Mark St. John, of Home-Lot III, as well as, at one time, of Home-Lots Nos. 5 and
16, was the son of the proprietor of Lot No. 22, Matthias St. John, Sr., and settler.

The son, in this instance, receives mention in advance of his father, in order that
numerical irregularity ma)' be avoided. The "plan" of this work is to introduce the
fathers before proceeding to consider their transactions, while the "anticipated" insertions
alluded to at the bottom of page 82, will not only print-preserve collected data concerning
themselves and their children, but serve, it is hoped, to gratifyingl)- link the present with
the past.

Mark St. John was an active man in the plantation. He bought (see page 40)
Joseph Fitch completely out, and on March 9, 1660, sold the same original Fitch property
(south of 1896 P^ast Norwalk School) to Edward Nash. Mr. St. John became the owner
of the Isaac More estate (Lot No. 16) also.

He married, first, Elizabeth, daughter of Timothy Stanle)- of Hartford, and had :
Elizabeth, (Mrs. Samuel Galpin ;")
