The following excerpt regards Anne Marbury Hutchinson. References will be added at a later date. The English family of William Hutchinson was of Lincolnshire stock, not identical with those of Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire, although it has assumed the same arms. It can be traced to the early part of the sixteenth century in Lincoln, until Edward, the father of William Hutchinson, the immigrant, removed from Lincoln to Alford about 1580. It was there that William Hutchinson resided until his removal to New England with his wife, Anne Marbury. Thirteen children were born to them in Alford; three died and were buried there. Ten accompanied their parents to New England; and two were born to them in Boston. As Anne Hutchinson was so distinctly a representative of her sex, her blood inheritance is more important than that which furnishes quarterings to heraldry, granting even that her husband's branch of the Hutchinson name were entitled to the coat which they assumed. Thus the fact that Anne's mother was by birth a Dryden is of essential interest. The neighborhood of Alford to Boston, England, where the Hutchinsons had often sat under John Cotton at St. Botolph's Church, had created friendly relations with him, and his change of residence doubtless induced them to follow his example. In fact, their eldest son, Edward, then twenty years old, actually accompanied Mr. Cotton on his voyage to Boston. The Hutchinsons were received with all the cordiality of which the Puritan community was capable. In March, 1635, William Hutchinson and two of his sons, Richard and Francis, became "freemen" of the colony, and, in the following May, William was chosen to represent Boston in the General Court. Anne Hutchinson took a prominent place in the church and the community almost from the time of her admission, and assumed a position hitherto almost unknown by women, or permitted to them in public affairs. For a considerable time she encountered no difficulty in asserting her views upon religious questions-having passed on the "torch of life" in so wonderful a manner by the duties of maternity-and continued to carry forward in service to her neighbors and to all who were in need of mercy, charity, and sympathy. She was generous in means, and in those days, when nursing as a distinctive occupation or profession was unknown, her personal devotion in childbirth, and in all kinds of illness, her comfort of the needy, and her consolation to the dying, won her way to the affections of the community. Those who afterwards became her enemies, including Governor Winthrop himself, and the Reverend John Wilson, her implacable opponent, paid tribute to her knowledge of scripture, her wit and wisdom, arid her discreet and unfailing charity. It had been the custom at week-day meetings for the men of the community to discuss the pulpit deliverances of the preceding Sunday. Mistress Hutchinson instituted similar meetings for the women. These grew to have such large attendance, and consequent importance, that, in a community already excited by the controversies which resulted in the banishment of Roger Williams, attention began to be directed to the assemblies at Anne Hutchinson's house. This was increased, perhaps, by the fact that Henry Vane, newly arrived and chosen-governor (as well as Mr. Cotton), became advocates, not only of Mistress Hutchinson's methods, but of the special doctrine upon which she insisted, namely, that the works of professors of religion could not be appealed to as justification, without the spiritual gifts of grace. As a result of the personal antagonism which resulted from the severe criticism of their opinions at her meetings, the first warnings were heard of active proceedings against those who listened to Anne Hutchinson's teachings. Governor Vane as a candidate for reflection was defeated, and returned to England, and while the sentiment in Boston remained less bitter and menacing, the ministers of many towns in Massachusetts were mustered to support measures to be propounded at the General Court against heretical teachings and heretics. Anne Hutchinson's former friends turned against her. Even her old champion, John Cotton, made only a feeble defense, fearing the safety of his own position. After a two day's trial she was found guilty of heresy and was sentenced to banishment-the sentence to be deferred until the end of the existing winter season-and confined as a prisoner to the care of Mr. Joseph Welde, on the approval of her most bitter enemy, the Roxbury minister. Of this mock trial it has been said: "It was the most shameful proceeding in the annals of Protestantism. Winthrop, a trained lawyer, sat there, grave, stern, convinced beforehand of the culprit's guilt and resolved to banish her from the plantation. As the proceedings came to their predestined conclusion: 'I desire to know whereof I am banished,' said this woman, with the quiet courage of the early martyrs. 'Say no more,' replied Winthrop, 'the court knows whereof, and is satisfied.' Anne Hutchinson bowed her head and placing her hand upon the Bible said: 'The Lord judgeth not as man judgeth. Better to be cast out of the Church than to deny Christ.'" In the latter part of March, 1638, she was sent from Boston and joined her husband in Rhode Island, where William Hutchinson died at Newport in 1642. Threats which were made to extend the jurisdiction of the Bay State Colony over the Narragansett country seemed to render the Rhode Island residence an unsafe one for the banished, and several English families having already settled in the New Amsterdam jurisdiction, the Hutchinson family removed thither in the autumn of 1642, and took up their residence in a tract of land purchased near what is now Pelham Bay. It was an unfortunate choice of residence, as the Dutch governor had aroused the enmity of the Indians. In August, 1643, an attack was made on the settlement by savages, who burned Anne Hutchinson's house and slew every person within it, including six of her children, excepting her youngest daughter, who was carried into captivity by the Indians. She was not recovered from the hands of the savages for four years, and had then become one of them, having forgotten her own mother tongue. The particular conditions of the theological controversy in which Mistress Hutchinson took such a prominent part are interesting today only to the churchman and the historian. The principles which she represented, both in the Bay colony and afterwards in Rhode Island, were woman's freedom of thought and expression, and religious toleration-in her own words, "no person to be accounted delinquent for opinion" in religion or in civil affairs. In 1911 a bronze tablet to the memory of Mrs. Hutchinson was placed on Split Rock by the Society of Colonial Dames of the State of New York, who recognized that the resting place of this most noted woman of her time was well worthy of such a memorial. The tablet bears the following inscription: ANNE HUTCHINSON Banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1638 Because of her Devotion to Religious Liberty This Courageous Woman Sought Freedom from Persecution in New Netherland Near this Rock in 1643 She and her Household were Massacred by IndiansThis Tablet is placed here by the Colonial Dames of the State of New York ANNO DOMINI MCMXL Virtutes Majorurn Filiae Conservant This tablet was destroyed by some vandal hands and replaced by the original givers, the Colonial Dames of New York. There has been much confusion in the statements concerning the massacre of the Hutchinson family and as to the exact number of her children. It has been said at one time that all her children were there slaughtered. As appears by the following table, which is believed to be an accurate enumeration, there were only six who were killed there. The testimony of the Reverend James De Normandie given to Anne Hutchinson's character and services was the inspiration for the effort to present an effigy of this notable woman the noble statue by Cyrus F. Dallin-to the State of Massachusetts, where the installation in the State House might be considered as a symbol of the reparation due by the General Court of today for the injustice and cruelty of its predecessor. In regard to this Doctor De Normandie wrote: "Anne Hutchinson wielded a power and influence never before nor since equaled by any of her sex in America. Her influence upon the life of women is very marked even at the present day. Their freedom of thought is due to her more than to any other person. She is the spiritual ancestor of every woman's alliance; indeed of every organization in the land for patriotic or social or intellectual or religious conference and improvement-and in all years to come every such assembly should pay homage to the name and the spirit and the gifts and the memory of Anne Hutchinson."
