Notes. 

 

John Cullick married Elizabeth Fenwick 20 May 1648.  Elizabeth was Mary's stepmother.

Elizabeth's brother was Colonel George Fenwick [GMD] (and so a Bissell step great-uncle).  Col. Fenwick was a British lawyer and active in setting up the plans for settling Connecticut.  He was the agent for two Puritan Lords, Saye and Brooke, and brought his family to Saybrook in 1639.  His wife Alice died and he returned to England in 1645.  He was a participant in the Second English Civil War and Cromwell's invasion of Scotland in 1650, for which he was made Governor of Leith and Edinburgh Castle in 1650 and Hume Castle in 1651.

Some sources suggest that Anna White's husband was not John Porter but was a David Porter.  I don't know.

The Olcott family in America

A significant reference for the Olcott family in America is The Descendants of Thomas Olcott, One of the First Settlers of Hartford, Ct. (1630-1874), by Nathaniel Goodwin (1848), revised and extended by Henry S. Olcott (1874: Albany, NY). Information from a number of other publications are incorporated in the following narrative.

 

 

Thomas and Abigail (Porter) Olcott

 

 

Thomas OLCOTT - bap. Feb. 2, 1613, St Lawrence Jewry, London, England; d. early 1653/4, aboard ship enroute to Virginia. Son of Thomas OLCOTT and Margaret HYDE. At Hartford, CT by 1639; constable 1640, his name appears on Hartford's Founders Monument. Thomas was a merchant in shipping trade between New England and Maryland and Virginia. His will was written Nov. 20, 1653, Hartford, CT, and his estate inventoried at £1466.08.05 Feb. 13, 1654. The primary portion of his estate (£1141.18.0) was in debts receivable, presumably from his trading business. Thomas' will includes many doctrinal statements of the Puritan Christian faith, including the Trinity as the "merciful Father and blessed Redeemer and eternal Comforter," man's original state in "the chains of darkness and the dungeons of sin and misery," election in mercy and love "by a mighty and unresistable power," the resurrection of the body when "both body and soul shall be reunited," "worldly goods which the Lord hath been pleased to lend," and "God's faithfulness and goodness" through "his everlasting covenant." Thomas and Abigail were married in England.

Abigail - b. about 1615, England; d. May 26, 1693, Hartford, CT. Will dated Jan. 12, 1692/3, proved Sep. 7, 1693. Possibly the daughter of Mr. PORTER, of London. David PORTER, possibly her brother, was on a visit to Hartford when he drowned in the river. The account of costs dated Jun. 8, 1678 for his burial at Hartford was £4.14.04. Inventory of the estate of David PORTER was noted at Hartford Dec. 5, 1678, when Abigail was granted administration, with the remainder of the estate reserved for the "mother or brother" of David.
