Connecticut politician William Williams (1731-1811) was a Founding Father, a member of the Sons of Liberty, a member of the Connecticut Committee of Correspondence and Council of Safety, a delegate to the Continental Congress in 1776, and a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Connecticut politician Jonathan Trumbull, Jr. (1740-1809) was a Revolutionary War Patriot and leader, who in March 1775 was elected to sit in the Connecticut General Assembly. While still in that position, the Continental Congress elected him "pay master of the forces for the New York department," with the rank of colonel. Following this was his November 3, 1778 election to be the first comptroller of the U.S. Treasury. On June 8, 1781 he was appointed to succeed Alexander Hamilton as George Washington's secretary. His military duties ended with Washington's resignation in 1784, and at this time he returned to Connecticut where in 1788 he once again sat in the General Assembly, this time as Speaker.
