First Generation First Generation 1. HURD HURD were married. HURD had the following children: +2 i. Adam HURD, married ? ?; died between 1671 and 1673. +3 ii. John HURD, born between 1612 and 1614, Somersetshire, England,; married ? ?; married Sarah THOMPSON, on 1 Dec 1662 or 10 Dec 1662, Stratford, Fairfield Co., CT; died on 4 Feb 1681 or 1682, Stratford, Fairfield Co., CT,,. Second Generation 2. Adam HURD,,,,,, (-1) died between 1671 and 1673. "On 30 June 1671 John Beach purchases four acres of meadow for Adam Hurd and John Hurd Jr. (1:117). On 29 April 1673 Nathaniel Porter purchased from John Hurd Junior "all his and his father Adam Hurds swamp Division" (1:215). Thus it appears that Adam Hurd died between 1671 and 1673."

Stiles Note 1: "Evidence to date suggests that Adam(1) Hurd, with brother John(1) Hurd, may have arrived in Massachusetts about 1635 and in October of that year joined the band of 60 colonists who went overland from Boston and made the first settlements in Connecticut at Windsor, Hartford and Wethersfield. Have found no record of such arrival, nor of their being in Massachusetts. There seems to be no record of Adam(1) in Windsor, but records there of 1640 show that John(1) Hurd owned a lot which he had sold. Have found no birth, death or marriage records for Adam(1); probate and land records are yet to be checked." TBH Note 2: "Letter 4 Feb 1951 Mrs. Clara M. Allen to TBH. I have not verified this data. TBH." ~ John Hurd born about 1585 Somersetshire England, died Windsor Conn. Married 9-Nov. 1607 at Martok Somersetshire England Margaret Houching. ~ Adam Hurd born 1611 Somersetshire England, died Stratford Conn. Married 1640 Hannah Bartram or Bertram of Stratford. ~ John Hurd born 1642 Stratford, died 1683 Stratford. Married 10 Dec. 1662 Mrs. Joshua Judson (Joanna or Anna Porter) Born 1626 Messing Essex England, died Stratford Conn. "There are know errors in the above; all should be verified." TBH Note 3: Hurd "Adam, brother John, probably came to Stratford from Windsor. Concerning him see Orcutt's History of the Old Town of Stratford, Conn., pp. 111 and 1225." (Stiles, 1891. pg 415) Note 4: "Hurd, Adam, came with his brother John to Stratford, among or with the first settlers, in 1639. He married Hannah, daughter of John Bartram, so said." They had a son. "John who is called Junior, and John Hurd, Sen., is said by the town clerk to be his uncle, which was no doubt true." (Orcutt, 1886. pg 1225) Note 5: "Adam Hurd had two house lots in Stratford, Nos. 31 and 35." (Orcutt, 1886. pg 111) Note 6: Adam Hurd owned lots in Stratford: No. 18 "in the outfield" and No. 31 "of the Saquestered land". (Jacobus, 1934. pg 56) Note 7: "Hurd, Adam, Brother of John, Sr., is said to have had wife Hannah." (Jacobus, 1930. pg 312) Note 8: 14 May 1669 Adam Hurd and John Hurd, Jr. as members of the First Church of Stratford signed a petition to the General Court of Connecticut. (Cothren, 1854. pg 129) Note 9: "Hurd, Adam, Stratford, br. of John the first, lived there 1650 to 69, had wife Hannah and son John." "John, Windsor, among first settlers but not, like most of them from Dorchester." (Savage, 1860. pg 505) Adam HURD and ? ? were married. "Though it is wrong, Adam's wife is usually spoken of as Hannah, and as the daughter of John Bartram of Stratford. Adam's wife probably came to Stratford with him since full home-lots were seldom assigned to unmarried men, but her identity is probably completely unknown, even her first name. She certainly was not John Bartram's daughter Hannah was born at Stratford, 28 June 1668 and was not yet six when Adam died! The connection with John Bartram probably derives from the probate of his estate. John(2) Hurd Jr. [Adam(1)] and his wife settled this estate...Administrators were usually men. Since John Jr.'s wife was a party to the settlement, the connection with John Bartram may have been through her..." "In a complicated agreement dated 16 March 1671...Adam(1) Hurd's remaining lands plus lands held by John(2) Hurd Jr. in his own right by purchase are now to be held jointly by both men and to pass to son John at Adam's death...signed by Adam Hurd, John hurd and hannah hurd...the conclusion that Adam(1) Hurd had a wife Hannah seems to have come from this record, but two facts indicate otherwise. First, all of Adam(1) Hurd's lands, including both home-lots, went to his son John(2), with no provision for any wife of Adam, not even the usual one that the son take care of her during her widowhood. Second, if this were only transfer of Adam's rights to John, then only Adam's wife should sign, but John is granting rights in his own lands to Adam. Therefore, both wives should sign, but we find only "hanna." The conclusion must be that Adam's wife was dead, that "hanna" is John's wife Anna, and that Adam(1) Hurd's wife is entirely unknown. The spellings Anna and Hannah...are known to have been used interchangeably." Hurd, Thaddeus B. Hurd Errors--Some Corrections. The American Genealogist. Vol. 50, No. 1. January 1974, pg. 1-10.

John HURD,,,,,,,,,, (Adam-2, -1) died before 1690 in Woodbury, Litchfield Co., CT ?. "John(1) Hurd appears in early Stratford Ct. records as John Hurd, Jr., to distinguish him from his uncle John(2) Hurd called John Hurd, Sr. On 3 Mar 1688/9 Adam Hurd deeded to his son John Adam's 2 home lots and 6 other parcels of land in Stratford (Wilcoxson. pg 93-94). On 14 May 1669 Adam(1) and John(2) signed a petition to the General Court on behalf of the First Church of Stratford (Cothren, Vol 1&2. pg 129). John became a member of this church on 30 Apr 1676 (Jacobus, The American Genealogist, Vol. 13. Stratford First Church Records). In 1678 he sold a home lot in Stratford to Richard Blackleash (Patterson) and on 6 Sep 1678 "for a mill and other considerations" he purchased from Jeremiah Judson (brother of his wife's first husband) for 140 pounds a "mill situate in Woodbury" (Hurd, Elmira. Deeds). He probably moved to Woodbury at about this time where he became the town's "first regular miller" (Cothren, Vol 1&2. pg 66). About 1680 he erected his house in Woodbury now owned and preserved by the Old Woodbury Historical Society (Old Woodbury Historical Society to TBH). On 28 Aug 1681 the town granted him accommodations (land and mill rights) to build a grist mill on the Pomperaug River, which he erected just west of his house (Cothren, Vol 1&2. pg 67). He and his wife joined the Woodbury Church 29 Apr 1688 (Cothren, Vol 1&2. pg 817). His death seems to have occurred in late 1690. On 20 Dec 1690 an agreement respecting his estate was made by his widow Anna Hurd and his surviving children: Joseph, Benjamin, Ebenezer and Sarah Hurd (Jacobus, The American Genealogist, Vol. 30. Tuttle Judson Hurd). In 1691, "Hurd having deceased", the town transferred the mill rights to his heirs, but they "not fulfilling", the rights were awarded 15 Feb 1691/2 to others (Cothren, Vol 1&2. pg 68). John HURD and Anna TUTTLE were married on 10 Dec 1662 in Stratford, Fairfield Co., CT.,, Anna TUTTLE, (daughter of William TUTTLE and Elizabeth) was baptized on 20 Jan 1632 or 1633 in England.

  • The Haden-Darwin-Wright Connection
    1 The Haden-Darwin-Wright Connection (© Phil Tunaley). Introduction There was already a close relationship between the Haden and Wright families even when the original Haden family was based in Wednesbury, West Midlands, Staffordshire. Joseph Wright had painted a portrait of Thomas Haden with Thomas, born Wednesbury 1760, aged between 12 and 16 years and hence placing the year of the painting between 1772.and 1776. ("Portrait of Master Thomas Haden": http://www.artnet.com/artists/joseph-wright-of-derby/portrait-of- master-thomas-haden-YUYoRlyDiZsLjBzl0lWOvA2 ). So Thomas Haden's portrait would have been created 15- 20 years before Joseph Wright painted portraits of Mary Tunaley and the twins Ann and Sarah Haden (born 1788). Indeed the timing (1772-1776) of the painting of Thomas Haden as a boy by Joseph Wright indicate Wright being acquainted not only with the senior members of the Haden family (Thomas's father Joseph (1722-1799) and mother Ann (nee Bunn)) but also, as it transpires, with Thomas’s elder brother Alexander Bunn Haden (1752-1829). The aim of this article is to show how circumstances, some good, some bad, brought the Hadens into contact and later friendship with Erasmus Darwin and the Wright family. Thomas Haden, his father Joseph and elder brother Alexander Bunn Haden Thomas was the third son of Joseph Haden (b. 1722) originally of Old Swinford, Worcestershire and Anne (nee Bunn b. 1733) of Wednesbury, Staffordshire. Joseph’s 1751 marriage to Ann seems to have signalled a permanent move by Joseph to Wednesbury. And, according to records, the Haden-Bunn marriage took place at the then rebuilt (1741) Anglican Church of St.

Wills June 2012 © 2012 Steven T. Wills. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Navy and Marine Corps Opposition to the Goldwtaer Nichols Act of 1986 by STEVEN T. WILLS has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Ingo Traushweizer Assistant Professor of History Howard Dewald Interim Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT WILLS, STEVEN T., M.A., June 2012, History Navy and Marine Corps Opposition to the Goldwater Nichols Act of 1986 Director of Thesis: Ingo Traushweizer The Goldwater Nichols Act of 1986 was the most comprehensive defense reorganization legislation in a generation. It has governed the way the United States has organized, planned, and conducted military operations for the last twenty five years. It passed the Senate and House of Representatives with margins of victory reserved for birthday and holiday resolutions. It is praised throughout the U.S. defense establishment as a universal good. Despite this, it engendered a strong opposition movement organized primarily by Navy Secretary John F. Lehman but also included members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, prominent Senators and Congressman, and President Reagan's Secretary of Defense Casper Weinberger. This essay will examine the forty year background of defense reform movements leading to the Goldwater Nichols Act, the fight from 1982 to 1986 by supporters and opponents of the proposed legislation and its twenty-five year legacy that may not be as positive as the claims made by the Department of Defense suggest.
