James was the immigrant of this family. He was made freeman of
Massachusetts May 10, 1645. In early 1650 he had lands granted him in
Pequot, now New London, as recorded in New London records, which soon
became his residence "on the path to New street or Cape Ann street", as
it was called in honor of the Cape Ann Company, who chiefly settled
there. He removed to Groton where he built his house in 1657 residing
there until his death. He was one of the selectmen of New London for
several years, and one of the first "Deputys sent from New London
Plantation" to the General Court at Hartford, May session, 1657, and was
nine times afterwards chosen member of the assembly, the last in 1670,
and he was also an active member of Rev. Richard Blinman's church, as his
name is prominent in every important movement or proceeding.

[Morgans, Wm andSons.FBK.FBK.FTW]
In 1636, in March, James Morgan and two younger brothers, John and Miles,
sailed from Bristol on a ship named "Mary" and arrived in Boston in April following. James Morgan settled first in Plymouth, then moved to Roxbury before 1640; lands were granted to him at Pequot in 1650.
John Morgan was a high churchman and disliked the austerity of the Puritans. He moved to Virginia. Miles Morgan moved to Springfield, MA, and became the progenitor of the Morgan family represented by J. P. Morgan of Morgan and Company, International Bankers. The eldest brother, and our lineal ancestor, may have settled first at Plymouth. He is found at Roxbury near Boston, before 1640. That year, August 6, 1640, he married there Margery Hill of Roxbury. He was made a freeman there May 10, 1643. He is named as a resident therein the inventory of John Graves, 1646, and was a freeholder there as late as 1650, the same year that he removed to Pequot (now New London) and had a houselot assigned him there.

Early in 1650 he had land granted to him at Pequot which was occupied by him as a homestead "On the path of New Street" (now Ashcraft Street) and a further entry upon the records shows that " James Morgan hath given him about six acres of upland, where the wigwams were, in the path that goes from his house towards Culvers' among the rocky hills." These tracts were located near the present third burial ground, in the western suburbs of the city of New London: a location sterile and dreary and which in a few years was abandoned by its ocupants for homes and broader lands of fairer promise on the east side of the River Thames.

He continued to occupy this homestead on the path to New Street or "Cape Ann Lane" as it was called in honor of the Cape Ann Company who settled there until about March 1657.

On the 25th day of December 1656 he sold his homestead and removed soon after, with several others, across the river on large tracts of land previously granted them by the town, upon the east side, now the south part of Groton.

James Avery, William Meades and Nehemiah and John Smith, who also had
grants of land adjoining to him, were among the first settlers, and the
earliest resident farmers upon the east side, now Groton. Grants of land
had been made from time to time after 1652-53 by the colony of Pequot,
with a liberal hand, upon the east side of the river, comprising the
fertile regions of what is now the southern part of Groton, and these
lands were soon after occupied generally by the several proprietors.

It was upon the east side of the River Thames that James Morgan settled,
and in a rude log cabin with his family consisting of wife and three sons
and a daughter; and this territory, made the separate town of Groton May
1705, and again divided by setting off the town of Ledyard in 1836, has
been and still remains the prolific hive of our name and family.

He was a large proprietor and dealer in lands; distinguished in public
enterprises; often employed by the public in land surveys, establishing
highways, determining boundaries, adjusting civil difficulties, as a good
neighbor and a Christian man, in whom all appear to have reposed a marked
degree of confidence and trust.

He was one of the "townsmen" or selectmen of New London for several
years, and was one of the first "Deputies" sent from New London
Plantations to the General Court at Hartford, May session 1657 (at which
date he deposed his age to be about 50 years) and was nine times
afterwards chosen a member of that grave and important assembly, the
last time in1670. His associates and compeers composing the General
Court or Colonial Assembly in May 1657, when he was first chosen, were
Governor John Winthrop, John Mason, Jonathan Brewster, Thomas Welles, etc.

To this carefully selected body of men was intrusted the whole sovereign
power of the colony, and the administration of its government, in
original jurisprudence and the most trifling as well as most henious
offenses and causes of action, and the minutest details in every
department.

James Morgan seems to have impressed this grave body of men with a high
sense of his sterling honesty and integrity of character, and it appears
that in a controversy between the General Court and the New London
Plantation about boundaries and jurisdiction, it was ordered that the
matter that shoud be submitted to three arbiters, mutually agreed upon,
New London at once named their own townsman, James Morgan, really party
in their own interest, but nevertheless the General Court as promptly
accepted him, and without naming another, agreed to submit to his sole
decision, which when made, seems to have satisfied all parties.

He was an active and useful member of the church under Rev. Richard
Blinman's ministry, and his name is prominent in every important movement
or proceeding.

"James Morgan, Mr. Tinker and Obadiah Brown, are chosen to seat the
people in the meeting house, which they doing, the inhabitants are to
remain silent." This was considered a difficult task, as the seating
determined the social standing of all the people.

(Minutes from the record.) In 1661 he was one of a committee of the
General Court to lay out the bounds of New London "On the east side of
the Great River."

In 1662 he was one of a committee to contract " for building a house for
the ministry" at New London.

From about this time he signs his name "James Morgan, Senior, of New
London," his eldest son, afterwards Capt. James Morgan, being then near
twenty-one years of age.
This year, 1662, his list on the the town assessment stands the third
highest in amount; and among the tax-payers of that year, about one
hundred in number, only seven had a list exceeding 200#. James Morgan's
list was only 250#, but this was a large estate in those primitive days.

The spot where he first built his house in Groton in 1657, and where he
ever afterwards resided, and where he died, is a few rods southeast of
the present dwelling (1868) of Elijah S. Morgan, about three miles from
Groton Ferry, on the road to Poquonoc Bridge and this patriarchal
homestead from that day down to the present occupant has descended
through an unbroken line of James Morgans, for six generations. And it
is worthy of note, in connection with this fact, that for eight
generations as they hereinafter succeed each other, in regular order of
individual precedence, each one is headed by the name of James Morgan.

He died 1685, aged 78 years and his estate was divided soon after his
death among his four surviving children.
