    Institute," Vol. LIV.

    !This applies to the son of Richard Lord NOT Richard Lord himself:

    !Brief Sketch: Thomas Lord, a man of means, position, and influence was
    registered for passage to America on the 29th of April, 1635 from the
    port of London on the ship "Elizabeth and Ann" Captain Robert Cooper,
    Master. They landed in Boston and joined son Richard Lord in Newtown
    (now Cambridge). In 1636, with his entire family, Thomas Lord joined the
    party of Rev. Mr. Hooker (an old friend) and Mr. Stone and 100 men, women
    and children, and ... depart(ed)... to form a new settlement on the Conn-
    ecticut River. A passage from Trumbull's Memorial History of Hartford
    describes their journey,
    !"They traveled more than 100 miles, through a hideous and trackless
    wild- erness to Hartford. They had no guide but their compass; and made
    their way over mountains, through swamps, thickets, and rivers, which
    were pass- able with great difficulty. They had no cover but the heavens,
    and no lodgings but such as nature afforded them. They drove with them
    160 head of cattle and subsisted by the way on the milk of their cows.
    Mrs Hooker was borne through the wilderness on a litter. The people
    generally carried their packs, arms, and some utensils. They were nearly
    a fortnight (20 days) on their journey. This adventure was the more
    remarkable as many of this company were persons of figure, who in
    England had lived in honor, affluence, and delicacy, and were strangers to
    fatigue and danger. Governor Haynes and some others did not appear in
    the colony until 1637."
