William HUTCHINSON

                   Ancestral File..More information... ...this needs varification...

note:....many of her children also died the same day she did probably killed by Indians also

From Book " Four Women In A Violent Time" by deborah Crawford
(Maureen Bryson, in the LV Temple office is also related to her.....She loaned me a book which is now out of print) This book  tells the story of Anne Marbury who was born about 17 July 1591 in Alford, Lincolnshire, England  and that of her father, Francis Marbury,  who was sent to prison for preaching differently than the established church.  However, there was a great need for pastors later and he was released and given a pastorship in London at the Church of St. Martins in the Vintry if he would tone down his preaching..  So they moved from Alford in the southeast part of England to London. when she was about 14 yrs. old. (about 1605).

Francis Marbury was thrown into prison for preaching truths that the government were against....Later he was released and given a church in London..... 

p23  So far the English emigration had been for the purpose of exploration and profitable trade.  But in 1611 another motivation was burgeoning---the desire, in some cases the pressing need, to escape from religious persecution.  Under the aegis of Bishop William Laud, the Star Chamber was growing more and more vengeful in its verdicts.  This secret court was cutting off the ears of those who dared speak up for any Puritan beliefs, branding a man on both cheeks with the letters S L for "seditious libeler," and imprisoning others in filthy dungeons for life.  It was enough to make a man like Francis Marbury quail and stick more than ever to the strict observance of Established Church ritual;  it was perhaps also enough to set up an intolerable fear in him whenever he preached to his London populace.  At any event, after only five and a half years of wearing fine vestments and lording it in one of London's most "Established" churches, Minister Marbury, in February, 1611, collapsed and died.
        Immediately, the family was faced with the need to vacate the rectory to make room for a new minister.  Anne herself was grief stricken.  In the middle of packing up and confusion and tears, there was Will Hutchinson from Alford, hat in hand, a yearning bachelor of twenty-six.  Anne was now twenty-one.  What was she waiting for?  The familiar, earnest face of Will Hutchinson looked very good to her, even though all he offered was a house back in Alford, where he had taken over his father's dry goods business.  Velvets and tamsies and good stout Holland cloth that he sold around the countryside.  Well, and would they not come in handy in making a home?
        They were married August 9, 1612.  Her father's will divided his small estate among wife and children, leaving Anne about L150, a dowry that went a long way toward furnishing a home.  In May of the following year Anne's first child was born, named Edward for her brother, and baptized in the little church of St. Wilfrid's at Alford, where Will held the position of warden---responsible for the safety of the giltedged Bible, sacred articles of silver, and the locking up at night.
         Anne liked the preaching of Reverend John Cotton in Boston at the St. Botolph's Church and they often traveed the twenty-four miles for Sunday service.  He was to change the course of her life.

Hi,
       Thought you would enjoy this story as I have.  I've cried over
this story.  I think our ancestor was such a strong woman and stood
for what she believed.  Her father was put in prison in England for
preaching the gospel....later released because of the great need for
a good pastor, he was given a church in London where he died in 1611.
     If you go to google.com and put in Anne Marbury it will come up
with numerous sites.  Anne was the first women preacher in New
England....Go to end of this next few paragraphs for another little
bit about her......We can truly be proud of her.
      Our ancestry comes down from Anne Hutchinson this way:

Anne Marbury Hutchinson
of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York


          So much has been documented about Anne Marbury Hutchinson
that I feel I'm being superfluous in saying more. There are a
proliferation of good websites from which to obtain information on
Anne's life, and for those who wish to learn more, I direct your
attention to the links section on this page. On this page, I've
provided a brief summary of Anne's life, parentage, marriage,
children and my line of descent from her. Beyond this, I hope that
those who are interested will investigate the many available
resources which chronicle the life of this remarkable and brave
woman.

Anne Marbury was the daughter of Rev. Francis Marbury and Bridget Dryden. She was baptized on July 20, 1591 at Alford, Lincolnshire, England. On August 6, 1612, she was married to a textile merchant, William Hutchinson, at St. Mary's Parish at Woolnoth, London,  England. In July 1634, Anne, William and their brood of children
emigrated to America, where they arrived on September 18 and settled in Boston, part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Anne led a quiet life as a housewife and a midwife. She held weekly meetings with other woman to discuss the Sunday sermons. Eventually, these meeting attracted a larger following. The historically simple explanation of
the problems that eventually befell her was that her belief in the covenant of grace versus the covenant of works led some, particularly the Puritan leadership of Massachusetts Bay, to view her as an antinomian heretic. More than likely, the situation was more multi-faceted than this. Anne was subsequently tried and convicted of heresy, and in 1637, she was banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony by Governor John Winthrop. In 1638, she established a settlement on the island of Aquidneck (Rhode Island) with some of her followers (Portsmouth). After her husband, William Hutchinson, died in 1642, Anne removed with her younger children to an isolated, wooded area on Long Island Sound (now Scarsdale, New York). In 1643, Anne, all of her servants and her younger children, except one, were massacred by Indians. Her ten-year-old daughter, Susannah, was the sole survivor of this massacre. It is through Susannah Hutchinson that I derive my descent from Anne Marbury and William Hutchinson.
Anne Marbury and William Hutchinson had the following children:

America's Christian Leaders: Anne Hutchinson
By Jay Rogers

In 1636, Anne Hutchinson, the wife of one of Boston's leading citizens, was charged with heresy and banished from Massachusetts Colony. A woman of learning and great religious conviction, Hutchinson challenged the Puritan clergy and asserted her view of the "Covenant of Grace" - that moral conduct and piety should not be the
primary qualifications for "visible sanctification."

Her preachings were unjustly labeled "antinomianism" by the Puritans - a heresy - since the Christian leaders of that day held to a strong "Covenant of Works" teaching which dictated the need for outward signs of God's grace. The question of "works versus grace" is a very old one; it goes on forever in a certain type of mind. Both are true
doctrines, however, the "Covenant of Grace" is true in a higher sense.
Anne Hutchinson's teaching can be summed up in a simple phrase which she taught the women who met in her home: "As I do understand it, laws, commands, rules and edicts are for those who have not the light which makes plain the pathway. He who has God's grace in his heart cannot go astray."
Actually, what Anne Hutchinson was preaching was not antithetical to what the Puritans believed at all. What began as quibbling over fine points of Christian doctrine ended as a confrontation over the role of authority in the colony. Threatened by meetings she held in her Boston home, the clergy charged Hutchinson with blasphemy. An
outspoken female in a male hierarchy, Hutchinson had little hope that many would speak in her defense, and she was being tried by the General Court.
After being sentenced, she went with her family to what is now Rhode Island. Several years later she moved to New York where she and some of her family were massacred by Indians. One of her descendants, Thomas Hutchinson, later became governor of Massachusetts.  Anne Hutchinson pioneered the principles of civil liberty and religious freedom which were written into the Constitution of the United States. The spirit of Anne Hutchinson, the first woman preacher and fearless defender of freedom in New England, survived her persecution and death and it survives even until this day.

Biography 
   
Anne Hutchinson, was born Anne Marbury, in in Alford, Lincolnshire, England, in July, 1591, the daughter of Bridget Dryden and Francis Marbury, a deacon at Christ Church, Cambridge.  Anne's father believed that most of the ministers in the Church of England had not accessed their positions through proper training, but for political reasons.  He so openly deplored this lack of competence from the clergy that he was arrested, and spent a year in jail for his "subversive" words of dissent.  This did not deter Marbury from continuing to voice his opinions, and there would be more arrests.  Marbury later found success as the rector of St. Martin's Vintry, rector of St. Pancras, and finally rector of St. Margaret's. 
Given her father's strong beliefs and academic competence, it's no surprise that Anne developed an interest in religion and theology at a very young age.  Anne was home-schooled, and  read from her father's library, where she found there were as many new questions about faith as there seemed to be answers.  She had grown to admire her father's ideals and assertiveness, and wasn't afraid of questioning the principles of faith and the authority of the Church, as is usually the case with anyone who has had the benefit of a good education.

At the age of 21, Anne married Will Hutchinson, and settled down in Alford, where she took on the role of housewife and mother, while retaining a vivid interest in theology and the Church.  She and her family followed the sermons of John Cotton, a Protestant minister whose teachings echoed those of her father's, but were now more commonly accepted under the increasingly popular banner of Puritanism.

As much as Anne's father had been criticized and condemned for his views, many Protestants had grown increasingly concerned with the level of corruption within the Catholic Church, and to a certain degree within the Protestant Church; a new reformist movement known as Puritanism has evolved, thus named because it's main objective was to "purify" the National Church of all Catholic influence.
