• Notes

  Matthew Moulthrop, born, England. Was at New Haven in 1639; died, New Haven, 22nd December, 1668. Admitted to the First Church of New Haven before 1644. His wife, Jane, who died May, 1672, was admitted to the same church before 1661. Record of marriage, which took place in England, has not been found. Will in Volume i, page 143, of New Haven Probates, through which he disposes of comfortable estates for that period of time. Jane his widow, left a will recorded in Volume i, page 156, of the New Haven records. The family name is thought to be of Danish origin and it seems probable that the family came from Denmark through England. The name is spelled variously in existing historical records as Moulthrip, Molthrop, Moultrop, Moulltrop, Moltroup, Moultroup, Moultrep, Moulthropp, and the latter would seem to be the original form. Matthew, the immigrant, moved from New Haven to Stony River, East Haven, in 1662. Of the child Mary no further record has been found. Matthew and his wife were members of the First Church at New Haven, and in Atwood's History of New Haven, their names are recorded in the seating of the meeting-house, from 1646 to 1665. The same history contains a map of the early New Haven Colony on which is shown the plot of land owned by Matthew Moulthrop. Baker's History and Antiquities of New Haven gives authority for the statements of residence.
