Stone Family Association,'' Whose Formation in 1897, Was Very Largely Due to Her Interest and Efforts STONE FAMILY ASSOCIATION, 1897-1901. CATALOGUE OF MEMBERS, WITH LINES OF DESCENT. EDITED FROM THE MEMBERSHIP BLANKS. BY AGNES WYMAN LINCOLN. BOSTON, 1901. This catalogue is NOT uerified genealogy, but an attempt to bring before the Association, for proof or disproof, the data sent the Secretary, to the end that all may better help in correcting errors, settling dcubt~; filling gaps, and collecting items of interest wherewith to clothe the skeleton of names and dates. No original investigation has been attempted, nor has there been time for correspondence to any large extent, but cor.siderable care has been taken in comparing the blanks with one another and such local histories as were at hand- especialJy Bond's History of Watertown, Temple's History of Framingham, Paige ·s History of Cambridge. Butler's History of Groton, Watertown Records [before 1700 J, Lexington Records [ to 1850 ], etc. Omissions in blanks have often been filled without note, but differences of data have been mentioned when noticed, unless they were known to be errors or were evidently pen-slips. A wife's maiden surname is enclosed in parentheses, and in the shortened formula, such as "Simon [b. 1631 J a1:d Mary (Whipple) Stone," brackets enclose the birth; otherwise, either? or (?_) or interpolations in ( ) were found in the blank in question, while [?] or interpolations in [ ], mark comment or additions by the editor from other sources. The Roman figures always denote generations in known, or supposed, descent from Simon or Gregory, or some first comer contemporaneous with them ; said first-comer being I. In unconnected lines, the genera­ tions are numbered [l], [2], etc., beginning with the present time. The initials tc. s. o. 0.1 etc., are the initials of the four generatior:s in the Gregory and Simon lines. G, Gregory; S, Simon in Simon line and Samuel in Gregory; J, John; Jn., Jonathan; Jns., Jonas; Ja,, James; D, Daniel ; Da., David; N, Nathaniel usually. [ one Nathan J ; H, Hezekiah; Wat., Watertown; Camb., for Cambridge; Cone., Con­ cord; Lex., Lexington: Fram .. Framingham ; Sud., Sudbury; Sax., Saxonville; New. or Newt., Newton; Marl., Marlborough; Rut., Rut­ land, and Shrews., Shrewsbury, are the town abbreviations most frequentiy used: others are evi_dent within the paragraph. Read-b., born, m., married, d., died, bap. or bapt., baptized; Rev. sold, Revolutionary soldier. Where no state is given Massachusetts is to be understood, unless a place, has within the paragraph been assigned elsewhere. Some titles have been used as convenient means of distinguishing individuals. It is hoped that the mistakes, which undoubtedly abound in this catalogue, will save mistakes in our future volume, and all are invited to ferret them out, and give reasons for their own conclusions. The Secre­ tary, and certainly the editor, will be grateful for all that are called to their attention, and the latter will promise to annotate a copy with any such corrections for the benefit of our historian.

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.

  • February, 2021 Those of Us Who've Hung Around First Church For
    February, 2021 “Look to the rock from which you were hewn, and to the quarry from which you were dug.” Isaiah 51:1 Those of us who’ve hung around First Church for awhile will likely recognize the above quote; it’s one I’ve referenced frequently over the years. As a once-upon-a-time history major, I suspect my connection to Isaiah’s admonition is only natural. But beyond my personal affinity for mining the past to find inspiration for the present, I suspect the prophet’s guidance is anchored in wisdom. Not only as individuals, but also as a community, as a society, it is important to understand the stories that shape our identity. The “quarry” from which we were dug reveals tales of moral courage as well as examples of moral failure. We can learn from both. Recently, I read Creating Connecticut: Critical Moments That Shaped a Great State, by Walter Woodward. Walter Woodward is an associate professor of history at the University of Connecticut, and also serves as our Connecticut State Historian. Creating Connecticut is filled with stories regarding the evolution of our state. As we might imagine, our Congregational ancestors figure prominently in that narrative. In 1636, amid quarrels with clergy colleagues in Boston about the proper standard for church membership, Rev. Thomas Hooker (who favored a more inclusive path), his associate minister Rev. Samuel Stone, and 100 or so parishioners packed their bags and established a community on the banks of the Hog River. Rev. Stone had previously scouted out the spot, and so they named the place in honor of his hometown, Hertford, England.

Hartford Studies Collection: Papers by Students and Faculty. 4. https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/hartford_papers/4 History 835: History of Hartford Elizabeth Rose/Mark Jones Cheryl Magazine 5/12/03 Introduction The story of Hartford’s rise and fall as a city of wealth and influence can be told through the history of a relatively small plot of land in the southeast downtown area. Once home to a number of Hartford’s founding fathers but long since abandoned as affluence and mobility made the suburbs more attractive, it is now the site of a proposed redevelopment with ambitious hopes to attract the affluent back from the suburbs to live and conduct their lives in the downtown area once again. Although there is evidence that the land was used for agriculture by native Americans for nearly 3000 years1 before the Dutch explorer Adriaen Block arrived in 16142 and the Puritans followed two decades later, this paper will focus on patterns of land use from the arrival of Thomas Hooker in 1636 up to the present day. His neighbors, Richard Webb, John Haynes, James Olmsted, Samuel Stone, James Cole, William Pantrey and Thomas Scott were all founders of Hartford along with Hooker.3 In Hooker’s time, the path from his home on Meeting House Alley4 ran north to a small structure known as the Meeting House which served as the center of town government, religion and society.

Hartford Puritanism: Thomas Hooker, Samuel Stone, and Their eT rrifying God Description Statues of Thomas Hooker and Samuel Stone grace downtown Hartford, Connecticut, but few residents are aware of the distinctive version of Puritanism that these founding ministers of Hartford's First Church carried into the Connecticut wilderness (or indeed that the city takes its name from Stone's English birthplace). Shaped by interpretations of the writings of Saint Augustine largely developed during the ministers' years at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, Hartford's church order diverged in significant ways from its counterpart in the churches of the Massachusetts aB y Colony. Hartford Puritanism argues for a new paradigm of New England Puritanism.

  • Gleanings of Major Robert Thompson Namesake of Thompson CT
    Gleanings of Major Robert Thompson (also known as Major Robert Thomson) Namesake of Thompson CT Assembled December 25, 2016 Thompson CT Editor: Joseph Iamartino On Behalf of the Thompson Historical Society © 2016 Thompson Historical Society, Joseph Iamartino – Editor Note: Permission granted by Professor Alan Thomson to use his Thomson document for purposes of this manuscript. Major Robert Thompson The Thompson Historical Society Foreword by Joseph Iamartino: In Book I, Professor Alan Thomson has assembled a remarkable biography of Major Robert Thompson. The Major was involved in many of the principal events in one of the most dramatic centuries in recorded history. However, the information about Robert Thompson had to be found, piece by piece, like a jigsaw puzzle scattered after a tornado. In our Internet age, it is easy to “Google up” information on a person but Prof. Thomson’s effort came the old fashioned way, laboriously finding and then reading the dusty texts, with one clue leading to another, assembling piece upon piece of a puzzle. The challenge for readers is to understand that many elements of the life of such a complex man as Robert Thompson, with activities in the American colonies, on the European continent, even in India, remain hidden to us even with Professor Thomson’s insights. It is up to us to assemble the story knowing there are huge gaps but, at least we now have a chance of understanding his story thanks to Professor Thomson’s labor of love. My son Christian, who was attending college in the UK at the time, and I visited Professor Thomson in London when Alan so generously donated his text to the Thompson Historical Society.
