Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Letters of John Winthrop: From His Embarkation for New England in 1630, With the Chapter and Company of the Massachusetts Bay, to His Death in 1649 I must not omit to acknowledge my indebtedness to Charles Deane, Esq., A.M., of Cambridge; to the Rev. Chandler Robbins, D.D., of Boston; to the Rev. George E. Ellis, D.D., of Charlestown; and to Dr. John Appleton, the Assistant Librarian of the Massachusetts Historical Society, - for valuable aid in the preparation of this volume for the press. I may add, that, after every thing except this Prefatory Note was in type, my younger friend, Mr. William S. Appleton, on his return from England, kindly communicated to me the following extract from an account of the principal Suffolk Families, which he had copied from the Tanner Mss. in the Bodleian Library at Oxford, and which, though containing no new fact, is interesting as an evidence that Governor Winthrop was not unremembered in the land of his birth: - "Winthrop. - John W. of Groton, Esq. went into N. E. and was there first Governour after they had their patent from King Charles, - reputed a very wise man and oftimes chosen their Governour. He ended his dayes in N. E."
