Notes for THOMAS GROSVENOR, LIEUT. COL.:
WHEN CONNECTICUT RAISED AND OFFICERED THE 1st. 7 REGIMENTS FOR THE RELIEF OF MASSACHUSETTS IN THE REVOLUTION, THOMAS WAS COMMISSIONED 2nd LIEUTENANT OF THE 3rd REGIMENT UNDER COLONEL ISRAEL PUTNAM AND LIEUTENANT-COLONEL EXPERIENCE STORRS, OF MANSFIELD, CONN. THE MINUTEMEN FOLLOWED PUTNAM TO CAMBRIDGE AND THE OLD RED HOUSE WHERE THE COMPANY ASSEMBLED ON THE MORNING OF THEIR DEPARTURE, 4/23/1775, IS STILL STANDING. ON THE EVENING OF 6/16/1775, LIEUTENANT GROSVENOR WAS DETAILED WITH 31 MEN DRAFTED FROM HIS COMPANY TO MARCH TO CHARLESTON UNDER CAPTAIN THOMAS KNOWLTON, OF ASHFORD, CONN., AND WITH ABOUT 100 OTHERS OF THE SAME REGIMENT WERE STATIONED BEFORE NOON NEXT DAY AT THE RAIL FENCE ON THE LEFT OF THE BREASTWORKS ON BREED'S HILL (COMMONLY KNOWN AS BUNKER HILL) AND EXTENDING THENCE TO MYSTIC RIVER. THE WHOLE FORCE WAS UNDER THE COMMAND OF KNOWLTON. WHEN THE BRITISH ATTACK WAS MADE, A COLUMN UNDER GENERAL PIGOTT WAS DIRECTED AGAINST THE REDOUBT AND ANOTHER UNDER GENERAL HOWE ADVANCED AGAINST THE RAIL FENCE. CAPTAIN DANA RELATES THAT HE, SERGEANT FULLER AND LIEUTENANT GROSVENOR WERE THE 1st. TO FIRE. WHEN AT THE 3RD. ATTACK, THE BRITISH BURST THROUGH THE AMERICAN LINE AT THE LEFT OF THE REDOUBT, CAPTAIN KNOWLTON, CHESTER AND CLARK, CLUNG PERSISTENTLY TO THE POSITION NEAR THE MYSTIC, THOUGH SEPARATED FROM THE MAIN BODY OF PROVINCIALS, AND EVENTUALLY PROTECTED THE RETREAT OF THE MEN WHO WERE IN THE REDOUBT, FIGHTING, ACCORDING TO THE REPORT OF THE MASS. COMMITTEE OF SAFETY, WITH THE UTMOST BRAVERY, AND KEEPING THE BRITISH FROM ADVANCING FURTHER THAN THE BREACH UNTIL THE MAIN BODY HAD LEFT THE HILL. COLONEL GROSVENOR RELATED IN A LETTER TO DANIEL PUTNAM, 4/30/1818, RESPECTING GENERAL DEARBORN'S CHARGES AGAINST THE BEHAVIOR OF GENERAL PUTNAM AT BUNKER HILL, THAT HIS COMMAND OF 30 MEN AND 1 SUBALTERN LOST 11 KILLED OR WOUNDED. "AMONG THE LATTER WAS MYSELF, THOUGH NOT SO SEVERELY AS TO PREVENT MY RETIRING". AT WINTER HILL, WHERE ENTRENCHMENTS HAD BEEN THROWN UP, BY THE CONN. TROOPS, THE PROVINCIALS MADE THEIR LAST STAND. COLONEL GROSVENOR CARRIED A MUSKET AND USED TO RELATE THAT HE FIRED HIS 9 CARTRIDGES WITH THE SAME PRECISION OF AIM AS IF FOX-HUNTING AND SAW A MAN FALL AFTER EACH SHOT. HIS WOUND WAS CAUSED BY A MUSKET BALL THROUGH THE HAND. BEFORE STRIKING HIS HAND IT HAD PASSED THROUGH THE RAIL AND IT PASSED THROUGH THE BUTT OF HIS MUSKET AFTER PIERCING HIS HAND AND FINALLY BRUISED HIS BREAST. HE BOUND UP HIS HAND WITH A WHITE CRAVAT AND REMAINED ON DUTY UNTIL AFTER THE BATTLE. THIS INCIDENT IS IMMORTALIZED IN TRUMBULL'S PAINTING OF THE BATTLE OF BUNKER HILL. THE COMMANDING FIGURE IN THE FOREGROUND WAS INTENDED TO REPRESENT LIEUTENANT GROSVENOR ACCOMPANIED BY HIS COLORED SERVANT.                                    ON THE ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICAN ARMY IN NEW YORK, 5/1776, GENERAL WASHINGTON ORGANIZED A BATTALION OF LIGHT TROOPS FROM THE VOLUNTEER REGIMENTS OF NEW ENGLAND AND THOMAS GROSVENOR COMMANDED 1 OF THE COMPANIES UNDER COLONEL THOMAS KNOWLTON. THE KNOLTON RANGERS, AS THEY WERE CALLED, TOOK PART IN THE BATTLE OF LONG ISLAND, IN THE FIGHT AT HARLEM, IN THAT NEAR McGOWAN'S PASS WHERE KNOWLTON WAS KILLED. THE SILK SASH OF COLONEL KNOWLTON, WHICH HAD BEEN PRESENTED TO HIM BY THE TOWN OF BOSTON, IS PRESERVED IN THE FAMILY OF THE YOUNGEST DAUGHTER OF COLONEL GROSVENOR, HANNAH. CAPTAIN BROWN, WHO SUCCEEDED KNOWLTON, FELL IN THE DEFENCE OF FORT MIFFLIN IN 11/1777. COLONEL GROSVENOR WAS IN THE BATTLE OF WHITE PLAINS, 10/28/1776, AND WAS CAPTAIN IN DURKEE'S REGIMENT IN THE BATTLES O TRENTON, TRENTON BRIDGE AND PRINCETON, AND WINTERED AT VALLEY FORGE. HE WAS CAPTAIN IN COLONEL WYLLI'S REGIMENT AND WAS WITH HIM AT THE CAPTURE OF TICONDEROGA, 5/10/1776. HE WAS COMMISSIONED 2/6/1777, MAJOR IN THAT REGIMENT. DURING THE WINTER AT VALLEY FORGE HE BELONGED TO HUNTINGTON'S BRIGADE, WHICH TOOK PART IN THE BATTLES OF GERMANTOWN. BRANDYWINE AND IN THE MOVEMENTS AT WHITE MARSH AND CHESTNUT HILL, FROM 11/23 -- 12/22/1777, AND DOWN TO THE ENCAMPMENT AT VALLEY FORGE. HE WAS COMMISSIONED LIEUTENANT-COLONEL, 3/13/1778, IN COLONEL DURKEE'S REGIMENT, AND MARCHED TO MONMOUTH WHERE 6/28/1778, A BATTLE WAS FOUGHT THAT DECIDED THE FATE OF WASHINGTON. HIS REGIMENT WAS IN THE ADVANCE UNDER LAFAYETTE AND WAS RANGED UPON THE HEIGHTS BEHIND THE CAUSEWAY AFTER LEE'S RETREAT. COLONEL GROSVENOR WAS ALSO IN GENERAL SULLIVAN'S EXPEDITION AGAINST THE SENECA INDIANS IN THE SUMMER AND AUTUMN OF 1779. ON 5/22/1779, HE WAS APPOINTED, AND 7/11 FOLLOWING WAS COMMISSIONED AS SUB-INSPECTOR OF THE ARMY UNDER BARON STEUBEN. HE WAS COMMISSIONED AN INSPECTOR, 1/1/1781. ON THE DEATH OF COLONEL DURKEE, 5/29/1782, HE WAS APPOINTED LIEUTENANT-COLONEL OF THE 1st CONNECTICUT REGIMENT AND CONTINUED IN THAT COMMAND UNTIL 1/1/1783, WHEN THE CONNECTICUT REGIMENTS WERE CONSOLIDATED UNDER ACT OF CONGRESS OF 8/7/1782. HE WAS ALSO ASSISTANT ADJUTANT-GENERAL OF THE CONNECTICUT LINE AS HIS ORDERLY BOOKS SHOW. AFTER 1/1/1783, COLONEL GROSVENOR RETURNED TO POMFRET AND RESUMED THE PRACTICE OF THE LAW.                                                                  FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS AFTER HIS MARRIAGE COLONEL GROSVENOR WAS A MEMBER OF THE GOVERNOR'S COUNCIL IN CONNECTICUT AND FOR A STILL LONGER PERIOD CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS FOR WINDHAM COUNTY AND JUDGE OF PROBATE FOR THE DISTRICT. THE DIPLOMA SIGNED BY WASHINGTON CONSTITUTING HIM A MEMBER OF THE ORDER OF CINCINNATI, NOW IN THE POSSESSION OF BERTRAM GROSVENOR GOODHUE, HUNG UNTIL 1891 IN THE HALL OF THE MANSION HOUSE WHICH HE BUILT AT POMFRET AND IN WHICH HE DIED. THE RAISING OF THE FRAME OF THE HOUSE WAS AN OCCASION OF FESTIVITY AND MANY WERE THE RECIPIENTS OF HIS BOUNTY AT THAT TIME. IT IS SAID THAT A YOUNG MOHICAN INDIAN DANCED UPON THE RIDGE POLE AS PART OF THE CELEBRATION. THE HOUSE WAS ALWAYS OPEN TO THE CHANCE VISITOR AND FOR MANY YEARS WAS A REFUGE FOR THE REMNANTS OF INDIAN TRIBES THAT STILL LINGERED IN CONNECTICUT, AS WELL AS OTHER UNFORTUNATES. AMONG THEM WERE THE VENERABLE INDIANS, ISAAC AND JOSHUA SENSEMAN AND HIS WIFE, AND BROTHER ISAAC. SOON AFTER THE DEATH OF HIS SECOND SON, COLONEL GROSVENOR JOINED THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH AT POMFRET. NO MAN WAS MORE VENERATED AND RESPECTED BY HIS TOWNSMEN. HE REFUSED A PENSION. HE DIED 7/11/1825. HIS WIFE DIED 6/11/1820, AND BOTH ARE BURIED IN THE LITTLE BURYING GROUND IN POMFRET WHERE MONUMENTS HAVE BEEN ERECTED TO THEIR MEMORY.
                                                The New York Historical Society Collections, 1914.                   Lt. Col. 3rd.Connecticut Regt. July 4th 1780 and Aug. 11, 1780.                                                            "Folklore and Firesides of Pomfret, Hampton and Vicinity" by Susan Jewett Griggs (1950) pp 37, 38.                                           Thomas Grosvenor served as lieutenant under Captain Brown during the Revolutionary War. At the battle of Bunker Hill, although wounded in the right hand (which he bound with a white cravat) he continued to lead his company into battle, holding his sword in his left hand, despite the efforts of his Negro servant to draw him from the field. This scene, painted by the artist John Trumbull, hangs on a wall at Yale University.                                    Colonel Grosvenor saw seven years of toil and privation, attached to Washington's main army. He was with General Washington in the famed crossing of the Delaware. In 1780 he broke ground at West Point and began the fort that is now the site of West Point Academy.                        At the end of the war, He resumed his law practice, and served on the Governor's Council. He was in high repute throughout the state-ever the friend of soldiers, Indians, and all who needed counsel.                              When Washington made his trip to Boston in 1789, he passed through Pomfret, and dined with Col. Grosvenor. It is usually said that Washington was entertained at the Thomas Grosvenor Mansion (now the Rectory School), but when we consider that Washington made his visit to Pomfret two years before the house was completed, the tradition is confirmed that the Commander-in-Chief actually stopped at the Harrison House which would appear to have been the home of Thomas Grosvenor before the erection of his mansion in 1792.                                                                                                                                                            Entered the army as Lieut; was wounded at Bunker Hill; captain Continental infantry, 1776; major, 1777; lieutenant colonel, 1778, and retired, 1783, as Lieut colonel commandant. Served through the war and was a member of the Society of the Cincinnati. (DAR Lineage Book)                                                                        In 1765 Thomas graduated from Yale. He listed in the !790 Conn, census. He practiced law at Pomfret. The painter John Trumbull painted him in the battle of Bunker Hill, the painting titled "The Death of General Warren at the Battle of Bunker's Hill" the painting is hung in the Yale University of Fine Arts.                                                       History of Hocking Valley (1883) p347.

  Notes for THOMAS PEABODY GROSVENOR, ESQ.:
Thomas was a New York state legislator, U.S. Representative from New York 1813-1817.                                          James Kent's Necrologies:                                    Thomas P. Grosvenor Esq. late member of Congress from Hudson, and formerly district Atty. for Columbia, Greene, etc. Died near Baltimore in Maryland the 24th April 1817-aged 35. He had endured a distressing Illness of nearly 3 months and was an eloquent, beloved and highly distinguished federal Member of Congress. He had represented Columbia County for four Sessions. He was brother-in-law to Elisha Williams, Esq. who married his sister. Mr. G. first drew my attention in 1810 to the merits of Scott's Marmion when he extolled the Battle in Flodden Field as "Superior to any thing in Homer." Mr. Grosvenor was a member of Assembly from the County of Columbia in the winter of 1811 and he was the author and powerful and efficient advocate of the Insolvent Act of April 3rd 1811, and its supplementary provision of 9th April 1811. I remember he cited the high authority of Sir Samuel Romilly in favor of its principles. This unjust and most reprehensible Act was retrospective and of profligate tendency, but what astonished me and destroyed my confidence in Mr. Grosvenor was, that he was one of the first persons who in 1811 availed themselves of its provisions and got rid of that debt. He, a young lawyer, at the age of 32, and author of the act goes immediately after it was passed and gets discharged under it!                                                             Thomas died at Waterloo, Maryland, at the home of Judge Hanson.                                                            Thomas pursued classical studies; was graduated from Yale College in 1800; studied law; was admitted to the bar in 1803 and commenced practice in Hudson, New York; member of the State assembly 1810-1812; district attorney of Essex County in 1810 and 1811; elected as a Federalist to the Twelfth Congress to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Robert Le Roy Livingston; reelected to the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Congress and served from January 29, 1813, to March 3, 1817; engaged in the practice of law in Baltimore, Md.; died Waterloo, near Baltimore, Md., April 24, 1817; interment in Hudson, New York.

  Notes for SETH GROSVENOR:
In 1806 Seth was living in New Hartford, New York, in 1813 was living in Buffalo, and in 1815 removed to New York City. At his death Seth bequeathed $40,000 to the City of Buffalo for a Library, which became know as the Grosvenor Library (later in 1935 became part of the Erie County Library). The Library owns a portrait of Seth painted by Thomas LeClear. Later portraits are owned by the Buffalo Historical Society and by the Misses Grosvenor. He left a large fortune, and died unmarried. On July 10, 1813 Seth was appointed administrator of his brother Abels' estate. Seth was a merchant at Buffalo, New York and in New York City.
