9/15/2015 Ch. 3 and 4 Test Review European Exploration and Colonization Led about one hundred people from Massachusetts to settle along the Connecticut River. Later three settlements merged to form the Connecticut Colony. This colony put Hooker's principles, into Thomas Hooker practice when it adopted the Fundamental Orders sometimes called the first written constitution. These principles included the idea that voting should be extended to non-church members. He established a colony in Pennsylvania as a refuge for Quakers and a place where they could create a government based on their William Penn own standards. Penn attempted to treat Native Americans and settlers from other colonies residing in the grant fairly. Agreement drafted in 1620 by Pilgrim leaders and signed by the 41 men aboard the Mayflower prior to going ashore at Mayflower Compact Plymouth Bay in Massachusetts. It outlined a form of (1620) government based on a social compact It set a precedent for later documents in the development of self-government. Created in 1639, it was a frame of government for the colony of Connecticut. It is considered the first constitution in the Fundamental Orders American colonies. The Fundamental Orders extended of Connecticut voting rights to non-church members and limited the powers (1639) of the governor, thus expanding the ideas of representative government, written by Thomas Hooker. 1 9/15/2015 Fundamental Orders of Connecticut 1639 the first constitution in the American colonies; extended voting rights to non-church members and limited the powers of the governor, expanded ideas of representative government House of Burgesses 1619 Mayflower Compact 1620 The First Representative Body in first system of self- the colonies; Virginia government in America.

    Connecticut Unscathed: Victory in The Great Narragansett War (King Philip’s War), 1675-1676 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Major Jason W. Warren, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin Jr., Advisor Alan Gallay, Kristen Gremillion Peter Mansoor, Geoffrey Parker Copyright by Jason W. Warren 2011 Abstract King Philip’s War (1675-1676) was one of the bloodiest per capita in American history. Although hostile native groups damaged much of New England, Connecticut emerged unscathed from the conflict. Connecticut’s role has been obscured by historians’ focus on the disasters in the other colonies as well as a misplaced emphasis on “King Philip,” a chief sachem of the Wampanoag groups. Although Philip formed the initial hostile coalition and served as an important leader, he was later overshadowed by other sachems of stronger native groups such as the Narragansetts. Viewing the conflict through the lens of a ‘Great Narragansett War’ brings Connecticut’s role more clearly into focus, and indeed enables a more accurate narrative for the conflict. Connecticut achieved success where other colonies failed by establishing a policy of moderation towards the native groups living within its borders. This relationship set the stage for successful military operations. Local native groups, whether allied or neutral did not assist hostile Indians, denying them the critical intelligence necessary to coordinate attacks on Connecticut towns. The English colonists convinced allied Mohegan, Pequot, and Western Niantic warriors to support their military operations, giving Connecticut forces a decisive advantage in the field.
  • Puritan New England: Plymouth

    Puritan New England: Plymouth

    Puritan New England: Plymouth A New England for Puritans The second major area to be colonized by the English in the first half of the 17th century, New England, differed markedly in its founding principles from the commercially oriented Chesapeake tobacco colonies. Settled largely by waves of Puritan families in the 1630s, New England had a religious orientation from the start. In England, reform-minded men and women had been calling for greater changes to the English national church since the 1580s. These reformers, who followed the teachings of John Calvin and other Protestant reformers, were called Puritans because of their insistence on purifying the Church of England of what they believed to be unscriptural, Catholic elements that lingered in its institutions and practices. Many who provided leadership in early New England were educated ministers who had studied at Cambridge or Oxford but who, because they had questioned the practices of the Church of England, had been deprived of careers by the king and his officials in an effort to silence all dissenting voices. Other Puritan leaders, such as the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, John Winthrop, came from the privileged class of English gentry. These well-to-do Puritans and many thousands more left their English homes not to establish a land of religious freedom, but to practice their own religion without persecution. Puritan New England offered them the opportunity to live as they believed the Bible demanded. In their “New” England, they set out to create a model of reformed Protestantism, a new English Israel. The conflict generated by Puritanism had divided English society because the Puritans demanded reforms that undermined the traditional festive culture.

ByV I a y of Introduction WHILE I w as living in the home of that sturdy Puritan governor, William Leete, — my native town of Guil ford, — the idea suggested itself to me that inasmuch as a collection of the biographies of the chief executives of Connecticut had never been made, the work would afford an interesting and agreeable undertaking. This was in the year 1895. 1 began the task, but before it had far progressed it offered what seemed to me insurmountable obstacles, so that for a time the collection of data concerning the early rulers of the state was entirely abandoned. A few years later the work was again resumed and carried to completion. The manuscript was requested by a magazine editor for publication and appeared serially in " The Connecticut Magazine." To R ev. Samuel Hart, D.D., president of the Connecticut Historical Society, I express my gratitude for his assistance in deciding some matters which were subject to controversy.

    Ancestors of Alice Irene Frazee

    Ancestors of Alice Irene Frazee by Carlyle E. Hystad Ancestors of Alice Irene Frazee by Carlyle E. Hystad First Edition March 2008 1 Ancestors of Alice Irene Frazee Introduction Deep Roots in America This document is my effort to describe the information I have collected over many years regarding the ancestor’s of my mother, Esther Frazee, and the same information applies to her sister, Alice Irene Frazee. I have collected an enormous amount of information, with thousands of names and dates and places, which can be rather boring and meaningless and confusing. So I have attempted to present the information in a way that will be meaningful and useful, and maybe even intriguing, enjoyable, and educational. Alice’s father was Morris Clifford Frazee, and I have traced some of his ancestors back to the Pilgrims’ Plymouth Colony. And an ancestor was one of the first settlers of Staten Island in what was then New Netherland. Alice’s mother was Pearl May Finley, and I have traced several of her ancestors back to the Pilgrims’ Plymouth Colony, and at least four of her ancestors came over on the Mayflower. And one ancestor is likely the only person to have lived in the Jamestown settlement in Virginia and subsequently came to Plymouth Colony on the Mayflower. And at least two of her ancestors survived shipwrecks while crossing the Atlantic! Alice’s Grandparents Alice’s father’s parents were Moses Robinett Frazee and Harriet Ellen Morris. Alice’s mother’s parents were Andrew Theodore Finley, and Mary Elizabeth Rose Smith. I have been able to obtain information on ancestors of all four grandparents.

    Colonies with Others Puritan Colonies Were Self-Governed, with Each Town Having Its Own Government Which Led the People in Strict Accordance with Puritan Beliefs

    Note Cards 1. Mayflower Compact 1620 - The first agreement for self-government in America. It was signed by the 41 men on the Mayflower and set up a government for the Plymouth colony. 2. William Bradford A Pilgrim, the second governor of the Plymouth colony, 1621-1657. He developed private land ownership and helped colonists get out of debt. He helped the colony survive droughts, crop failures, and Indian attacks. 3. Pilgrims and Puritans contrasted The Pilgrims were separatists who believed that the Church of England could not be reformed. Separatist groups were illegal in England, so the Pilgrims fled to America and settled in Plymouth. The Puritans were non-separatists who wished to adopt reforms to purify the Church of England. They received a right to settle in the Massachusetts Bay area from the King of England. 4. Massachusetts Bay Colony 1629 - King Charles gave the Puritans a right to settle and govern a colony in the Massachusetts Bay area. The colony established political freedom and a representative government. 5. Cambridge Agreement 1629 - The Puritan stockholders of the Massachusetts Bay Company agreed to emigrate to New England on the condition that they would have control of the government of the colony. 6. Puritan migration Many Puritans emigrated from England to America in the 1630s and 1640s. During this time, the population of the Massachusetts Bay colony grew to ten times its earlier population. 7. Church of England (Anglican Church) The national church of England, founded by King Henry VIII. It included both Roman Catholic and Protestant ideas. 8. John Winthrop (1588-1649), his beliefs 1629 - He became the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay colony, and served in that capacity from 1630 through 1649.

We are reminded by these anniversaries of those who, crossing the At- lantic in such little ships as the Arbella and Tthe Griffin, laid down the keels of these ships of state, these free and noble commonwealths in which we have found safety in storms and pure delight in peace. One of the most notable of those journeymen of God was our own great fellow citizen, Thomas Hooker, a statesman of the first rank and a powerful preacher of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Thomas Hooker was born in 1586, in the hamlet of Marfield, in the parish of Tilton, in the county of Leices- ter, England. That region is the midland of England, and there in those neighborhoods of Stratford, Bedford, and Huntingdon were born Shakespeare, Bunyan, and Crom- well. From the hilltops in that parish you could see in his day, and you can see today, one of the most beautiful landscapes in that English countryside. On one of those hilltops stands St. Peter's Parish Church; a stone, Gothic church built in the middle of the twelfth century. It was 1 four hundred years old when Thomas Hooker was bap- tized at its old font in 1586, and it is almost eight hun- dred years old today. The parish had few inhabitants in the middle of the sixteenth century, and it had few in- habitants in the middle of the nineteenth.

JOHN COTTON'S MIDDLE WAY A THESIS presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History The University of Mississippi by GARY A. ROWLAND August 2011 Copyright Gary A. Rowland 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Historians are divided concerning the ecclesiological thought of seventeenth-century minister John Cotton. Some argue that he supported a church structure based on suppression of lay rights in favor of the clergy, strengthening of synods above the authority of congregations, and increasingly narrow church membership requirements. By contrast, others arrive at virtually opposite conclusions. This thesis evaluates Cotton's correspondence and pamphlets through the lense of moderation to trace the evolution of Cotton's thought on these ecclesiological issues during his ministry in England and Massachusetts. Moderation is discussed in terms of compromise and the abatement of severity in the context of ecclesiastical toleration, the balance between lay and clerical power, and the extent of congregational and synodal authority.
