Excerpt from Life Sketches of Father Walworth: With Notes and Letters Clarence was the great-grandson of John vval worth of Groton, Conn, born on Fisher's Island, 1696; died, 1748. He was a prosperous farmer and shipwright, who served the colonies as a comet and captain of dragoons, belonging to the 8th Regi ment, in the days of Governor Law. His father and the gr-eat - great-grandfather of Clarence was William Walworth, the first settler on Fisher's Island, who emigrated from England to New London county, conn., in 1689.
