⁷B. H. Davis, Reminiscences of Oxford Homes and People (Seymour Record - 1913), Chapter 3. . "   The next place north we come to is the Treat homestead. It was formerly owned and occupied by Atwater Treat who was born there and lived there all his life.  He followed farming exclusively and was very successful as the well cultivated fields showed. He married Elizabeth Tyrell of Cheshire.  Six children were born to them: Frances, Jane,   Bryan, Mary, Elijah, and Idella.
 Francis died at the age of 13 years.
 Jane died at the age of 19 years.
 Mary married Edwin Parmeley and lived in Wallingford.
  Bryan and his brother-in-law were for many years engaged in the wagon wheel business in Millville under the name of Treat and Parmeley. They afterward moved to Wallingford and carried on the business there.  He was married twice and has several children.
 Elijah married Sarah Curtis of Oxford and four children were born to them.
 Mary married H. O. Chatfield of Seymour.
 Florence married Horace B. Perry of New haven.
 Atwater married Jennie Andrus, whose father recently purchased the Davis farm, adjoining the Treat farm. He lives at home and takes charge of the farm.
