" Beginning at the foot of the hill near where stood long ago the old Sam Wire woolen mill, which is located at the intersection of the Chestnut Tree Hill road and the old Woodbury turnpike. Proceeding north we pass through a long stretch of woodland road. The first place worthy of notice is the old Davis farmhouse located on the top of the hill, where the tableland begins. This farmhouse, which is of colonial style, was built about the year 1820 and was owned and occupied by Otis Davis, a son of Col. John Davis. He had three sons." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/davis-01.html.

14B. H. Davis, Reminiscences of Oxford Homes and People (Seymour Record - 1913), Chapter 3. . " A short distance north of the College Farm is located the old Davis homestead. This place is situated on the corner of the road leading to Pinesbridge. The old original house was built about the year 1708 by Joseph Davis, one of the early pioneers of Oxford, then a part of the town of Derby. He was the father of Col. John Davis, the subject of our sketch. The house was of antique design, with a long sloping roof, the rear forming a veranda about eight feet wide and twelve feet long.
Col. John Davis was born in this house Sept. 28th, 1755. On April 19th, 1782, he married Mehitable Thomas, a daughter of Capt. Reuben Thomas of New Haven. They had 14 children:
Sarah, born March 31, 1783
Anson, born Sept. 5, 1785
Truman, born March 13, 1787

On the evening of Nov. 12, 1848, the old house was burned. There was quite a body of snow on the ground at the time and old Mr. Davis, unmindful of results and so eager was he to quench the fire that he went out in the cold barefooted and thinly clad, and threw snow on the burning building. Just previous to this he was injured while engaged in breaking a colt. He contracted a severe cold which resulted in his death Nov. 27, 1848, in his 94th year. Mehitable his wife died Dec. 27, 1852, in her 89th year." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/Davis-03.html.
15B. H. Davis, Reminiscences of Oxford, Chapter 9. " We next cross the bridge over Towantic Brook, well known to fishermen as one of the best trout streams in the Naugatuck Valley. Above this bridge about a mile are the ruins of an old sawmill which was built by the father of Col. John Davis about the middle of the 17th century, and was used for nearly a century, to convert the logs of the virgin forest into lumber for building purposes. It has long since fallen to decay.
... The ruins of an old saw mill are seen opposite the last mentioned place. This saw mill was built in the early part of the last century, by a stock company of which Col. John Davis was at the head, and many of the old residents had a share in the building, which enabled them to get their sawing done at little expense. About the year 1840 Burrett Davis and George Perry bought the mill from the stockholders and for many years after it was known as the Davis and Perry Sawmill. Many cold days the writer has worked in that old mill and many pleasant memories cluster around its associations, the old stone fire place where I was wont to bake potatoes and warm the dried beef of which I always had an adequate supply furnished by the liberal hand of my good mother. The old mill has long since fallen to decay and is numbered with the things that were." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/Davis-09.html.
