A BIOGRAPHY OF WILLIAM HUTCHINSON, by Larry Overmire: William Hutchinson immigrated with his family in 1634 on the "Griffin," settling initially in Boston. Because of the uproar over his wife's religious views, William moved the family to Rhode Island, where, with the help of Roger Williams, he received permission from the Narragansett Indians to homestead on Aquidneck Island. The family flourished. Anne continued to preach. After William died, fearing that Aquidneck would be taken over by Massachusetts, Anne moved the family to the Dutch colony on Long Island in New York. The Dutch had very poor relations with the local Indians. Anne and five of her children were killed in an Indian raid in 1643.

William Hutchinson (August 14, 1586 – 1642) was a prominent merchant and judge in the Massachusetts Bay Colony and one of the founders of Rhode Island.

Hutchinson was born in Alford, Lincolnshire, England. His parents were Edward Hutchinson (1564-1631) and Susanna Wheelright (1564-1645). On August 9, 1612 he married Anne Marbury (1591-1643), the daughter of Rev. Francis Marbury (1555-1611) and Bridget Dryden (1563-1645). They were married in London, where William had become a merchant.

On September 18, 1634 the Hutchinsons, along with eight other family members, arrived in Boston aboard the ship Griffin. They were devout Puritans and wanted to join Rev. John Cotton who had migrated there earlier.

In 1635 Hutchinson was elected a judge and in 1636 he was elected a deputy.

Hutchinson supported his wife Anne during her conflicts with some of the Puritan authorities, including Governor John Winthrop. Anne was imprisoned and she and her followers were banished. Hutchinson went on a fact-finding tour led by John Clarke to Providence Plantations. After consulting with Roger Williams, they decided to settle on Aquidneck Island, which later became Rhode Island and was a part, first, of the Colony of Rhode Island, and eventually, of the state of Rhode Island.

Back in Boston, Hutchinson and the other supporters of his wife signed the Portsmouth Compact on March 7, 1638. Then they moved to Aquidneck and founded the town of Portsmouth on land that they purchased from the local Native Americans.

After the first leader of Portsmouth, William Coddington moved away to found Newport, Hutchinson became the leader of the Portsmouth settlement. In 1640 He was elected assistant to Coddington, who was now the governor of the Colony of Rhode Island. Two years later he died, and his widow moved with some of her surviving children to New York, where she and all but one of the children with her were killed by Native Americans in 1643.

Hutchinson's son Edward was a military captain who died in battle during King Philip's War.

Other children included: Susanna, Richard, Faith, Bridget, Francis, Elizabeth, William, Samuel, Anne, Mary, Katherine, Susanna, and Zuriel.

Sheep Farmer and Textile Merchant marriage to Anne Marbury immigration to USA Abt. 1634 left U.K. aboard the ship Griffin bound for New England religion was Puritan

His daughter Katherine could NOT be the Katherine who married John Walker based on the following information [P Scoggin]:

From: http://www.longislandsurnames.com/genealogy/getperson.php?personID=I0835&tree=Dodge''' Email from D. M. Kenyon Feb 27, 2012

John Walker did not marry Catherine Hutchinson as commonly broadcast on Ancestry.com. His will indicates that his wife's name was "Katherine", but no maiden name is given. The Catherine Hutchinson that died in 1643 was the young, unmarried, childless teenage daughter of Anne Hutchinson of Puritan fame. Catherine was killed with her mother in an indian attack in 1643.

John Walker's wife is currently a historical mystery. '''He registers at the church in Roxbury in 1633 or 1634 as being married to a Katherine. Catherine Hutchinson [born in 1629] would have been five years old at that time.'''

*Note: William Hutchinson was a prominent merchant and judge in the Massachusetts Bay Colony and one of the founders of Rhode Island. William was born August 14, 1586 at Alford, Lincolnshire, England and died in 1642 at Newport, Rhode Island. William, a wealthy sheep farmer and textile merchant, married Anne Marbury on August 9, 1612 at Saint Mary Woolnoth, Lincoln, England. William and Anne made their home in Alford where fourteen of their children were born. (The fifteenth would be born in America.) The Hutchinson family came to New England in the ship Griffin, landing at Boston, September 18, 1634. The family consisted of William's widowed mother, Mrs. Susanna Hutchinson; a younger sister of Anne's, Katherine Marbury, about 24 years old; and William and Anne's eleven children (three died young in Alford). William was made freeman with his sons Richard and Francis on March 4, 1635. William became very active politically. Already elected a deputy to the General Court in May 1635 (representing the approximately one hundred freemen of Boston whose attendance at all meetings of the legislature would have been too cumbersome), he was additionally honored by his Boston neighbors who chose him as Boston selectman, responsible for local problems such as maintenance of roads, prevention of fire, allotment of land (a post to which he would be elected three more times, serving four consecutive six-month terms.) At the same time, the court appointed him appraiser to settle small cases in the so-called particular courts. In consequence of the Antinomian controversy, which resulted in the banishment of his wife, William removed with most of his family in 1638 to Rhode Island. As first treasurer of the new colony, he succeeded William Coddington as Judge (Governor) on the formation in 1639 of the Newport Colony. In 1640, on the union of the two towns, when Coddington was elected Governor, William was chosen one of the Assistants. William died in Newport in 1642. His widow, Anne and her younger children moved to Pelham Bay, New York where a year later, they were massacred by Indians.

William Hutchinson (1586–1641) was a judge (chief magistrate) of the Colony of Portsmouth on the island of Aquidneck, also known as Rhode Island (and later a part of the Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations). Sailing from England to New England with his large family in 1634, he became a merchant in Boston and served as both Deputy to the General Court and selectman. In Boston, his wife, the famed Anne Hutchinson, became embroiled in a theological controversy with the Puritan leaders of the colony, resulting in her banishment in 1638. Hutchinson and 18 others departed with her to form the new settlement of Pocasset on the Narragansett Bay, renamed Portsmouth, one of the original towns in the Rhode Island colony.

In Portsmouth, Hutchinson became treasurer, then, in 1639 when controversy compelled the judge (governor) of the town, William Coddington to relocate and found the town of Newport, Hutchinson became the chief magistrate of Portsmouth, which lasted for less than a year. Hutchinson died shortly after June 1641, after which his widow and many of her younger children moved to New Netherland (later in the Bronx in New York City). Mrs. Hutchinson and all but one of her children perished in a massacre which sprang from tensions between the Dutch and the Indians. William Hutchinson was described by Governor John Winthrop as being mild tempered, somewhat weak, and living within the shadow of his prominent and outspoken wife.

Born into a prominent Lincolnshire family, William Hutchinson was the grandson of John Hutchinson (1515–1565) who had been Sheriff, Alderman, and Mayor of the town of Lincoln, dying in office during his second term as mayor.[1] John's youngest son, Edward (1564–1632), moved to Alford and with his wife, Susanna, had 11 children, the oldest of whom was William, who was baptized 14 August 1586 in Alford.[1]

William Hutchinson grew up in Alford, where he was the warden of his church in 1620 and 1621, and after becoming a merchant in the cloth trade he moved to London.[2] Here he became close to an old acquaintance from Alford, Anne Marbury, the daughter of Francis Marbury and Bridget Dryden, and the couple was married on 9 August 1612 at the Church of Saint Mary Woolnoth on Lombard Street in London.[1][3] Anne's father was a clergyman, school master, and Puritan reformer who was educated at Cambridge.[4]

Hutchinson and his wife raised a large family in Alford, as he prospered in his business. The couple had 14 children in England, one of whom died in infancy, and two of whom died from the plague. The Hutchinsons, particularly Anne, became very enamored with the preaching of the Reverend John Cotton who was the vicar of Saint Botolph's Church in the town of Boston, about 21 miles from Alford.[1] The Hutchinsons made the day-long round trip to Boston whenever they could to hear Cotton preach, but Cotton had strong Puritan sympathies, and when Archbishop William Laud began cracking down on those whose opinions differed from those of the established Anglican church, Cotton was forced into hiding, and then had to flee the country to avoid imprisonment.[1] Mrs. Hutchinson was distraught to lose her mentor, and the Hutchinsons would have sailed with Cotton to New England aboard the ship Griffin in 1633, but Mrs. Hutchinson's 14th pregnancy kept the family from leaving. However, with the intention of following Cotton to New England as soon as they could, the Hutchinsons sent their oldest son, 20-year old Edward, under the care of Cotton.[1] William Hutchinson's youngest brother, also named Edward, was also aboard the same ship with his wife.[1]

In 1634 William Hutchinson, his wife Anne, and his other ten children sailed from England to New England on the Griffin, the same ship that had taken Cotton and their oldest son a year earlier, and the family first resided at Boston where Hutchinson was admitted to the Boston Church on 26 October 1634, and his wife was admitted seven days later.[5] He became a merchant in Boston and took the freeman's oath there in 1635.[6] He was one of the town's Deputies to the Massachusetts Bay General Court from 1635 to 1636, and was also a selectman from 1635 to 1637, attending a selectmen's meeting for the last time in January 1638 as his tenure in Boston was coming to an end.[7]

Hutchinson's wife was described by historian Thomas W. Bicknell as "a pure and excellent woman, to whose person and conduct there attaches no stain."[6] She was helpful to the sick and needy, and gifted in argument and ready speech, but she saw theological doctrines a little differently than the Puritan elders.[6] In late 1636 Governor John Winthrop gave the first warning of an issue that would consume his attention, and that of other Boston leaders, for the next two years. He wrote that Mrs. Hutchinson, "a woman of ready wit and bold spirit," had brought with her two dangerous theological errors, elaborating upon them in his journal.[8] She was holding private meetings at her home, drawing many people from Boston as well as other towns, including many prominent citizens, and entreating them to a religious view that was antithetical to the rigid orthodoxy of the Puritan church.[8] As the situation worsened, Mrs. Hutchinson was put on trial in November 1637, convicted, and banished from the colony along with some of her followers.[8] To put the expulsion into perspective, Bicknell wrote in his 20th century history of Rhode Island:

The real gist of the matter as between the Puritans of the Bay and the men and women whom they persecuted and banished was this, that the former came to the New World to establish a State Church while the latter came for the sake of freer thought in civil and religious concerns. The Boston Puritan had no use for a Baptist, a Quaker, A Churchman, a Roman Catholic, or in fact for any who differed in doctrine from them. Error in religion as they interpreted it was treason to the State. It threatened the solidarity of Puritanism, which as Cotton Mather interpreted it was Puritans only in a Puritan Commonwealth.[6]

— Thomas W. Bicknell, historian

The court order banishing her reads: "Mrs. Anne Hutchinson (the wife of William Hutchinson) being convented for traducing the ministers and their ministry in this country, shee declared volentarily her revelations for her ground, & that shee should bee delivered & the Court ruined, with their posterity & thereupon was banished, & the meanwhile was committed to Mr. Joseph Weld untill the Court shall dispose of her."[9] On 12 March 1638 it was ordered that she must be gone by the end of the month.[10]

On 7 March 1638, before leaving Boston, William Hutchinson and other supporters of his wife signed an instrument, sometimes called the Portsmouth Compact, agreeing to form a non-sectarian government that was Christian in character.[11] The group of signers considered going to New Netherland, but Roger Williams suggested they purchase some land on the Narragansett Bay from the Indians, which they did. They settled on the island of Aquidneck (an island called Rhode Island, whose name was later given to the entire colony and state), and formed the settlement of Pocasset, renamed Portsmouth in 1639. In June 1638 Hutchinson was the treasurer of the town and William Coddington was called judge, the name given to the chief magistrate of the settlement.[7] The following year a disagreement prompted Coddington and a few other leaders to leave Portsmouth and begin a new settlement at the south end of the island called Newport. Hutchinson became the judge (governor) of the Portsmouth settlement from 1639 until 12 March 1640, when Portsmouth united with Newport to become the Colony of Rhode Island, with Coddington elected as governor of the two-town colony, and Hutchinson becoming one of his assistants.[10] In his journal, Governor Winthrop described the 1639 disagreement in Portsmouth, writing, "the people grew very tumultuous and put out Mr. Coddington and the other three magistrates, and chose Mr. William Hutchinson only, a man of very mild temper and weak parts, and wholly guided by his wife, who had been the beginner of all the former troubles in the country and still continued to breed disturbance."[8]

Hutchinson died in Portsmouth shortly after June 1641, after which his widow left Rhode Island to live in the part of New Netherland that later was on the border between the Bronx and Westchester County, New York. Here, as the result of tensions between the Dutch and the Native Americans, she, six of her children, a son-in-law, and as many as seven others (likely servants) were massacred by Native Americans in late summer 1643.[3][10]

William and Anne Hutchinson had 15 children, all but the last one being born in England. The oldest child, Edward, was a military captain who died from wounds suffered at the battle known as Wheeler's Surprise during King Philip's War.[12] The fourth child, Faith, married Thomas Savage, a Boston soldier and merchant, and the fifth child, Bridget, married John Sanford who succeeded William Coddington as Governor of (the two towns of) Rhode Island following the repeal of the Coddington Commission.[13][14] Their 14th child, Susanna was the only survivor of the Indian attack that killed her mother and six of her siblings, and was taken captive for several years.[15] Hutchinson's sister Mary was the wife of the Reverend John Wheelwright, another banished minister who founded Exeter, New Hampshire.[16] Prominent descendants of William and Anne Hutchinston include U.S. Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush.[17]

This person was never a Reverend for any church. His father-in-law was. Please read The Great Migration attached in Sources and Memories so we can keep this page accurate. The Gulielmi comes in from the church records using Latin but no one will recognize the historical person because all of his other records are under William.

Note 1 for William Hutchinson Do Not COMBINE/MERGE to or with any other record.

This is the only valid record for William Hutchinson. Any other record that seems to be for William Hutchinson has been seriously messed up by well meaning people in Family Tree. Prior to Family Tree, hundreds or probably thousands of records were Combined only because they looked like William Harrison, when they were really duplicate records for William Hutchinson and there were too many such records for newFamilySearch. nFS when combining a record actually kept both the base record and the record being Combined which created successively larger records. In FamilyTree, the information in the record being merged in simply overlays the existing record with selected information from the record being merged in.

If you have corrections or additional information, please contact the Contributor of this note by the link provided and discuss the changes before making those corrections/changes/additions. Be ready to present sources. When we agree that your information is valid, I will then ask you to make the changes so that your Contributor name is on your changes. Several people including myself have watches on this person and will not be at all shy about removing information that does not include sources that are readily available. There are many items returned when you Google this person's spouse, Anne Marbury. Many of those sites are quite correct, but there are errors and those errors have been picked up and repeated then in other sites.

The information contained in this record came from my grandmother, a professional genealogist in the period 1890 to about 1950. Despite not having FamilyTree or FamilySearch or computers, her information is and was quite accurate and she left a genealogical record of over 25,000 records and probably another 15,000 to 20,000 people that are probably not ancestors but did have a last name that might be related but not closely at all.

GEDCOM Note

Per Nora Callahan, they resided in Alfo ===

Per Nora Callahan, they resided in Alford until 1634 when they emigrated to New England, residing first in Boston, Massachusetts. After 1637, when his wife was excommunicated and banished, they removed to Newport, Rhode Island. Anne was the "leader" of the Antimonian Controversy and much is written of her in contemporary, as well as colonial, history. William died about 1642. His widow moved to Pelham Bay, New York, and along with other family members was massacred by the Indians in August or September, 1643.

Per the Clark-King Ancestry (scanned and OCRed by David C. Blackwell), the best and truest account of William and Anne Hutchinson was written by John Denison Champlin, Esq., and, as it cannot be improved upon, it is printed verbatim herewith. "William and Anne Hutchinson came to New England in the ship 'Griffin,' landing at Boston, September 18, 1634. The family consisted of his widowed mother, Mrs. Susanna Hutchinson; a younger sister of Mrs. Anne Hutchinson, Catherine Marbury, about twenty four years old, and William and Anne's ten children. William was made free with his two sons Richard and Francis, March 4, 1635, and he was a Representative in the General Court in May, 1635. In consequence of the Antonomian controversy which resulted in the banishment of Mrs. Hutchinson, he removed to Rhode Island. At first treasurer of the new colony, he succeeded Coddington as judge (governor) on the formation in 1639 of the Newport Colony. In 1640, on the union of the two towns, when Coddington was elected governor, William Hutchinson was chosen one of the assistants. He died in Newport in 1642, and his widow removed soon after, with part of her family, to Eastchester, New York, where she met her fate the following summer in an Indian insurrection."

Life Sketch

WILLIAM HUTCHINSON was born 14 August 1586, at Alford, Lincolnshire, England, to Edward Hutchinson (1564-1613) and Susanna Unknown (1564-1648.) He married Anne Marbury, 9 August 1612, at London, Middlesex, England. William was a merchant in London. In the United States he was a sheep farmer, textile merchant, and religious. William Hutchinson immigrated with his family in 1634 on the Griffin, settling initially in Boston. They arrived at Boston, 18 September 1634.They believed in and followed Rev. John Cotton. They brought all their children except Edward, their oldest, who came with Cotton the former year, and Mary who came with Rev. John Wheelwright two years later. They first lived at Alford, Lincoln County, 25 miles from Boston. They were followers of Rev. John Cotton. He was freeman 4 Mar. 1635, and his two sons Richard and Francis were admitted the same day. He was a representative May 1635. They were members of the Puritan Church at this time.

Because of the uproar over his wife's religious views, William moved the family to Rhode Island, in 1638, where, with the help of Roger Williams, he received permission from the Narragansett Indians to homestead on Aquidneck Island. The family flourished. Anne continued to preach. They made a new civil compact there, not much unlike that of Massachusetts. He was an assistant in the government and died in 1642. After William died, fearing that Aquidneck would be taken over by Massachusetts, Anne moved the family to the Dutch colony on Long Island in New York. The Dutch had very poor relations with the local Indians. Anne and five of her children were killed in an Indian raid in 1643. Hutchinson's son Edward was a military captain who died in battle during King Philip's War. William Hutchinson died about 1642, age 55, at Newport, Newport, Rhode Island. ANNE MARBURY Anne Hutchinson _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ William Hutchinson was a prominent merchant and judge in the Massachusetts Bay Colony and one of the founders of Rhode Island.

William was born August 14, 1586 at Alford, Lincolnshire, England and died in 1642 at Newport, Rhode Island. William, a wealthy sheep farmer and textile merchant, married Anne Marbury on August 9, 1612 at Saint Mary Woolnoth, Lincoln, England. William and Anne made their home in Alford where fourteen of their children were born. (The fifteenth would be born in America.)

The Hutchinson family came to New England in the ship Griffin, landing at Boston, September 18, 1634. The family consisted of William's widowed mother, Mrs. Susanna Hutchinson; a younger sister of Anne's, Katherine Marbury, about 24 years old; and William and Anne's eleven children (three died young in Alford). William was made freeman with his sons Richard and Francis on March 4, 1635.

William became very active politically. Already elected a deputy to the General Court in May 1635 (representing the approximately one hundred freemen of Boston whose attendance at all meetings of the legislature would have been too cumbersome), he was additionally honored by his Boston neighbors who chose him as Boston selectman, responsible for local problems such as maintenance of roads, prevention of fire, allotment of land (a post to which he would be elected three more times, serving four consecutive six-month terms.) At the same time, the court appointed him appraiser to settle small cases in the so-called particular courts.

In consequence of the Antinomian controversy, which resulted in the banishment of his wife, William removed with most of his family in 1638 to Rhode Island. As first treasurer of the new colony, he succeeded William Coddington as Judge (Governor) on the formation in 1639 of the Newport Colony. In 1640, on the union of the two towns, when Coddington was elected Governor, William was chosen one of the Assistants.

William died in Newport in 1642. His widow, Anne and her younger children moved to Pelham Bay, New York where a year later, they were massacred by Indians.
