• Research Notes: Denison, Captain George of Stonington, Connecticut by John Denison Baldwin. 2 "Captain George Denison and Lady Ann were both remarkable for magnificent personal appearance, and for force of mind and character. They had a foremost place in Stonington, Connecticut. At the time of their marriage in 1645, she was 30 years old and he was 27. He was described as the Miles Standish of the settlement; but he was a greater and more brilliant soldier than Miles Standish. He had no equal in any of the colonies for conducting a war against the Indians, excepting perhaps Captain John Mason."
