Captain Charles Bulkeley was a Wethersfield ship captain and a privateer during the Revolutionary War, who died in the West Indies. He married Mary Griswold and had three sons who followed him to sea, including Captain Charles Bulkeley, Jr. The Bulkeley House, on Broad Street Green in Wethersfield, is a typical single-chimney, gambrel-roofed eighteenth-century ship captain’s home.
