Notes:

"David Overton was a staunch patriot during the Revolution as were all of his sons. He, with all of his sons except Nehemiah who had just passed his 16th birthday, signed the Association in support of the American cause. They signed in the Fourth Company Limits of Brookhaven Town on June 8, 1775, witnessed by Ebenezer Dayton, Clerk. Through their patriotism it was necessary for most of the sons to take refuge to Connecticut when the British occupied this area after the Battle of Long Island.
David Overton and his family were connected with the Baptist Church of Coram which was the first Baptist Church in the county. The Baptist meeting house was erected in 1743 and stood on the site where the Methodist church now stands, until 1847 when it was sold and moved to Port Jefferson. This church was started by Rev. Noah Hammond who came from New London, Conn. He died of smallpox Nov. 4, 1774, while still the leader of the Baptist flock. He is buried in the adjoining cemetery. The families of David Overton and Rev. Noah Hammond were closely associated and two of David's sons, John and Palmer, married two of Rev. Noah Hammond's daughters, Lois and Lucretia. It was fortunate that members of the family at Coram had passed down the family Bible recording the names and information regarding David's sons, as the records of the old Baptist Church were destroyed when the home of Richard Smith at Coram was burned."
