    RUSSELL, Samuel, of Bradford gave to his son "Timothy Russell one moiety or half of all those lands and tenements in Derby, which I purchased of Janathan Belcher, Esq., of Boston with a mansion house and barn thereon." Dec. 25, 1722, Capt Andrew Belcher and Mr. Jonathan Belcher, merchants of Boston, took a mortgage on landed property in Derby from Edward and James Pierson, merchants, the instrument being executed by Samuel Walker of Stratford, Jan. 15, 1713-14. The land consistedof about 300 acres, 200 being at Wesquantuck; the mansion house was on Great Neck and for the whole Samuel Russell paid £300 'current bills of credit.' Timothy Russell, therefore, had a fine start in life, and he improved it well. He m. into one of the best families; was town clerk some years, justice of the peace also; attained to military position, and closed life with honor.
