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.

Anne Hutchinson Claims That God Has Revealed Himself to Her 1637 In Massachusetts Bay, Anne Hutchinson held religious meetings that assaulted the Puritan practice of rele- gating women to the role of “man’s helper.” At the same time, her ideas promoted the importance of individ- ual conscience, none more so than when, on trial for her beliefs, she declared that she alone could determine whether God had entered her soul. Anne Hutchinson was born Anne Marbury in 1591 in Alford, Lincolnshire, England to Bridget Dryden and Francis Marbury, a dissenting Anglican clergyman. Exposed to theology at an early age, she became conversant in the ongoing turmoil between the Church of England, also called the Anglican church, and the Puritans, who thought the Anglicans morally corrupt and spiritually bankrupt. In the years after she married William Hutchinson, a merchant, in 1612, Anne Hutchinson gravitated toward the preaching of John Cotton, a Puritan. When Cotton immigrated to Massachusetts Bay in 1633, she convinced her husband they should do likewise, and in 1634 the couple, along with several of their children (she had 13 altogether), journeyed across the Atlantic. Because William Hutchinson was wealthy and prominent, he received a large plot of land in Boston for his family’s house, a practice in keeping with a complex distribution system in which the amount of land a Puritan received was related, in part, to his standing in society.

It argues that antinomians, by rejecting traditional concepts of social authority, created divisive political factions within the godly party while it waged war against King Charles I. At the same time in New England, antinomians organized a political movement that called for a democratic commonwealth to limit the power of ministers and magistrates in religious and civil affairs. When this program collapsed in Massachusetts, hundreds of colonists returned to an Old England engulfed by civil war. Joining English antinomians, they became lay preachers in London, New Model Army soldiers, and influential supporters of the republican Levellers. This dissertation also connects the study of republican political thought to the labor history of the first British Empire.

Reviewed by Marla Kohlman1 Eve LaPlante offers a very detailed journey back to the 17th century and places the reader in the midst of the life experiences of Anne Hutchinson, John Cotton, who would become the grandfather of the infamous Puritan minister Cotton Mather, and John Winthrop, the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the United States. The text is invaluable as an explanation of how the Puritans, who were growing increasingly displeased with the Anglican Church in England, came to see themselves as a separate sect of Anglican worshippers who sought to cleave more faithfully to certain Calvinist principles from which they believed the Church of England had been led astray.

  • Anne Hutchinson and the Puritans Who First Settled the New England Colony Is Not As Simplistic As We Have Been Led to Believe
    The Puritans Revisited and the Arrival of Anne Hutchinson in America By Richard Forliano, Eastchester Town Historian and George Pietarinen, Author of “Anne Hutchinson, A Puritan Woman of Courage” in the book Out of the Wilderness: The Emergence of Eastchester, Tuckahoe, and Bronxville This is the second in a series of articles on the Colonial and Revolutionary History of Eastchester Anne Hutchinson is perceived as a as a feminist hero who made courageous sacrifices for the right to follow her own conscience. On the other hand, the Puritan ministers of the Massachusetts Bay Colony who persecuted Anne are viewed as members of an absolutist theocracy, intolerant bigots whose version of Christianity maintained an insular purity. The brilliance and courage of Anne Hutchinson cannot be denied. Likewise, it is wrong to cast the Puritans as simply unbending, joyless fanatics who imposed their will through strict laws and terrible punishment. Anne Hutchison would be the first European to settle in the town of Eastchester but twenty one years after her massacre by indigenous tribes, it would be Puritan farm families that first settled and cast their imprint on our town. It is imperative not to judge 17th century individuals and events in terms of our own perceptions and values. The truth about Anne Hutchinson and the Puritans who first settled the New England colony is not as simplistic as we have been led to believe. For the Puritans the desire to escape religious persecution in Europe did not led to a belief in toleration for others. For those who came to America for religious reasons, their faith was central to their entire belief system and world view.

They were originally published under the title The New Haven Genealogical Magazine, and were consolidated and reprinted in eight volumes as as Families of Ancient New Haven (Rome, NY: Clarence D. Smith, Printer, 1923-1931; reprinted in three volumes with 1939 index Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1974). Their focus was upon the early families of that area, which are listed in alphabetical order. With a few exceptions this file begins with the ninth volume, when the magazine's title was changed to The American Genealogist and New Haven Genealogical Magazine and its scope was expanded. The title was shortened to The American Genealogist in 1937. The entries are listed by TAG volume. Each volume is preceded by the volume number and year(s) in boldface.
