Notes
General:
His grave was "re-discovered" by Dwight C. Brown in what had been called the "Wilcox Lot" and is now known as "Westerly Cemetery No. 03". William's stone reads: "Here lyeth the body of William Champlin, who deceased in the 62nd year of his age December First 1715". This cemetery is located along Shore Road between Westerly and Dunn's Corners, just past the golf course. Driving west on Shore Road, the golf course is to your left. After this the road dips then curves left and uphill. Just before the next road leading off to the right, there is a small sign for the cemetery in the midst of a stand of bull briers, just behind a stone wall on the left side of Shore Road. Access to the cemetery now is by climbing over the wall. On May 5, 1995 I located this small cemetery. There are a number of small unmarked stones buried next to William's, one of which is likely that of his wife. All of the other stones seemed to belong to members of the Gavitt family.

William joined the Connecticut campaign during King Phillip's War and took part in the "Great Swamp Battle" near the present site of North Kingston, Rhode Island on December 9, 1675. In 1696, he and others, were granted (by the General Court of Connecticut) six square miles of land in the present town of Voluntown, Connecticut as a reward for their services.

He took an active part in local and colonial political affairs throughout his life. Among the highlights of William's public career were these events:

- elected twenty three times to the Rhode Island General Assembly
1679: - appointed to levy a tax in Westerly
1681: - made a Freeman
- the Westerly Town Meeting was held in his home

1693: - purchased 100 acres of land from Gershon Cottrell
1694: - sold 50 acres to John Davis
1695: - elected Conservator of the Peace

1709: - At a Town Meeting held on April 7th, William was "voted Ninecraft, sachem, for "a perpetual high road to the salt water from Queen's Rhoade".

On July 6, 1682 William Champlin of Westerly sold the sloop "Tryall" to James Robertson of the Barbadoes. The "Tryall" was built by John Lewis of New London, shipwright, and weighed 18-19 tons. 37,38

Notes
General:
He was made a "freeman" of Westerly in 1700 and on June 25, 1707 was chosen "Rattemaker" (tax assessor). A large land owner who became wealthy through the buying and selling of various properties, William represented Westerly in the Rhode Island General Assembly in 1728, 1731 and 1732. He was appointed Justice of the Peace in May 1741 and again in May 1742.

William's Will, dated August 3, 1746 indicates that he gave several large tracts of land to his children prior to his death. He left nearly 3,000 pounds cash, various household articles, several farm animals, a Negro girl valued at 150 pounds and a 12 year old Indian girl valued at 40 pounds. 36,37,38
