Buried: Second Church of Christ, Cromwell CT - An old patriarch who came to New England from Scotland. Many of his descendants have been men ofinfluence and position. It is something to come from a stock that has staying qualities and does not run out; it is something more to inherit the perfervidum ingenium Scotorum, a good man leaveth an inheritance to his children and his childrens children to the remotest generation. (Online) Thomas RANNEY (1616-1713) was the only one of his family to emigrate from Scotland. His daughter Mary (1665-1734) married John SAVAGE (1652-1726), son of JohnSavage in 1682. Thomas was the first buried at Middletown Upper Houses Cemetery which is now Cromwell. (Online)
