Single sheet. 8 1/4 x 6.5", creased at folds, age toned, very good condition. Enoch Parsons (1769 1846) was born 5 November 1769 in Lyme, Connecticut. He was the son of Mehitable Mather Parsons and Major General Samuel Hold-en Parsons. In 1789, at only nineteen years of age, Parsons was appointed Governor of the Northwestern Ter…ritory and Regist-rar and Clerk of the first Probate Court in Ohio. He later resig-ned and returned to Connecticut. At age 21, Parsons was app-ointed High Sheriff of Middlesex County; he remained in that position for about 28 years. Enoch Parsons married Mary Wyley Sullivan (d. 1807) on 19 May 1795 in Philadelphia; they had three children. He married his fourth cousin, Mrs. Sarah Hubbard Rosencrans, on 17 September 1808; they had one child. Enoch Parsons was the President of the Middle-town and Hartford Branch of the Bank of the United States between 1818-1824; he held the post again later, until the Charter expired. He was also a frequent member of the Leg-islature. Enoch Parsons died 9 July 1846. [Connecticut Historical Society].
