| Notes |
- CHR: Towcester par reg, as cited in Kenneth Lord, GENEALOGY OF THE DESCENDANTS OF THOMAS LORD (New York, 1946), 2 (FHL #929.273 L884Lka).
MAR: No mar rec found. Richard's estate recs, below, mentions a wife Sarah. The will of widow Sarah Lord of Hartford, 2 Aug 1676, proved 7 Sep 1676, makes "brother" George Graves one of the supervisors. See abstract from Hartford District Probate in Charles W. Manwaring, ed, DIGEST OF THE EARLY CONNECTICUT PROBATE RECORDS, 3 vols. (Hartford, 1904-1906), 1:216-17 (FHL #974.6 P2m). However, Kenneth Lord states that George Graves' sister Sarah was wife of a Deming (Lord, GENEALOGY, 9). Further research is necessary. George Graves was a deacon in the Hartford church and could have been referred to as brother in a religious sense.
DEATH: Elwood M. Avery, ed, "Marriage, Birth and Death Records from the Town Records of New London" (typescript, n.d.), 74 [FHL #974.65/N2 V2a]). Aged 51 yrs. Also see the adm/divison of estate of Capt. Richard Lord "of Hartford," 5 Sep 1662, Hartford District Probate, abstracted in Manwaring, DIGEST, 1:136. This document states that Richard died on 10 May 1662. It is likely that he died in New London while conducting business, as he is called "of Hartford" in estate recs and in the will of his brother Thomas Lord, dated 28 Oct 1661. Richard was a ship owner and merchant involved in the West Indies trade.
BUR: "Headstone Inscriptions Town of New London," Charles R. Hale Collection (typescript, 1937; Conn. State Library, Hartford), Antientest Cemetery, #312-2, p. 355 (FHL #003355). Aged 51 yrs.
