Chauncey Judd Captive Cavalier’s Moonlit Rescue Tale
Waterbury youth Chauncey Judd was captured by Tory raiders while traveling from Judd’s Meadows in 1780. A long night march, a near execution beside a moonlit pool, and a dramatic escape by neighbors led to his release and a life of two marriages, ending with a later union of uncertain name.
