     On 10 September 1677 John Lothrop was requested to arrange for the building of a mill in Wallingford, New Haven Co., Connecticut. He must have begun building immediately, since three days later it was voted that "if Jo. Lothrop go on with all speed and complete his mill which he hath begun - leaving all agreement to a convenient time - the town grants him his 30 acres." This grant covered the site of the mill. He also received grants of 44 acres "peculiar" to it, plus 40 acres of upland, and his taxes were remitted. Full control of the mill was given him in 1681.¹

     Nathaniel Royce married, as his second wife, Sarah Lothrop, daughter of Samuel Lothrop and Elizabeth Scudder, on 21 April 1681.¹ His death date, as given by Huntington, is confusing.
