"  Returning from a trip up the Mountain road we proceed a short distance north and come to another old landmark which for many years was the home of Clark Botsford.  It is located under the shadows of an old primeval forest where the sun is hardly seen until towards noon.
 Mr. Botsford was one of the most thrifty residents of Chestnut Tree Hill. He owned a large and productive farm, and in connection with farming he was engaged extensively in the timber business, being associated with Burritt Davis in getting ship timber for New York.
 He was twice married. His first wife was Betsy M. Hine. Three children were born to them." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/Davis-08.html.

"  Journeying back to the main road, and taking a short trip up the old abandoned road which once was the main road to Chestnut Tree Hill, not far from the old schoolhouse there lived many years ago a very eccentric character. his name was Ransom Hine. He built a cabin and lived the live of a recluse. Many of the older readers of The Record will remember the old many.  He was employed by the farmers in the neighborhood and always returned each night to his lonely wigwam. He was accustomed to visit Naugatuck for supplies every two weeks.  On his last trip it was claimed he fell or was pushed from the bridge at Millville and was drowned. This happened 54 years ago this coming November, but the writer remembers it very distinctly.  The cellar of his cabin still remains but is overgrown with trees and brushwood." http://www.our-oxford.info/davis-reminiscences/Davis-15.html.
