• Notes

  The youngest child of Joseph (Fowler), was the first of the Fowlers born in Torrington, and long lived to enjoy his birthright inheritance. He inherited a manly form, good intellectual abilities, and received for his day a fair education, and a thorough puritanical religious training. He was a great reader, and an original thinker; and sought to know the great principles of truth, and of religious and civil liberty. He married Rhoda Tuttle, daughter of Capt. Levi Tuttle, of Fair Haven, Connecticut. She was a woman of good mind, and such disposition as made her a valuable help mate and proper companion of the man she married. He inherited considerable landed property from his father, which he sold, and purchased a farm next to Deacon Cook's on the west, which is still known as the Fowler place, where he reared his large family, which was ever industrious and comfortably prosperous. His children all grew to manhood except one; and one other died at the age of twentyy-three, and they formed honorable alliances for life; living independently and usefully in the world. It was customary for this family to be together on Thanksgiving day, if no other day in the year. All of the member of the family were noted singers, and when the Thanksgiving dinner over the whold family would rise and stand, and sing... This family were ever the steadfast friends of Mr. Roberts, the first minister. They were educated to endorse the traditional, Calvinistic doctrines and faith, but after Rhoda Tuttle Fowler fell a victim to it, in a religio-Calvinistic mania, which continued many years, the views of some of the family were essentially modified... Mr. Fowler lived to the respectable age of seventy-four years; and his widow to the advanced age of ninety years. Source: History of Torrington, Connecticut by Rev. Samuel Orcutt, 1878
