Notes:
BIOGRAPHY: Mrs. Abigail (Foote) Loomis joined the Wadsworth Chapter on November4, 1897, when ninety-nine years old. She had lived in the lifetime of every President of this country, having been born before the death of Washington, and her memory of the events of her early life extended with clearness back to the time of John Adams, second President. She was sixth in descent from Nathaniel Foote, 1st, who was one of the first settlers of Wethersfield, Connecticut. Another ancestor of Mrs. Abigail (Foote) Loomis was Thomas Kimberly, who with Mr. Davenport, Mr. Eaton and other gentlemen of good fortune, were the founders of New Haven. Abigail Foote, the patriot's daughter, and his eleventh and youngestchild, received her education in the public schools of her native place and atBacon Academy. In 1826 she was married to Alfred Isham Loomis and her entire married life of fifty-six years was spent in the old homestead, where she went as a bride. This homestead has been handed down from father to son since the settlement of the town two hundred years ago. In 1876 Mr. and Mrs. Loomis celebrated their golden wedding. After her husband's death Mrs. Loomis made her home with her daughter. (footnoted - it was Mrs. Philo Bevin of East Hampton, Connecticut) Alfred Isham Loomis and Abigail (Foote) Loomis, his wife, had seven children, fifteen grandchildren and seventeen great-grandchildren, as follows:
