American Satterlee family. The family, originally, came<br />

from the village of Satterlee, Suffolk. England, and it has<br />

been in America, since 1685. It is descended from Benedict<br />

Satterlee. the son of the Rev. William Satterlee, vicar<br />

of Saint Ida's Clinch, Ide. Devonshire. The latter was a<br />

Royalist and was sequestered from his parish during Cromwell's<br />

time and imprisoned in a stable for a long time. During<br />

the days of the Colonial wars, a younger Benedict Sat-<br />

terlee, was Lieutenant of a Connecticut Company, and afterwards<br />

he was killed during the Revolutionary war. in the<br />

massacre of Wyoming. He was Bishop Satterlee's great,<br />

great grandfather.
