Assembly of CT 1637; magistrate 1643; resided in Boston 1630.
9th ggf of Gordon Fisher
"XV. Henry Wolcott (the emigrant), who conveyed the manor-house to his
son Henry." (Somerby's list, Boardman p 312-4. Boardman says, p 312:
"Through the researches of Mr. Somerby, of Boston, in the *Herald's*
office, among the subsidy rolls, wills, and parish records of England, the
genealogy of Henry Wolcott, Esquire (the emigrant), has been traced
through fifteen generations. back to Sir John Wolcott, knight, as
follows:". Each entry in this list has here been placed in its
appropriate place in the tree, with its corresponding Roman numeral.
"HENRY WOLCOTT, son of John Wolcott of Tolland, England, and descended
from an ancient family of position and wealth, was baptized December 6,
1578, in the Parish of Lydiard St. Laurence. [Footnote: Authorities on
the Wolcott family are *The Wolcott Memorial* and Stiles's *History of
Windsor*.] He removed to New England with his wife and several children,
in March, 1630. He was one of the first twenty-four freemen of
Dorchester, Mass., and received grants of land there as early as April,
1633, and probably before; and was Selectman in 1634. He was one of those
most interested in the Connecticut settlement, and removed to Windsor in
1636, as one of the original proprietors. In the year following he took
an active part in the earliest legistlative proceedings of the new Colony;
was elected a Magistrate in 1643, and continued to hold this office until
his death, May 30, 1655. Mr. Stiles, the historian of Windsor, says of
him:--- "He was probably, after the pastor, the most distinguished man in
Windsor." (P) In speaking of the life and public services of Henry
Wolcott, Mr. Hollister, in his *History of Connecticut*, says:--- "In the
78th year of his age, but with a judgment unclouded, and his usefulness
unimpaired, the venerable Henry Wolcott, one of the principal magistrates
and advisers of the colony, quickly followed his comrade (Haynes) to the
grave. I cannot help making a brief mention of him, and yet were I to
speak at any considerable length of all the bright examples of patriotism
and exalted worth that have borne the name of Wolcott in Connecticut, I
should find this work extending itself beyond the limits that I have
marked out for it." (P) "Henry Wolcott, Esquire, ther ancestor of all the
Wolcotts of this State, was of a very ancient family, and the owner of a
large estate in Somersetshire. He was born in Tolland, on the 6th of
December, 1578, and was the son and heir of John Wolcott of Galdon Manor.
The manor-house is still standing, and is of very great antiquity and
extent. It was originally a splendid mansion, designed as well for the
purposes of defense against the excesses of a lawless age, as for a
permanent family residence. It is still richly ornamented with carved
work, and if left to itself unassailed by the hand of violence, it will
stand for ages. The familiar motto of the family arms, borrowed from the
Roman poet, is still to be seen upon the walls of the manor-house, its
bold words informing us that the family who have adopted it as their text
of life were "accustomed to swear in the words of no master." It is alike
in keeping with the independent spirit of an English gentleman of the
middle ages, and with that of a Puritan of the 17th century who spurned
the dictation of ecclesiastical dominion." (P) "In his early life Henry
Wolcott lived after the manner of the landed gentry, at an era when the
term "country squire" was synonymous with whatever was bold, athletic, and
hardy in the steeplechasing, hospitable days of "merry England." But as
the years stole on, and the principles of the Reformation, making little
progress at first, began to invade not only the wrestling-ring of the
yeoman and the counting-room of the merchant, but the hall of the
county-gentleman, Wolcott, among others, was led to direct his thoughts to
more serious topics than the pastimes that had engrossed his earlier
manhood. While meditations respecting a future state of being occupied
his mind, a religious teacher, Mr. Edward Elton, became his guide, and led
him to that clear understanding of the doctrines of Christianity, and
those firm convictions of its truth, that remained with him to the day of
his death. Of an ardent temperament and lively sensibilities, and seeing
that much needed to be reformed in the severities practiced upon so many
of the best subjects of the realm, he soon became identified with the
Puritan party, sold a large estate in lands, including the manor-house,
for which he received about eight thousand pounds sterling, probably much
less than its value, and made preparations to spend the remainder of his
days in America. In 1628 he visited New England to examine the country,
and returned. His sympathetic nature could not fail to attach itself
inseparably to the self-accusing, though charitable, Wareham, and he
sailed with him for the new world in the same ship, and arrived in
Massachusetts in May, 1630. Roger Ludlow was of the same party. Wolcott
remained in Dorcherster until 1636, when he removed to Windsor upon the
Connecticut river. He was, as most of our best inhabitants were, a
planter, and was the principal one in Windsor. He was a member of the
General Court of Connecticut in 1639." (P) "In 1643 he was chosen into
the magistract, and continued to be one of its most safe and immovable
pillars till his death in 1655. His monument of imperishable sandstone,
built by the same hands that fashioned the one that stands over the
Fenwick tomb at Saybrook, has always been a shrine to tempt towards it the
feet of his numerous descendants, who have piously guarded it and lovingly
adorned it for two hundred years. Time has spared, and the gray moss not
obliterated, the quaint and simple epitaph, whose plain lettering tells us
that it is the resting place of "Henry Wolcott, some time a magistrate of
this jurisdiction."
--- William F. J. Boardman, *The Ancestry of William Francis Joseph
Boardman, Hartford, Connecticut*, 1906, p 308-311. Boardman lists the
children of Henry Wolcott and Elizabeth Saunders as follows (p 312): "I.
John, bap. Oct. 1, 1607; d. without issue in Eng. after 1631 and before
1655. II. Anna, m. Oct. 16, 1646, Matthew Griswold of Windsor and

"HENRY WOLCOTT (1636), from Dorchester, had a lot granted to him ten rods
wide. His children were born in England. Both himself and wife died,
1655. Of his sons, Henry had a lot granted to him twelve rods wide. He
married Sarah, daughter of Thomas Newberry, 1641, and had three sons and
two daughters. After the death of his brother Christopher he had his
father's homestead. He died, 1680. Christopher had a lot granted to him
six rods wide. He had no family, and died, 1662. His brother Simon had
his place. George removed to Wethersfield. Simon married first a
daughter of Aaron Cook in 1657. She died a month after, and he married
Martha Pitkin, "late from England." 1661. He had three sons and three
daughters. He lived first on the richard Whitehead place; second, on his
brother Christopher's place. He removed to Simsbury previous to King
Philip's War, and he then removed to the east side of the Great River."
--- Jabez H Hayden, "Early Windsor Families," in *THe Memorial History
of Hartford County, Connecticut, 1633-1884, ed J Hammond Trumbull, v. 2,
1886, p 560
"The register of the parish of *Lidiard St. Lwrence*, adjoining that of
Tolland, contains the following: "HENRY, ye sonne of John Wolcott, was
baptized the VI of December, 1578"; and "HENRY Wolcott & Elizabeth
Saunders [of Lydiard St. Laurence, b. 1584], were married 19 January,
1606." (P) Henry Wolcott, whose m. and bp. are thus recorded, was the
emigrant to Windsor, Conn. As the second son of John Wolcott, of Galdon
Manor, Tolland, Co. Somerset, Eng., he held a fair position among the
landed gentry, and an estate which placed him in affluent circumstances.
By the decease of his elder bro. Christopher, intestate, 1639, the family
estate, including the manor-house, mill, etc., also came into his
possession after his removal to America. The earlier portion of his life
was passed in the quiet pursuit of a country squire's duties and
responsibilities: but, becoming converted under the teaching of the Rev.
John Elton, he soon found himself closely identified with the Puritan
party in the religious and political revolution which then convulsed
England. America presented to him, as to hundreds of others like-minded,
the only asylum where civil and religious freedom could be found; and,
though then past 52 years of age, and with children of an age when they
most needed the social and educational advantages afforded in their native
land, --- to emigrate to a new home beyond the ocean. Taking their three
sons, and leaving them behind them for a time two daughters and their
youngest son (ae. 5), they joined the Warham and Maverick emigration of
1630, on the 19th of October in which yr. we find Henry Wolcott's name as
one of the first list of freemen of Boston. He rem. from Dorchester to W.
in 1635; in 1637 was elected a member of the lower house of the first
Gen'l Assembly of Conn.; in 1640 stands first in a list of the inhabitants
of W.; in 1643 was elected to the House of Magistrates (the present
Senate) of Conn., and was annually re-elected during life, and was
probably, after the pastor, the most distinguished citizen of W.; the
younger ch. who had been left behind, rejoined the family between 1631 and
1641. He d. May, 1655; his wid. d. on July 5, same year. His estate was
inventoried at #764 [pounds], 8s., 10d., not a large sum for one who is
known to have sold about #8,000 worth of estate in Eng. preparatory to
removing to America, and illustrating the remark of the historian
Trumbull, that "many of the adventurers expended more, in making
settlements in Conn., than all the lands and buildings were worth, after
all the improvements which they had made upon them." [Hist. Conn., i, 117]
Mrs. Wolcott wa adm. to W. Ch. Apl., 1640. ... In the ancient "Family
Chronologie" it is recorded of Henry Wolcott and his wife, that "these
both dyed in hope and Ly buried under one Tomb in Windsor." Ch.: 1.

One of the First Settlers of Windsor, Connecticut*, Rochester NY (The
Genesee Press) 1912
From same, p 16: "The old "Famely Chronologie, 1691," has this entry
respecting the parents, Henry and Elizabeth Wolcott: "This happie pair
were married About ye year 1606. He came to New England about the year
1628, and in the year 1630 brought over his family, to avoid the
persecution of those times against dissenters." There follows a quotation
from Macaulay's History of England, vol. I, p 69, 71: "Every corner of
the nation was subjected to a constant and minute inspection. Every
little congregation of separatists was tracked out and broken up. Even
the devotions of private families could not escape the vigilance of spies.
And the tribunals afforded no protection to the subjects against the
civil and ecclesiastical tyranny of that period. ..... This was the
conjuncture at which the liberties of England were in the greatest peril.
The opponents of the government began to despair of the destiny of their
country; and many looked to the American wilderness as the only asylum in
which they could enjoy civil and spiritual freedom. There a few resolute
Puritans, who, in the cause of their religion, feared neither the rage of
the ocean nor the hardships of uncivilized life; neither the fangs of
savage beasts nor the tomahawks of more savage men, --- built, amidst the
primeval forest, villages which are now great and opulent cities, but
which have, through every change, retained some trace of the character
derived from their founders. The government regarded these infant
colonies with aversion, and attempted violently to stop the stream of
emigration, but could not prevent the population of New England from being
largely recruited by stout-hearted and God-fearing men from every part of
old England." Chandler Wolcott continues (p 16-18): "It was at this
juncture that HENRY WOLCOTT left England; and no one will question his
title to the character of "a resolute Puritan, --- a stout-hearted and
God-fearing man." He was not an obscure adventurer, but held a fair
position among the gentry in England, possessing an estate which yielded
him a fair income, and his property was freely devoted to the service of
the expedition which he accompanied. ..... The company of which they [he,
his wife, and children Henry, George and Christopher --- 3 children were
left behind temporarily] were members consisted of one hundred and forty
persons; and the historian of Connecticut makes the following mention of
them:" Here Chandler Wolcott quotes from Trumbull, *Hist. Conn.*, 1.23:
"In one of the first ships which arrived this year [1630] came over the
Rev. Mr. John Warham, Mr. John Maverick, Mr. Rossiter, Mr. Ludlow, Mr.
Henry Wolcott, and others of Mr. warham's church and congregation, who
first settled the town of Windsor, in Connecticut. Mr. Rossiter and Mr.
Ludlow, were magistrates. Mr. Wolcott had a fine estate, and was a man of
superior abilities. This was an honorable company. Mr. Warham had been a
famous minister in Exeter, the capital of the county of Devonshire. The
people who came with him were from the three counties of Devonshire,
Dorsetshire, and Somersetshire." Chandler Wolcott continues (p 18):
"They sailed from Plymouth, in England, on the 20th of March, 1630, in the
ship *Mary and John*, of four hundred tons burden, Captain Squeb, master.
B4efore their embarkation, after their passage had been engaged, they were
allowed the privilege of organizing themselves into an independent church.
This is now the First Church in Windsor, --- the oldest in the State of
Connecticut. The Barnstable and Plymouth churches, in Massachusetts, had
been organized in the same way; and these three, as far as we know, are
the only New England churches which had a trans-atlantic origin. (P) They
arrived at Nantasket on the Lord's Day, May 30th, 1630, after a voyage of
two months and ten days, and landed the next day."
