Jacent sailed from Lyons, France to Sydney, Wales about 1662 with his wife and family. Emigrated from Wales to America in 1668 on a vessel called 'Armenia' and landed in what is now Norwich, CT. where they soon came into possession of a tract of land. They were men of energy, thrift and foresight, and in consequence amassed wealth and secured themselves an extensive influence in business and social circles.
Moses was granted a house in New London, CT. in 1680. In 1690, he was in Norwich and in 1694 was granted land 'on a hill above the rock where the house stands'. In 1722 he appears among the inhabitants of the North Parish of New London in what is now Montville, CT.
