522–523. Henry Castle was born in—say—1645, and died in Woodbury, Connecticut, on February 2, 1697/8. He suffered a year's illness before he died. Abigail Dickerson died in Woodbury in December, 1725. She is the daughter of Thomas Dickerson. They had seven children:
| i. | Henry Castle was born about 1666, and baptized in Woodbury in September, 1686. | |
| ii. | Samuel Castle was born about 1668, and baptized in Woodbury in September, 1686. | |
| iii. | Isaac Castle was born about 1672, baptized in Woodbury in September, 1686, and died on July 25, 1727. He married Sarah Adams; married 2nd, Joanna _____. | |
| iv. | Abigail Castle was born about 1675, and baptized in Woodbury in September, 1686. | |
| v. | Mary Castle [#261] | |
| vi. | Mercy Castle was born about 1677, and baptized in Woodbury in September, 1686. | |
| vii. | William Castle was born about 1684, and baptized in Woodbury in July, 1688. He married Rebecca Seeley on February 1, 1710/1. |
Henry Castle received a land grant in Fairfield on December 25, 1678. His wife, Abigail, received a legacy in 1667 from the will of Daniel Finch ("£7 to Henry Castle's wife"); his third wife was Mary, the widow of Thomas Dickerson. We can assume that she was his step-daughter and the daughter of Thomas Dickerson.
The first six children of Henry and Abigail were baptized together in Woodbury in September, 1686. Part of the confirmation that the mother of these children was, indeed, Abigail Dickerson, comes from the 1711 will of Mary, daughter of Roger and Elizabeth (Dickerson) Knapp, who referred to her as "aunt Casle".
Abigail took an oath to inventory her husband's estate; administration was
granted to their son, Henry. The ages of their children at that time were:
Henry 31, Samuel 29, Isaac 25, Abigail 22, Mary 20, Mercy 13, and William 10.
