    Notes:

    Name:
    Joseph Northrup, immigrant from England, and perhaps from Yorkshire. He was one of "Eaton and Davenport's Company, of good character and fortune," who came from England in 1637 in the ships Hector and Martin. They landed in Boston July 26, 1637, and settled at New Haven in Apr., 1638. They were mostly from Yorkshire, hertfordshire, and Kent. Members of this company, and of Sir Richard Saltonstall's Company, removed to and settled Milford, Conn., and the "free planters of the town; were enrolled Nov. 30, 1639; but Joseph, not then being in church following, his name (with others) appears in the list immediately after the free planters. The surname NORTHRUP was spelled as here given in the earliest records and inscriptions on tombstones 'rup' sometimes 'rupp', and occasionally 'roop', and more often 'rop', although this last termination was not common at an early period. Joseph, his s. Joseph and his s., James, Joseph, and Moses, and most of their descendants, spelled the name "Northrup'. Northrop, however, was the common form in England.

    January 9, 1642, Joseph united with The First Church in Milford, He married Mary, daughter of Francis Norton, who came to Milford from Wethersfield with the Rev. Peter Prudden and his party. Joseph died Sept. 11, 1669. His will was dated Sept. 1, 1669. It mentions of his children only Joseph, Samuel, Jeremiah, and John. Codicil to his will says, "My mother shall have a living in my house as long as she lives" - perhaps meaning his 'wife's mother, Mrs. Norton. His wife survived him, and made her will Jan. 24, 1683; mentions Joseph, Samuel, Jeremiah (omits John, who probably was dead), Zophar, Daniel, William, and Mary ---the latter two being in their minority --also her mother Norton. Inventory of her estate dated Feb. 28, 1683.
