About Caleb Church
Caleb Church was a third generation descendant from Richard Warren who arrived in America on the ship Mayflower in 1620. See Mayflower Descendants Through Five Generations, Volume 18, Part 1, Third Edition, published by General Society of Mayflower Descendants 2004, pages 30-31.

"Caleb removed from Hingham to Dedham about 1688 and engaged in business as a miller and millwright. Among the earliest records of Oxford, Massachusetts, is a contract with Caleb to build a mill there. The town of Dedham had reserved 20 acres of land for a mill site and sold a part to Caleb in 1677. On June 8, 1680, he sold part of the corn mill at Watertown.
About this time he went to Watertown, Massachusetts, where he operated a mill and on June 8, 1680, he sold part of the corn mill at Watertown. Besides milling, he was licensed to keep an inn, which he did until 1711. He sold the inn in 1712 to Thomas LEARNED, who kept a tavern there for 50 years. March 22, 1705-06, Caleb mortgaged 12 acres of pasture land known as the "Dirty Green." He was received into full communion March 4, 1687, but did not become a freeman until March 22, 1690, apparently in preparation for his election as Selectman. He held that office for 7 years and was Representative for Watertown in 1713. Caleb with his brother Benjamin purchased a majority interest in the water power at Fall River upon whichthe important industries of that city have been founded since, but he soon sold his half to his brother Benjamin for 100 pounds.
He died in intestate and proceedings on his estate dragged on years, with several changes of administrator and dissension among the children. On November 24, 1724 the heirs other than Isaac CHURCH agreed that Rebekah and Joshua WARREN, son-in-law, would be administrators.
