      Nathaniel, son Richard & Elizabeth, b June 8, 1720
      ------
      Hon Nathan Sackett, 1720-177-, Greenwich, Conn., was married about 1739, to Anne Bush, daughter of Justus Bush, Jr., oldest son of Justus Bush and his wife Anne Smith, of Rye, Westchester County, NY. Anne Bush Sackett died about 1746 and Nathaniel Sackett was married to his second wife, Elisabeth, who died May 1, 1757. On May 10, 1760 he was married to his third wife, widow Sarah Lockwood. For a year or two previous to his first marriage he resided in New York City, and was in business there for several thereafter. During said period he was a member of Capt. Van Horne's militia company. About 1753 he established his permanent home at Greenwich, and from 1756 to 1760, inclusive, represented that town in the General Assembly of Conn. And from 1757 to 1760, inclusive, he was a Justice of Peace for the County of Fairfield. The records of St. John's Church, Stamford, Conn., show that on Jan. 22, 1758, "John, Elisabeth, William, Henry, Charity and Mary - the last two twins - children of Nathaniel and Elisabeth Sackett of Horseneck in Greenwich," were baptized there. Justus Sackett was the oldest and may have been the only child of Nathaniel Sackett and his first wife, Anne Bush. There is some uncertainty as to which of his wives was the mother of any one of his children not mentioned above. [Weygant, p. 69]
      ------
      Following the death of his mother: Oct. 2, 1739, Nathaniel Sackett, made choice of Jabez Mead to be his guardian, page 101.
