1. | Rev Thomas HOOKER was born about 1586 in England; died on 7 Jul 1647 in Hartford, Hartford Co., Connecticut; was buried in Ancient Burying Ground, Hartford, Hartford Co., Connecticut. Notes:
Name:
Rev. Thomas Hooker, son of Thomas Hooker, born in England, about 1586, he entered Emanuel College, Cambridge in 1604. he received the degree of B.A. in 1608, the degree of M.A. in 1611, and entering upon a divinity course, he was elected a Fellow of the College. He left the College before completing the first course and receiving the degree of B.D. There are many reasons for supposing that he went from the college direct to Chelmsford and remained there until being silenced, arrested and placed under bonds to appear before the Ecclesiastical Court; he fled to Holland. Came to new England on ship "Griffin" 1633.
The name of his first wife is unknown and nothing of the parentage of his second wife, whose name was Susanna.
His second wife survived him, and though nothing is positively known about her, there are many reasons for believing that in later years she became the wife of Elder William Goodwin and died at Farmington, Conn.
