"  Mr. Zachariah Hawkins lived in the house which has since been called the Judge Meigs place; was a son of Robert Hawkins of Derby, who came from England in the reign of King George 3rd.
 Zachariah Hawkins owned land quite extensively in Quakers Farm, even to the Housatonic river and owned an island in the river. He had four wives and 14 children with the three first wives.  He died in 1806.  His son Silas owned and lived in the old-fashioned red homestead called the old Hawkins homestead, and raised six children. His son Silas, Jr. lived there but never married. His brother Charles lived in the same street and his grandchildren now occupy the old place whose names are Roberts, they being the fifth generation in the old homestead." http://www.our-oxford.info/short-stories/lounsbury-sketch.html.

"  It has been said that Esquire David Tomlinson was the first mover in having the church built; he lived nearby and only raised a moderate family of 14 children, had a farm and store, and quite a number of helpers of men and women, both black and white, and as he had to come to Oxford to church, when the old church stood up by the cemetery, he had to provide quite a number of vehicles to bring them.  He would drive up to Southford (Slap Jack as it was called then) and down the main street through Oxford center, and attend two services and return by the old Church road, or by the old Doctor Dutton Road.  The road from the Bennet Perry place to Governors Hill was not built until 1830 and as the "Colored Folk" had to go too, there was one load of them, which concluded the rear of the procession.  Esquire Tomlinson was once state senator. He died in 1822, aged 61 years." http://www.our-oxford.info/short-stories/lounsbury-sketch.html.
