Notizen zu dieser Person
of Braintree
Joseph was a woolen-draper. Several sources say he sailed from London,England 11 April 1638, on the ship "Susan and Ellen," arriving in Boston, Mass. 17 July 1638. Other sources claim he probably came to Windsorin the summer or autumn of 1639 in company with Rev. Ephraim Huet, whoarrived at Windsor, Aug. 17, 1639. Records indicate he stayed about a year in Dorchester, Mass. Town records of Windsor, Conn. show that on 2Feb. 1640, he was granted 21 acres from the Plantation adjoining Farmington River on the west side of the Conn. River. This acreage included the site of the first English settlement made in Conn. Also there were several large tracts of land on the east side of the Conn., partly fromthe town and partly purchased. His house was near the mouth of the Farmington River on "The Island." That area was called "the Island" becausewhen raining, the Connecticut River overflowed, causing it to temporarily become an island. Joseph and Mary had 8 children, all born in England, and came to America with them.
