Misc. Notes
Notes for JOHN CASE:
John Case, the founder of the American branch of the Case family, was a native of England. He came from
Aylesham, England where many of the family resided. They were a noted family as far back as the time of
Oliver Cromwell. They accumulated their fortunes by furnishing leather for his army, being tanners and
farmers. John moved to Simsbury, Conneticut in 1669. He was appointed the first constable and represented
the town in the General Court in 1670 and for several years after. John's will was dated 1700 and is a lengthy
document of eight pages. He then owned 17 parcels of land, a corn mill and a saw mill. His inventory showed he
was a man of wealth for his day.

Misc. Notes
John was born 1615-16 in Gravesend, England. John married Sarah Spencer
in 1657 at Windsor, CT.

William, Thomas and John were all in Mathpeth Kills, LI, NY in 1639 and
apparently all three came on the "Dorset" that year. Thomas and John
were still in Mathpeth Kills in 1656, as Thomas served as a witness for
John's letter of power of attorney. John lived out his life in Simsbury,
CT. I have not found further info regarding William. Good Luck.
