  • Notes 
    • He was a follower of the Rev. Hooker, and followed Hooker to Connecticut, where he was a founder of Hartford (his name appears on the founder's monument in the old cemetery at Gold and Main Streets). Some sources have said that William was a cousin (unspecified degree) of Ann Hyde, the wife of James II of England while he was Duke of York. Ann was the mother of Queens Ann and Mary of England.
      He was chosen surveyor of Highways in Hartford, 1641. He moved to Saybrook, then to Norwich in about 1660.
