BIRTH: About 1585 (aged 50 on 18 July 1635). Magistrate who came to Massachusetts Bay in 1635 on the "Defence." (On 18 July 1635, "W[illia]m Hubbard," husbandman, aged 50, "Judith Hubbard," aged 25, "John Hubbard," aged 15, "W[illia]m Hubbard," aged 13, "Nathaniel Hubbard," aged 6, "Richard Hubbard," aged 4, "Martha Hubbard," aged 22, and "Mary Hubbard," aged 20, were enrolled at London as passengers for New England on the Defence. First settled in Ipswich; moved to Boston by 1662. Died between 8 June 1670 (date of will) and 19 August 1670 (probate of will).
MARRIAGES: (1) By about 1613 _____ _____.
(2) By about 1629 Judith _____. She was living on 28 May 1657
In his will William Hubbard refers to land which he "purchased of my cousin John Brown," but the exact manner in which these two men were cousins has not been discovered. There may be a further clue to this relationship in a court case of 29 September 1657, in which John Allen deposed that "he saw Edmond Bridges at Mr. Hubbard's house two or three times this summer; and saw his unseemly carriages towards Mary Browne."
In his will William Hubbard bequeathed to two of his sons land in "Tendring Hundred" and "Dover Court." Tendring and Dovercourt are parishes in the easternmost end of Essex, Tendring Hundred being a grouping of parishes which includes Tendring. Based on this clue, Winifred Lovering Holman undertook research in Tendring, Great Clacton and Little Clacton. The only useful item was obtained from the vicar of Little Clacton, who reported that "William Hubbard the son of Firgard(?) and Susan his wife of Bovells Hall was baptized the fifth day of September 1589." (The name of the father, which the vicar could not read, might be Richard.) This might possibly be the baptismal record for the immigrant, but more evidence is needed.
