4064. Stephen Upson 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 was born 7, 8, 9, 10 in 1655 in Hartford, Hartford, Connecticut. He died 11, 12, 13 in 1735 in Waterbury, New Haven, Connecticut. He married 14, 15, 16 Mary Lee on 28 Dec 1682 in Waterbury, New Haven, Connecticut. [Parents]
Stephen Upton joined the Company of Mattatuck or Waterbury, where on December 29, 1679, he signed the Articals of Association. He was surveyor, on school committee, grand juror, often townman, and three times Deputy to the general Court.
Stephen Upson and wife were buried in Grand Street Cemetery, Waterbury. Descendants who look for his grave will not find it. Anderson's History, pages 235 and 666 reads: "In certain towns settled at an early date it was the custom to bury the dead in the garden of the minister, and the first burial in Waterbury was likewise at the foot of the minister's garden, for Mr. Peck's house-lot extended through to Grand Street, and the part of the Grand Street Cemetery in use during the seventeenth century was but a continuance of the house lot. The earliest mention of a burial place is in 1695 when Edmund Scott was granted a parcel of land butting east on the burying yard. This was the only place of burial until 1709. By 1890 the Grand Street Cemetery was greatly neglected and there were only eight gravestones standing which bore a date prior to 1740. After much opposition, on the part of a few, in 1892, 'the city of Waterbury dishonored itself by desecrating the graves of one hundred and seventy six years, by blotting from the face of our fair township the last vestige of its founders.'" Many bodies were removed to Riverside Cemetery and various nearby cemeteries, and some gravestones were plowed under. This is now the site of the Bronson Library.Sergeant Stephen Upson is sometimes erroneously called a Proprietor of Waterbury. In 1702, it was declared that the only men who were qualified to act in giving away lands were the proprietors for the first purchasing of the place, together with Stephen Upson, Richard Porter and Jonathan Scott.
His will was dated November 28, 1733, and proved July 3, 1735. His estate amounted to five hundred twenty pounds, seventeen shillings.
The will of Stephen Upson follows:In the name of God, Amen. The twenty eight day of November in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and thirty three. I STEPHEN UPSON of Waterbury in the County of New Haven and Colony of Connecticut in New England, Husbandman, being far advanced in years but of perfect mind and memory, thanks be given unto God, and calling to mind the mortality of my Body and knowing that it is appointed to all men once to Dye do make and ordain this my last will and testament, that is to say principally and first of all, I give and recommend my Soul into the Hands of God who gave it, and my Body to the earth to be buried in Decent and Christian Manner at the Discretion of my Executors, nothing doubting but at the Generall Resurrection, I shall receive the same again by the Almighty Power of God.

These two pieces of Land as above described, be it more or less than six acres and three quarters of an Acre, I give unto him as an acknowledgement of his being the eldest son, to have and to hold the sd Land with the appurtenances thereunto belonging unto Him and His Heirs and Assigns forever. Also I give him four acres more of Land lying in the Horse Pasture, so called, butting west on Thomas Upson's Land to the north, east and south on Common Land. Also I give him two Stears which he has already received, to have and to hold the same to Him and His Heirs forever, to His and their own sole benefit forever and none of the above given Premises to be counted in the following distribution:
Item--I give unto my well beloved Daughter, Mary Welton, one piece of Land south of Buck's Meadow called Upson's Island which piece of Land is Estimated Twelve acres but be it More or Less as it is, butted and bounded, I give the whole to her and her heirs forever and with what she has already received to be the whole of her Portion.

I do hereby disallow and disannul any other or former testaments, Wills and Executors by me in any ways before named, ratifying and confirming this and no other to be my last will and testament, in witness hereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal the day and year above written.
