  • Notes 
    • BIRTH-DEATH-MARRIAGE-SPOUSE-PARENTS: The Trowbridge genealogy, history of the Trowbridge family in America; Francis Bacon Trowbridge; Tuttle, Morehouse & Taylor; New Haven; 1908.

      William Trowbridge passed his boyhood in his native town, New Haven, Conn. On January 2, 1681/82, he received a grant of 50 acres of land in the town of Suffield, Conn., and on March 9 following he was invited to teach the first school established there, at a salary of 10 pounds per annum for five years and a payment for every additional scholar.

      He married and made his home in his native town. He was a planter and shipmaster, sailing out of New Haven. He was captain of the sloop, Adventure, when it was taken by the French on July 20, 1697. Captain Trowbridge was accustomed to make voyages to the West Indies, Fayal and other foreign ports, and died on one of these voyages. He attended the First Church, of which his wife was admitted a member May 15, 1689.
