Notes:
from this page: (edited slightly)
Paul Peck was born in England, anywhere from 1608 to 1623. Ira Peck, in A GENEALOGICAL HISTORY OF THE DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH PECK, states that it is believed he came to Boston in 1635 from Essex Co, England in the "Defence". No proof has been found to support this knowledge. He came to Hartford, Conn. in 1639 though not as an original proprietor. When he died in Hartford on 23 Dec. 1695, his age was recorded as 87. Jacobus believes this to be in error as he would have been too old for his wife and children, and as he listed his age in the 60's in a 1683 reference.
He was almost always referred to as "Deacon Paul Peck". He was the first preacher in Weathersfield, CT. Jacobus and Savage are also related to this Paul Peck through his son Paul and granddaughter Ruth who married Samuel Sedgwick, Jr.
In Paul's will, he lists his eldest son, Paul and grandson Samuel Peck (who lived with him). Samuel was to make payments to Paul's son-in-law, Joseph Benton and granddaughter Ruth Beach. His wife is to be paid annually by his sons (Paul and Joseph Peck), and four daughters, Martha Cornwell, Mary Andrews, Elizabeth Howe of Wallingford, and Sarah Clarke. Sons Paul and Joseph, and son-in-law John Shepherd were executors. A possible sibling to Paul Peck, is William Peck, b. 1604, London. He died in Old Lyme, Ct. on Oct. 4, 1684. (F-415)
