Joel Chatfield, Sr. built a house a few hundred feet from his father's house, on the south bank of the stream, and the house was after owned and occupied by his son Leman. He was one of the First Society's Committee of the Episcopal Church (now Trinity Church) in 1797 in Milford, Connecticut. There was in his time a gristmill a few rods northeast of the house, with two run of stone. One pair were French Burr stones for which he sent to France, nothing of the kind having been found in this country at that time. He ground wheat extensively, large quantities of it being grown in this vicinity. For years he supplied Yale College with all the wheat flour used there.
