Benjamin Tuttle, s. of William and Elizabeth Tuttle, bp. Oct 29, 1648 at New Haven, CT. He d. unmarried following his execution at Stamford, Conn. by hanging for the axe murder of his sister Sarah. That Benjamin is interred where this memorial originally claims is questionable as people in this era who bore a certain stigma (died of a contagious disease, committed suicide or executed for a crime) were rarely interred in a recognized cemetery.
