!None of these children were christened while the father was living (or at
home) and only the third was christened at all (in Hartford). The family
history states that "after the death of the father, the mother apprenticed out
the son to an old Quaker, from whom he ran away. The 1790 census of Conn. does
not list either Elisha or Susanna as head of a family. No record of this death
has been found.
Susannah married again in 1796 and removed to New York (could there have
been a divorce, or Elisha left home?)
In August 1786 Elisha "formerly of Farmington, now of Hartford" for bad
husbandry and mismanagement was taken under the care of the Selectmen of
Farmington, but was released when he moved to Hartford.

history states that "after the death of the father, the mother apprenticed out
the son to an old Quaker, from whom he ran away. The 1790 census of Conn. does
not list either Elisha or Susanna as head of a family. No record of this death
has been found.
