  • Notes 
    • 286. Nathan Champion (Nathan, John, Thomas, Thomas, Henry), born 5 November 1781, in East Hampton, Conn.; died 13 January 1868, in Bridgeport, Conn.; married in Chatham, Conn., 28 November 1811, Mercy Bevin, daughter of Isaac and Sarah (Clark) Bevin, born 3 March 1782, in Chatham; died 28 August 1843, in Winsted, Conn.

      Nathan Champion was brought up by his grandfather Hinckley in Chatham. In 1812 he came to Winsted in the town of Winchester, Litchfield County, and began casting clock bells, to which he afterwards added other castings; and was the only iron founder in the town until 1833, a period of twenty-one years. He continued in this business many years, residing in his house on North Main Street, next north of the new graded school building. He died, after a blameless and exemplary life, in Bridgeport, while on a visit to his son. Mr. Champion was a prominent in Masonic circles and at the time of his death was one of the oldest members of that fraternity in Connecticut.
