			:notes: ["Andrew settled in Gloucester Ma as early as 1642.  He was made a freeman in 1643 and was elected constable on 7 Jan 1643.  On 26 April (2nd mo.) 1648 the County Court issued him a license to keep a house of entertainment and to sell wine (Parkhurst). Andrew, his wife Barbara, and their four children moved with Rev. Blynman's party to Pequot (New London Ct) in 1651.  He received a grant of land on 19 Oct 1650 and settled on lot #4 on Cape Ann Lane, a street in the rear of the town. He was elected constable and collector of taxes for New London in 1668. Together with Hugh Caulkins, John Elderkin and Mr. Denison, Andrew was given rights to the marsh between the town and Alewine Brook on condition that they drain it. He also bought other land on 12 Jul 1659.  On 1 Nov 1665 Andrew deeded \"with the full and free consent of my now wife Ann Lester\" 250 acres in Groton to his sons Daniel and Andrew; he also gave each of them 20 pounds (Book 3, 1652-1667 p.299 New London land records - noted by Parkhurst). The younger Andrew remained on that land in North Groton;Daniel sold his land on 13 Feb 1677/8 and remained on the west side ofthe river near his brothers Timothy, Joseph and Benjamin. 1670   The last will and testament of Andrew Lester, Senior...decsd Jany 7, 1669, was [  ] in Court, proved, and ordered to be recorded (Court Records of New London County  Vol.2, p.4). In settling Andrew's estate, Nathaniel Millet of Gloucester Ma signed 3 May, 1670 a receipt in behalf of Andrew's wife Ann for her share of her father's estate - 20 pounds. The three younger sons signed receipts and received their portions as they came of age.  Timothy received land in New London in 1684, Joseph and Benjamin received their portions in 1686/7."]
