James Treat, Sr., youngest son & 9th child of the Wethersfield, Conn. immigrants Richard Treat, Esq. & Alice Gaylord, bapt. July 20, 1634 at St. Andrew and St. Mary Church, at Pitminster, Somersetshire, England. He d. testate Feb. 12, 1708/09 at Wethersfield, Conn., Æ 75. He has no known gravestone marking the place of his internment, but is assumed to be interred at Wethersfield Village Cemetery where his wife and many of his immediate descendants are buried. James m. Rebecca Latimer, dau. of John and Ann Latimer, early settlers of Wethersfield. Rebecca was b. Oct. 6, 1646 at Wethersfield and d. there Aug. 23, 1734, Æ 88 (g.s.). The Treat Gen. cites the date of their marriage as Jan. 26, 1664-5, but there is no primary source that confirms it. Rather than the first child being b. 15 months later, the date of marriage would be more believable if it was actually June 26, 1665, indicating the first child was born 9 months and 5 days after marriage. As an historic perspective, after detailing more than 200 ancestors of very early New England, it was rare that the first child was born more than 10-11 months after the wedding night. The known children were all b. at Wethersfield, but only some of them have recorded dates of birth in the Wethersfield records. The extant gravestones of the children without a recorded date of birth have been used as the basis of the date AFTER which they were born:[1] • i. James Treat, Jr., Esq., b. Apr. 1, 1666 at Wethersfield (VRs), d. there Feb 18, 1741/42, Æ 76 (g.s.); m. 1) Dec. 17, 1691 at Wethersfield, Prudence Chester, dau. of Capt. John Chester & Sarah Wells (q.v. Welles), b.

Samuel Wright and Mary Butler, the widow of Daniel Boardman. She was b. betw. 1662-1663 at Wethersfield, and d. there Feb 25, 1745/46, Æ 83 (g.s.). There were no children of this latter marriage.

Richard Treat, b. circa 1675, d. testate May 7, 1713 at Wethersfield, age not stated; m. Nov. 23, 1704 at Wethersfield, Catherine Bulkeley (q.v. Bulkley), dau. of Rev. Dr. and Hon. Gershom Bulkeley and Sarah Chauncey, b. circa 1681. She d. betw. Aug 25, 1706 and May 1712 before both her father and husband. One child, dau. Katherine (q.v.). Neither Richard nor his wife have known gravestones. • vi. Jerusha Treat, b. AFTER Jan. 15, 1677/8, d.

[1] Throughout New England, if not the whole of North America prior to the early 1800's, the gravestone symbol "Æ" or phrase "in the XX year of his/her age" stood for the Latin phrase "Ætatis suæ," which measures age from the date of birth versus the modern concept of a person's chronological age. That is, on the day a person is born they are in the first year of their age, and 366 days latter when a person celebrates their 1st birthday they are then in the 2nd year of their age. The stated age on early gravestones was one year greater than the person's chronological age. Edited 2/4/2016
