* Stephen Buckingham, Jr., was not (as might be supposed) the
son of Rev. Stephen Buckingham, but of Daniel Buckingham
(probably of Saybrook). He probably took the title of Junior to
distinguish himself from Rev. Stephen. There is on the Saybrook
Records, a deed of Nov. 3, 1726, from " Stephen Buckingham, Junior,
of Norwalk, husbandman, conveying to Thomas Lynde, of
Saybrook," some land, " being land conveyed by Samuel Marvin
to my uncle Mr, Thomas Buckingham, and to my honored father,
Mr. Daniel Buckingham." This Stephen Buckingham, Junior,
was a grandson of Rev. Thomas Buckingham, of Saybrook, and
was born Aug. 4, 1703. [From Nathanid Goodwin, of Hartford).
The old inhabitants of Norwalk say they have always heard
that Rev, Stephen Buckingham had no children.
