John Sturdevant of Danbury bought of Nathan Botsford for .£55, 37 acres of land in Shepaug Neck, "at the head of Weewaukees Brook," May 20, 1767, and settled in the town soon after. He gave to his son John Sturdevant, a piece of land and one half of his shop, which land is said to have been near the " southeast corner of his milk-room." The shop was that of a wheelwright, the maker and repairer of wheels and wheel-carriages.

Descendants of this family still reside in the town.
