William Phelps originated in Crewkerne, Somersetshire, England. With his first wife he had 4 children in England. With his second wife Ann Dover, he had 4 children in England and 3 children in New England. He arrived on the "Mary & John" in 1630 with his wife Ann and 4 of his English children. He originally settled in Dorchester,
then in 1635 moved to Windsor.

William died in Windsor 14 July 1672. Ann Dover died 30 Aug 1689 in Windsor.

In 1990 Myrtle S Hyde was able to find baptism records of William's children in Crewkerne.
See TAG 65:161-66 for demonstration of origination in Crewkerne, as opposed to Tewkesbury where the Phelps book had William originating from.

The best treatment on William Phelps appear in TAG 65:161-165 by Myrtle Stevens Hyde and "The Great Migration Begins' Series by Robert Charles Anderson.

The Phelps Family DNA site at http://www.phelpsdna.com/ has determined that Williams Phelps and George Phelps not only are not brothers as was previously assumed, but are not biologically related in genealogical time.

William Phelps (c. 1599 - July 14, 1672) was a Puritan Englishman who immigrated in 1630 to the American Colonies. He was one of the founders of both Dorchester, Massachusetts and Windsor, Connecticut, foreman of the first grand jury in New England, served most of his life in early colonial government, and played a key role in establishing the first democratic town government in the American colonies. Noted historian Henry Reed Stiles said Phelps "was one of the most prominent and highly respected men in the colony."

Origins

William is not from Tewksbury, despite profiles from the early 1900s to the contrary. His second marriage and children were found in the records at Crewkerne, and published in 1990.[13]

The origins of William Phelps before the baptism of his son William at Crewkerne on 9 Sep. 1618, and those of the emigrants, Richard and George Phelps have stimulated much interest. The closest that anyone has so far come to Crewkerne is a family named Phelps alias Comer of Broadwindsor (Dorset) some six miles to the south. Earlier Robin Bush established that William Phelps was a clothier at Crewkerne (vol. 25, p. 50-51) and he found some Phelps entries in the parish of Merriott which immediately adjoins Crewkerne to the north-east. There was a small-scale cloth industry recorded at Merriott between about 1575 and 1697 (Victoria History of Somerset, vol. iv, p. 57), which would make the place ideal for the origin of William. No one seems to have considered Merritt before because the parish registers dod not survive before 1646. There are, however, a few earlier Bishop's Transcripts and a series of manor court books of the late 16th and early 17th century (sadly incomplete)......Although these abstracts do not provide proof positive of the origins of the Phelps emigrants, the forenames of William and Richard both occur in the records............[14]

William Phelps came to Dorchester, MA, from Crewkerne, Somerset, on the "Mary & John" in 1630 with his second wife and five children. Robin Bush found the following material on Willliam Phelps in Engand, showing he had a business deal with Benjamin Bale, Sr. of Crewkerne..... The Crewkerne Grammar School accounts (DD/CSG 3/1) included a useful reference to William Phelps. In the accounts for the year ending 9 April 1627 an item was included that William Phelps, 'clothier', was to hold Chubbes tenement for nine years from All Saints last (1 Nov. 1626) for the rent of 8 pounds, paid quarterly, reserving all trees to the feoffees. Under the year ending 5 April 1630 was entered an agreement by which Thomas & Benjamin, sons of Mr. James Bale, were to take over the unexpired term which William Phelps held in Chubs tenement, confirming that it was around that time that he presumably left for New England.[15]

Since the Phelps Genealogy was published in 1899, it was widely accepted that William Phelps was baptized 19 Aug. 1599 at Tewkesbury, Goucestershire, son of William and Dorothy Phelps. It was also claimed he had a brother, George (b. @ 1605) who also came to New England. William Phelps came on the "Mary & John" in 1630, with people from the West Country (Somerset, Dorset, and Devon). Tewkesbury is not in this area, but the claim that this was his home was not questioned until October 1982 , when Myrtle Stevens Hyde had an article published in TAG, Vol. 58, 1982. She presented evidence that the William Phelps (bpt. 1599) was still in Tewksbury in 1637, when he was an overseer of the will of his uncle, Edward Phelps.

The wives of William Phelps have also been a mystery. Up until 1987 it was believed William Phelps had two wives, (1) Elizabeth _____ (History of Ancient Windsor, p. 563), and (2) Mary Dover, a.1638. In 1987, Joan Peel of Dartmouth, Devon, England found the marriage of an ANN DOVER to a William Phelps, 1626 in Crewkerne and this was printed in Vol. 7, p. 100 of this series. This suggested that William Phelps had three wives.

There is a marriage record of a William Phelps and an Ann Law in 1618 (no day or month) in Broadwindsor, Dorset (5 m. S of Crewkerne). If this took place in January this would be 8 months before the first known child was baptized on 8 Sept. 1618. However, another TAG article appeared in July 1990, p. 161-166, by Myrtle Stevens Hyde. She found additional Phelps entries in the Crewkerne records including the burial of a Mary, 'wife of William Phelps" on 13 Aug. 1626. She concluded this was his first wife. He married Ann Dover three months and one day later. Finally, when Hyde could not find a death for Ann (Dover) Phelps, nor a marriage record for William Phelps and Mary Dover, she concluded that the latter never existed. She surmised that the names of the first two wives, Mary and Ann somehow became Mary Dover."[16]

Life in New England

William arrived in Dorchester aboard the Mary and John in 1630 and was admitted as a freeman on 18 May 1631. He moved from Dorchester to Windsor in the winter of 1635, and was second on the list of men who came from Dorchester church to Windsor with Mr. Warham. He appears in town records in various positions in both Dorchester and Windsor from the early 1630s until the late 1650s:
Deputy for Dorchester to Massachusetts Bay General Court, 9 May 1632, 6 May 1635 [ MBCR 1:95, 145].

Committee to organize expedition against Pequots, 26 August 1639 [ CCCR 1:32].
War Committee (Windsor), May 1653, October 1654 [ CT Civil List 43]. [17]

William lived in Windsor, three-quarters of a mile northwest of Broad Street on the road to Poquonock.[18] "He purchased land from Sehat, an Indian sachem, of Windsor, for four overcoats and he sold some of his land at 12 pence per acre. Not being able to prove title and payment, he paid a second time, the legal tender being wampum."[19]

He was granted a lot in (Windsor) 1635, 100 ft. wide, next to Bray Rossiter, west of the Rivulet. This land was flooded in 1638-9, and he moved to higher ground, above the First Meadow, the most northerly lot on the west side of the Rivulet. He had purchased ths land from a sachem in 1635. This land later passed to his son, Timothy. He had a "plantation lot" east of the Connecticut River, 560 ft. wide, south of George Hull and north of Thomas Holcomb. In 1635 he was one of the eight men, including Roger Ludlow, chosen by the Court of Massachusetts, to govern the new Connecticut colony for the first year. In 1641, the General Court appointed he and Mr. Webster of Hartford, to recommend how "lyers" were to be punished. After this, the court punished "lyers" with fines or "body correction." He was a Magistrate, 1639-1643 and 1656-1662. He died at age 73 and was survived by his second wife and children, William, Jr. (age 52) of Windsor, husband of Sarah Pinney, Nathaniel (age 45) of Northampton, Mass., husband of widow, Elizabeth Copley, Joseph (age 43) of Simsbury, husband of Hannah Newton, Timothy (age 33) of Windsor, husband of Mary Griswold and Mary (age 28) wife of Thomas Barber, Jr. of Simsbury.[20]

This article provides evidence that the William Phelps who was baptized in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire 19 Aug 1599, presented in the book The Phelps Family of America, and their English Ancestors (1899) by Oliver Seymour Phelps and Andrew T. Servin as identical with the immigrant William Phelps, was unlikely to be the immigrant. Three reasons are provided:
- William the immigrant was likely born earlier than 1599, based on the birth of his eldest son.
- A William Phelps (likely the William baptized Aug 1599) had a son Richard christened in Tewkesbury 26 Dec. 1619. The immigrant did not have a known son Richard.
- The mother of the William Phelps baptized Aug 1599 named her brother-in-law Edward Phelps in her will. He in turn, in his 1636 will (when he was of Tewkesbury), 'appointed as an overseer, William Phelps, almost undoubtedly his nephew, and certainly not the William living in far away New England.'

Windsor was the first permanent English settlement in Connecticut. Local indians granted Plymouth settlers land at the confluence of the Farmington River and the west side of the Connecticut River, and Plymouth settlers (including Jonathan Brewster, son of William) built a trading post in 1633. But the bulk of the settlement came in 1635, when 60 or more people led by Reverend Warham arrived, having trekked overland from Dorchester, Massachusetts. Most had arrived in the New World five years earlier on the ship "Mary and John" from Plymouth, England. The settlement was first called Dorchester, and was renamed Windsor in 1637.

Origins

The origin of Edward Griswold was discovered and documented by Genevieve Tylee Kiepura in the 1963 TAG article Griswold Ancestry in England, and presented again in the Griswold Family Association of America's 1999 publication, The Griswold Family: 12 Generations in England. The research found that Edward was the son of George Griswold by his first wife Dousabel (probably Leigh). See the Griswold Family publication for an explanation of Edward's relatedness to other colonial New England Griswolds.

[edit]

Life in New England

Came with Rev. Mr. HUIT from England; was in Windsor 1639; removed to Killingworth, Connecticut, called then "Kenilworth," presumably in honor of his native place. Windsor granted him twenty-nine acres, bound south and east by the brook, east by river and Indian Reservation (Indian Neck). He removed with the first settlers to Hamonoscett; George and Joseph had the homestead. In 1674, he was granted two hundred acres of land at the north end of Lyme.

Very active in the early community, serving as:
first deacon of the church
first delegate to the General Court
Justice of the Peace in Windsor
Deputy from Windsor 1658-1662
enrolled as Deputy in 1667
Deputy for Killingworth in 1678
nominated for assistant and as commissioner
representative of Killingworth in every court 1678-1689 (during which he was repeatedly made Commissioner)
committee of the County Court to see what could be done toward a Latin school at New London for the County New London (1678)

Margaret - d. Aug. 23, 1670, Killingworth (now Clinton), Middlesex Co., CT. Her gravestone in the Congregational Church Cemetery is engraved 'M. G. 1670'. Surname not known. Genevieve Tylee Kiepura writes in "Griswold Ancestry in England" (The American Genealogist 39:176-180) that "Edward GRISWOLD m. Margaret BLENCOW of Marston St. Lawrence, co. Northampton, dau of John BLENCOW and his wife Mary WALLISON." However, in "Note on the Ancestry of the Griswolds of Connecticut" (The American Genealogist 40:43-44), John G. Hunt conclusively shows that the Edward GRISWOLD who married Margaret BLENCOW is not the immigrant to CT, and Genevieve Tylee Kiepura concurs. The Griswold Family Association identifies the husband of Margaret BLENCOW as Edward GRESWOLD (1594-1633) son of Thomas GRESWOLD and Elizabeth SHUCKBURGH - this Edward being father of the American immigrant Michael GRISWOLD of Wethersfield, CT.

Second marriage

'George married second (2) Honora (Pawley?) about 1616, apparently in connection with his purchase of a cottage and garden in Kenilworth from Hugh Underhill and Lettice, his sister. Honora was probably a connection of the Underhill's and possibly their (Hugh and Lettice) mother. Their father, (Honora's first husband) John Underhill had died in Holland in 1608 . No record of Honora has been discovered until her remarriage at the Klooster Kerk at the Hague on 28 Nov 1628 to Dirck Thomasen so she may have returned to Kenilworth during the 1609 -1621 truce, after her husband died.'
