Notes |
- From the Descendants of Joseph Peck, page 324:
Henry Peck early settled at New Haven. He was among the first settlers there in the spring of 1638. He and Deacon William Peck, who also settled there in 1638, were doubtless relatives, and may have been brothers. They are supposed to have emigrated to this country in the company of Gov. Eaton, with the Rev. John Davenport and others, who arrived at Boston, June 26, 1637, in the ship Hector.
Who his progenitors were has not yet been ascertained, have found none of the descendants to second any efforts of mine to do so, although many of them are abundantly able. He signed the fundamental agreement or compact of the settlers, made June 4, 1639, and took an active interest in the management and affairs of the settlement. His home lot was in that part of the town now the city. A portion of it on what is now [1868] George Street, continues in the posseion of his descendants. He died in 1651. His will is dated October 30, 1651. [2]
