    Notes:

    ||||Ensign, or Lieutenant, Leffingwell has made a place in history, as so many books give testament to.
    Thomas played a very important role in what is often referred to as the War for the Relief of Uncas. Chief Uncas of the Mohegan tribe, a valuable asset to the Colonists, was involved ina tribal war with a competing group of Indians. On a slab at the site of Uncas' old main fort, "Shantok", is written:

    Here stood the fort of
    Uncas
    Sachem of the Mogegans
    and friend of the English
    Here in 1645 when besieged
    by the Narragansetts
    he was relieved by
    the bravery of
    Lieutenant Thomas Leffingwell
    ----------
    Erected by the Colonial Dames
    1898
    (See Burpee's History of Connecticut, Vol. II, p.597)

    Leffingwell built and operated the Leffingwell Inn, a "house of public entertainment" sometime shortly after 1700 (See Trilogy, pp. 177-178). The house still stands at 348 WashingtonStreet, and has been proclaimed the oldest in Norwich. In fact, George Washington, on April 8, 1776, "partook of the Hospitalities of Leffingwell Inn". In additon to the Inn, Thomas hadpaper and fulling mills, and a store that sold "lamb's gloves, sattin, cambricks and stuff shose; lute strings, palongs and humhums".
    It was noted in Trilogy that the Leffingwell house may have been built onto the old Backus residence; local historians say the house was built by Stephen Backus.
