Samuel Lathrop Biography Excerpt from the biography of Ernest Avery Lathrop, "A Modern History of New London County, Connecticut," published 1922.

Samuel Lathrop was a builder of Boston, and a farmer of Barnstable, finally settling in what is now New London, Connecticut, where he became one of the judges of the local court organized in 1649. In 1668 he moved to Norwich, Connecticut where he was chosen constable. He first married on 28 November, 1644, in Barnstable, Elizabeth Scudder. They were the parents of nine children, their eldest, a son, baptized 7 Dec 1645, their youngest, a daughter, Anne, born 7 Aug, 1667. Samuel Lathrop married second in 1690, Abigail Doane, born 29 Jan 1632, daughter of Deacon Doane, of the Plymouth Colony. She survived her husband thirty four years, living to the great age of one hundred and two.

He was a house carpenter by trade, combining with it extensive farming operations. In 1648 he went to New London, then called Pequot, where he built the "Second Church" and held positions of responsibility and honor. In 1649 the General Court organized a local court at Pequot and Samuel was one of the judges. In 1668 he removed to Norwich, where he is recorded as "Constable" and "Townsman", and where he died, leaving the widow Abigail who survived him many years.

____________________

From Huntington's A Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathrop Family ...:

SAMUEL, born in England, and came with his father to Scituate in 1634, thence to Barnstable, where he married, Nov. 28, 1644, Elizabeth Scudder, who had been dismissed from the church in Boston Nov. 10, 1644, to remove her church relation to that in Barnstable. She is reported in Savage as a sister to that John Scudder who was in Barnstable in 1640. He had made the acquaintance of Miss Scudder in Boston, where he commenced his business life as house builder, afterwards combining with this extensive farming operations, Their marriage was recorded by his father on the Barnstable Church Register as follows: "My sonn Samuel & Elizabeth Scudder marryed at my house by Mr. Freeman, Nov. 28, 1644."

They settled in Barnstable, where his house stood next that of John Scudder.

He is reported, in 1643, as one of the five Lothrops at Barnstable liable to bear arms.

In 1648 he removed to New London, Connecticut, then called Pequot. We now find Mr. Lothrop mentioned in two letters from Governor Winthrop to his son John, Jr., at Pequot. In one of these, bearing date Aug. 14, 1648, on the subject of obtaining a minister for the settlement, he writes: " Your neighbour Lothrop came not at me (as I expected) to advise about it," etc.

His house lot in the new plantation was the third in order from that of John Winthrop, Jr,, Esq., and his name is one of the first eighteen to whom were assigned lands on the east side of the "great river" of Pequot, and for these the lots were drawn on the 17th and 31st of January, 1648-9.

Almost at once Mr. Lothrop is assigned by his new townsmen to places of responsibility and honor. The General Court of the State, in May, 1649, organized a local court at Pequot, having for its judges John Winthrop, Esq., Samuel Lothrop, and Thomas Minor, giving them power to sit in the trial of all causes between the inhabitants in which the differences were under forty shillings.

In 1650 he appears with fifteen other townsmen in town meeting "to arrange a system of co-operation with Mr. Winthrop in establishing a mill to grind corn."

He received a large grant of land, also, on the west side of the Pequot river north of the settlement. It was about five miles up the river at a place called Namussuck. A farm of 260 acres at this place remained in the family until 1735, when it was sold by his grandson Nathaniel, after settling all claims, for 2,300 pounds.

His "cattle marks" were recorded before 1650. When, in 1657, Uncas, routed by the Narragansetts, had been chased into tile fort at the head of the Nahantick and was there beseiged, Lieut. James Avery, Mr. Brewster, Samuel Lothrop and others, well armed, succeeded in throwing themselves into the fort and aided in the defence.

He sold his town homestead in 1661 to the Rev. Gershom Bulkley. This house stood beyond the bridge over the mill brook, on east side of highway toward Mohegan, "probably where now (1852) stands the Hallam House."

In 1679 is recorded a contract of Mr. Lothrop for building the Second Church in New London.

He removed to Norwich in 1668. Miss Caulkins in history of Norwich says, "after the first thirty-eight proprietors the next inhabitants who came in as grantees of the town are John Elderkin and Samuel Lothrop." A house lot was first granted to John Elderkin, who, finding it too far from his business, had it conveyed to Samuel Lothrop.

Mr. Lothrop appears to have erected a house on the town street before 1670, which from that time became his home. The house built by Dr. Daniel Lathrop, his great-grandson, about 1745, probably stands upon the same site-now Mrs. Gilman's.

Also READ Jane Fletcher Fiske, "A New England Immigrant Kinship Network," "The American Genealogist," volume 72, (1997): 285. Some other sources that have been attached have errors for the immigrant generation and their common English ancestor.

This Elizabeth Scudder was christened at Strood, Kent, England,1625, the daughter of John Scudder and Elizabeth Stoughton. He was the son of Henry Scudder, yeoman of Horton Kirby, Kent, who made his will 29 September 1594.

Elizabeth married Samuel Lathrop in 1644 at Barnstable, Mass. She and her famous husband were recently deleted from this system because of being merged with a invalid version of her and then replaced by her cousin. They are now restored according to primary and credible sources. Please do not override with online trees and gedcoms because they usually contain errors and sometimes override relationships and accurate sources carefully in place. Please review the article by Jane Fletcher Fiske, "A New England Kinship Network," The American Genealogist [TAG], volume 72, (1997): 294-297 that also helps to distinguish Samuel Lathrop's wife from her cousin of the same name. The family data for John Scudder and Elizabeth Stoughton is on the Strood Parish Register. And please see Life Sketch on Elizabeth's husband Samuel Lathrop's page for more of their history and data about their children.

AN ACCURATE TIMELINE BY LOCATION is clear in several historical sources.

Samuel Lathrop and wife Elizabeth Scudder did not move to Norwich until 1668 after living for 20 years at the new town of (Pequot) New London, CT to which they had moved by August 1648. In 1668 Samuel & Elizabeth Lathrop moved up the river to Norwich which town was not even commenced until 1659. Let's have the children be born where the parents were living according to their historical data in "A Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathrop Family," pp 38–39 and "The History of New London," by Francis Manwaring Caulkins" and "The History of Norwich" by Francis Manwaring Caulkins on p. 217.
Although the family was not present at Norwich until 1668, since it was Samuel Lathrop's final home, the children's births are recorded in the Vital Records of Norwich 1659 - 1848, most having been born at New London except for the first two, John (in Boston, MA) and Elizabeth (in Barnstable, MA).

For citations for an accurate timeline for the family of Samuel Lathrop and Elizabeth Scudder and where their children's births would have occurred in order to be present with their parents, see "Samuel Lathrop and Elizabeth (Scudder) of Barnstable, New London and Norwich," "Scudder Family Historical & Biographical Journal" at scudder.org
Samuel and Elizabeth moved to (Pequot) New London, CT in summer of 1648, after the births of John and Elizabeth. They lived at New London for 20 years, not moving to Norwich until 1668, after their children were all born. The family was recorded with birth dates on the records of Norwich but this occurred after their move to Norwich, after the births had taken place.

See short history of Samuel in "A Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathrop Family..." pp 38-40 and 46–48. Its data is confirmed by historical sources at Barnstable, New London and Norwich.

Rev. John Lothropp (1584–1653) — sometimes spelled Lothrop or Lathrop — was an English Anglican clergyman, who became a Congregationalist minister and emigrant to New England. He was among the first settlers of Barnstable, Massachusetts. Perhaps Lothropp's principal claim to fame is that he was a strong proponent of the idea of the Separation of Church and State (also called "Freedom of Religion"). This idea was considered heretical in England during his time, but eventually became the mainstream view of people in the United States of America, because of the efforts of John Lothropp and others. Lothropp left an indelible mark on the culture of New England, and through that, upon the rest of the country. He has had many notable descendants, including at least six US presidents, as well as many other prominent Governors, government leaders, leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and business people.

Descendants[edit]
