Shared Note #1
, the Reverend Ephraim Huet had been pastor at Knowle and Wroxall (or Wraxall, part of Kenilworth Parish) in Warwickshire, England, who arrived in Boston with his family in 1639, and later settled in the Windsor area of Connecticut. Reverend Huet's migration reportedly took place following his censure, indicating that he and his parish espoused the nonconformist Puritan doctrine. According to the Griswold Family Genealogy published in 1935, Ephraim Huet came to America aboard the [IT:Mary & John:IT], a 400-ton ship with a crew of about 50 officers and seamen which arrived at Nantasket on 30 May 1630. In
[UL:Planters of the Commonwealth:UL], author Charles Edward Banks provides the following description: [IT:Mary & John:IT], Thomas Chubb, Master, sailed from Plymouth, England, on 20 March 1630, with 140 passengers from the counties of Somerset, Dorset, and Devon under the patronage of the Reverend John White. All the passengers settled at Mattapan which was subsequently renamed Dorchester. There is no complete list of these Dorchester emigrants.
According to [UL:The New England Historical and Genealogical Register:UL], Volume 1, published in 1847, Reverend Ephraim Hewett arrived in New England in 1639. Windsor was the first English settlement in the Connecticut River valley. A trading post was established there 26 September 1633. Ephraim's estate was valued at £634. According to [UL:A Catalogue of the Names of the First Puritan Settlers of the Colony of Connecticut:UL], complied from the State and Town Records by R. R. Hinman, Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore, 1968, p. 3: "In 1631, Governor Winslow, of Plymouth, appears to have had his attention drawn to the settlement of Connecticut, and he made a journey to Connecticut soon after, and discovered Connecticut River. In 1632, some of the people of New Plymouth were in Connecticut, and soon after determined to erect a trading house at Windsor." On p. 41: "Huet, Rev. Ephraim, in 1639 he came from England to act as colleague with Rev. [John] Warham at Windsor, and was so settled there over the church. He was accompanied by several members of his church from England. He was a gentleman of education and of exemplary piety. He died in 1643 or 1644, and left a widow and four daughters, viz. Susannah, Mercy, Lydia and Mary, with a large estate." On p. 149: "Huit, Rev. Ephraim, (in No. 2), gave in his will, Great Island, at the Flatts, to the Court at Hartford, for the use of the country." On p. 219: "Huit, Rev. Ephraim, of Windsor -- died in 1643. Estate £633:19s. The widow survived him. Children -- no sons -- four daughters. The widow married a second time." According to [UL:Connecticut Colonists, Windsor 1635-1703:UL] by Jay Mack Holbrook, Holbrook Research Institute, Oxford, Massachusetts, 1986, p. iii: "These early [colonists] were largely families who followed Reverend Ephraim Huit from Dorchester, Massachusetts, in 1639 to the reported fertile fields of the Connecticut River Valley. A listing of these people shows about 65 household heads made the trek."
On p. ix is listed Huit, Rev. Mr., residing in the center of town, lot 11.
