Note: Hugh Caulkins is believed to have come from Monmouthshire, on the Welsh border, and he was certainly one of the "Welsh Company" that was led to the new world by the Reverend Richard Blinman. Hugh Caulkins originally settled at Green's Harbor, Massachusetts, where he was made a freeman on Mar 2 1640. He soon moved to Salem, where he was made a freeman on Dec 27 1642, and then to Lynn. He was made a representative to the Massachusetts General Court in 1648, but moved to Connecticut before he finished his term.

He moved to New London, Connecticut, after the Rev. Blinman moved there and he registered land there on Oct 19 1650. he was a representative to the Connecticut Assembly twelve times from New London, from 1652 to 1660 and was also a selectman there. He became associated with a Saybrook company that purchased and settled Norwich, and was made the first deacon of the Norwich Church. He is considered one of the founders of Norwich. He sold land in New London in 1661. he served in the Connecticut Assembly from Norwich from 1663 to1671.

He often served on committees connected with boundaries and surveying, for which it seems he had been trained in England.

Note: The Reverend John Collins was born in England, and came to this country with his father. He was educated at Harvard, graduating in 1649, and then went to Edinburgh, Scotland, to study for the clergy. He never returned to America.

He served as one of General Monck's personal chaplins in 1659 and accompanied him and his army on his march from Scotland to London in 1659, an action that was instrumental in bringing about the restoration of the Stuart monarchy the following year.

Although named as one of the "silenced ministers," he succeeded Thomas Mallory as pastor of the congregational church in Lime Street, London. He was described by a contemporary as "a good preacher, and a man of catholic spirit." Cotton Mather, in his History of New England," discusses him and his virtues at length.

There is an article on the Reverend John Collins in the Dictionary of National Biography.
