not able to go to any place of publick worship. They asked the privilege of hiring an orthodox minister to preach the word to and amongst us. Samuel Loveland was one of these petitioners, and Charles Loveland and Nathan Dunham signed a similar petition in 1737. On the first petition the Assembly granted the petitioners liberty to employ a minister, but did not release them from taxes for the support of the ministry in the ecclesiastical societies to which they respectively belonged.
