"The family seem to have owned lands in the town of Litchfield about these times as certain deeds show. I here quote two :

Jan. 30, 1802. Barzilla Blake, of Litchfiield, sells to his brother Jesse, of Torrington, two pieces of land in Litchfield. One of 5 acres, bounded on land belonging to the heirs of Joseph Blake, deceased, south on Louis Blake's land, it being the one half of eleven acres owned by Barzilla and Jesse in common. Second piece, three-fourths of an acre, that was set out to me (Barzilla) in the distribution of my mother's interest in the estate of my late honored father, Joseph Blake; land described as set out to my sister Candace, and all the right that I have in the late dwelling house of my father deceased."
