He was at Windsor Plantation (Connecticut) before 1640 (probably 1635 or 1636), removed to Hartford where his first wife died. He married second wife, Ann, widow of Samuel Allen who was buried in Windsor April 28, 1648. This marriage was before September 26, 1653. [Note:] His name does not appear in The Great Migration Begins ... which is a carefully researched account of all immigrants from 1620 thru 1633, but there is a William Hulbird. Are they the same? |
[Note: There is confusion between William Hurlbut and
William Hulbird. The latter appears in The Great Migration Begins
...; the only person that book with a name remotely similar to Hurlbut (it
is also spelled Hulberd and Hullberd in the colonial records). Therefore, if
these are the same person, then the information in the book will be useful; if
they are not, then we can be certain that William Hurlbut did not arrive before
1633.
