Son of Samuel Griswold and Susannah Huntington.
.
Husband of:
.
1) Elizabeth Loomis, whom he married on Nov. 30, 1714, in Norwich, New London, CT, and who died in 1718. No known children.
.
2) Abigail Bingham, whom he married on Dec. 13, 1721, Stratford, Fairfield, CT, and with whom he had 9 children: Francis #1, Mary, Daniel, Abgiail, Abel, Elizabeth, Isaac Sr., Francis #2, and Adonijah Griswold.
.
3) Patience Seabury, widow of both Joseph Latham and Benjamin Starr, whom he married on Dec. 23, 1755, in Norwich, New London, CT.
.
Note: There is a discrepancy between the date of Francis' will: Nov 5, 1760 and the date of his death Apr 10, 1760 (death records and gravestone). I suspect that we're probably dealing with a 1760-1761 issue. The will was written in Nov 1760 and Francis probably died in Apr 1761 (i.e., 1760-1761).
