Notes

He came across the Atlantic, it is supposed, in the year 1635, as a sailo r with Lion Gardiner, who built and commanded the fort at Saybrook, Ct.

Lion Gardiner, was an Englishman, and by profession an engineer and ha d been in Holland in the service of the Prince of Orange. Gardiner was ha d been engaged by the proprietors of the Connecticut Patent, issued by Ch arles II to Lord Say and Seal, Lord Brooke and others, who were grante d a large tract of territory on the banks of the Connecticut River, to er ect a fortification at its mouth. Gardiner embarked at London in the 'Bac hilor', of 25 tons, on August 11, 1635, with his wife, female servant an d eleven male passengers. After a long and tempestuous voyage, arrived a t Boston on the 28th of November. Gov. Winthrop, however, told that Gardi ner sailed in a 'Norsey Barque', (a fishing vessel of the coast of Norway ), on July 10, 1635. It is supposed that Thomas Hurlbut was one of the el even passengers, but who his parents were or where he was born, we have y et to learn. Yet we may be pretty confident that his birth occurred as ea rly as the year 1610. (the Hurlbut Genealogy speculates that he was a nat ive of Scotland).

Thomas, while at Saybrook, was in an encounter with the Pequot Indians i n 1637, and was wounded by an arrow. This appears in a letter of Lion Gar diner, written in June of 1660, some 23 years after the skirmish with th e Indians, addressed to Robert Chapman and Thomas Hurlbut, detailing inci dents regarding the Pequot War. Capt. Gardiner said that Robert Chapman , Thomas Hurlbut and Major Mason urged him to write the letter, 'and havi ng rummaged and found some old papers then written, it was a great help t o my memory.' The document laid in manuscript until 1833 (173 years) whe n it was printed in Vol 3, 3rd Ser. of the Mass. Historical Society Coll . The following is an extract;

'In the 22d of February, I went out with ten Men and three Dogs Half a M ile from the House (Fort), to burn the weeds, Leaves and Reeds upon the N eck of the Land, because we had felled twenty trees, which we were to rol l to the Waterside to bring home, every Man carrying a Length of Match wi th rimstone-matches with him to kindle the Fire withal. But when we cam e to the small of the Neck, the Weeds burning, I have before this set tw o Sentinels on the small of the Neck, I called to the Men that were burni ng the the Reeds to come away, but they would not until they had burnt u p the rest of their Matches. Presently there starts up four Indians out o f the fiery Reeds, but they ran away, I called too the rest of our Men t o come away out of the Marsh. Then Robert Chapman and Thomas Hurlbut, bei ng Sentinels, called to me, saying there came a Number of Indians out o f the other side of the Marsh. Then I went to stop them, that they shoul d not get to the Woodland; but Thomas Hurlbut cried out to me that some o f the Men did not follow me, for Thomas Rumble and Arthur Branch threw do wn their two Guns and ran away; then the Indians shot two of them that we re in the Reeds, and sought to get between us and Home, but durst not com e before us, but kept us in a Half moon, we retreating and exchanging man y a Shot, so that Thomas Hurlbut was shot almost through the Thigh, Joh n Spencer in the back into his Kidneys, myself into the Thigh, two more s hot dead. But in our Retreat, I kept Hurlbut and Spencer still before us , we defending ourselves with our naked Swords, or else they had taken u s all alive, so that the two sore wounded Men, by our slow Retreat, got h ome with their Guns, when our two sound Men ran away and left their Gun s behind them.' The HULBERT FAMILY Genealogy, compiled by Dorothy Russ Ta ylor, adds this; 'I resolved to let them draw lots which of them should b e hanged (for the articles did hang up in the hall for all to read), an d they (Rumble and Branch) knew they had been published. But at the inter cession of old Mr. Mitchell, Mr.Higgison and Mr.Pell, I did forbear.'

Gardiner does not mention his estimate of the number of the assailants , but Underwood, in his History, say there were 'a hundred or more.'

Thomas Hurlbut was by trade a blacksmith, and after the war with the Peq uots, he located and established himself in business at Wethersfield, Ct. , and was one of the early settlers, as well as the first blacksmith. A s ingle extract from the Colonial Records would seem to indicate that he wa s a good workman and charged a good price for his work: 'March 2, 1642. T ho: Hurlbut for exacting and incouridgeing others to take excessiue Rat s for Worke and Ware is adiudged to pay to the Country 40s.' But this fin e appears to have been 'respited' February 5, 1643. 'Tho: Hurlbut his ffy ne is respited vppon Peter Bassakers tryall to make nayles wth lesse loss e and at as cheape a Rate, then he is to duble the ffyne, otherwise to b e quit.'

He seems to have been a man of good standing in the community. He was Cl erk of the 'Train Band' in 1640, Deputy to the General Court, Grand Juro r and also Constable in 1644. It appears on the records that he receive d various tracts of land in several divisions of the Town, which were rec orded together in 1647. In 1660, the Town of Wethersfield granted Thoma s Hurlbut Lot 39, one of the 'four score acre lots' (in Naubuc, east sid e of the river), which he afterward sold to Thomas Hollister. For his ser vices in the Indian wars, the Assembly voted him a grant of 120 acres o f land on October 12, 1671. It is supposed that Thomas died soon after th e last date, as no evidence appears that the land was set off to him duri ng his life. In that early day of the Colony, land was plenty and cheap , and no attempt appears to have been made to avail himself of the bounty , nor even by his sons. it was not until 1694, on the petition of John Hu rlbut Jr., of middletown, a grandson of the settler and soldier, that i t was set off.

The 'Particular Court' record also shows another side of our emigrant fo refather; ' 1645, Samuel Hale for his mysdemeanor by excesse in drinkein g is ffyned twenty nobles. 'Tho: Hurlbut for the like is ffyned 4. 'Elia s Trotte for accompaning the and drawing wyne wthout liberty is ffyned 4 0 'Will Crosse for houcing wyne sould in his howse wthout lycence is ffyn ed 40.' I would guess it paid for Thomas to have been the Constable the y ear before.

It is told, and the tradition is not an unreasonable to credit, that th e house in Wethersfield, where Miss Harriet Mitchell resided in 1888, sta nds upon the site of the dwelling of the first Hurlbut who lived in the s ettlement.(She was the sixth generation from Thomas) That house, as trad ition gives, had particular attractions for the Indians, whether with th e purpose to inspect the architecture of the edifice, or to get a view o f the owner, for he had been an Indian fighter formerly, it cannot be sai d. But often, when in the village, they were to be seen looking curiousl y in at the windows.(HG)(JH) History of Ancient Wethersfield, vol II, b y Stiles, page 442-4.
