New
Haven Colony
It
also appears, that New Haven, or their
confederates, purchased and settled Yennycock, Southhold, on Long
Island. Mr. John Youngs, who had been minister at Hingham
in England,
came over, with a considerable part of his church, and here fixed his
residence. He gathered his church anew, on the 21st of October, and the
planters united themselves with New
Haven. However, they soon departed from the rule of
appointing none to office, or of admitting none to the freeman, but members
of the church. New Haven
insisted on this as a fundamental article of their constitution. They were,
therefore, for a number of years, oblidged to conform to this law of the
jurisdiction. Some of the principal men were the Reverend Mr. Youngs, Mr.
William Wells, Mr. Barnabas Horton, Thomas Mapes, John Tuthill and Mathias
Corwin.
Laws
were enacted, both by Connecticut and New
Haven, prohibiting all purchases of the Indians, by
private persons, or companies, without the consent of their respective
general courts. These were to authorize and direct the manner of every
purchase.
The
General Court, at New Haven, this year, made a grant of Totoket to Mr. Samuel
eaton, brother of governor Eaton, upon condition of his procuring a number of
his froends, from England, to make a settlement in that tract of country.
At
this court it was decreed, that the plantation at Quinnipiack should be
called New Haven.
At
the general election, April 6, 1641, at Hartford,
John Haynes, Esq. was chosen governor, and George Wyllys, Esq. deputy
governor.
