Hart Genealogy

--Misc. Hart information:

  -- Coat of Arms:

     --The Hart coat of arms belonged to the Lord Mayor of London, of that name.  It was granted to Stephen Hart in 1589.

  

--Meaning of the name Hart:

  -- The name Hart in England is very common.  It seems to be taken by men who were adept at hunting the red deer (at that time called the hart).  One version says the first man to receive the name Hart was a hunter for one of the early English Kings.  This man was so adept at bringing in the hart (deer) that the king dubbed him Hart.

  --The name Hart in Irish is this anglicized version of the name Airdt.

  

--Hart religion:

   --Many people of this surname were Presbyterians.  In later years they were Methodist Episcopal.

 

--Spelling found of the name Hart:

  -- Hart, Harte, Heart, Hearte

 

 --Note:

  -- My grandmother, Beverly Anna (Hirschuber) always believed that her ancestors were Irish.  Although Stephen came from England, he still may have been Irish.  Many Irish citizens were believed to be of a lower class.  Once in America Stephen was made a freeman.  Therefore he and or his parents were possibly Irish servants or something along that line for an English family.

 

  -- The numbering system used;

    Stephen Hart is given the number one because he is the first Hart in which we believe to know all of his children.  His children are Generation two.  Each person named in generation one, is assigned a number beginning with Stephen Hart (as #1) and continuing with his child John Hart .  These numbers are carried down to the next generation with the oldest child of the next generation receiving the next available number.  For example Stephen (#1) his first listed child is John, he is given the number two and so on thru the generations.   The names and numbers after each person give the persons direct line, by generation, back to Stephen, our number one (See example).

      ie.  2. John Hart (Stephen1).  This tells you that John's father is Stephen who is number one.  This is his direct line of descent.

 

--Double Dates

   --Double dates are used to account for the crossover between Julian and Gregorian calendars.  It accounts for dates between January 1 and March 25 for any year before 1753.  It is also used when estimating years or unclear years

The photo above is the 15th century house group where Deacon Stephen Hart was born.  It is located on Silent Street.  Originally Silent Street was called Colyhil or Colehill Lane, then Half-Moon St (after an inn formerly there) and finally Silent Street.  The last name was given because the town crier was forbidden there when the old houses were used as a hospital for the wounded during the Napoleonic wars.  The only reason this structure was not torn down is because Cardinal Thomas Wolsey lived in one of them as a boy and owned the group of buildings when he was the lord chancellor of England under King Henry VIII between 1511 and 1530.  Stephen Hart Sr. did not own this house, he rented it from 3 pounds a year. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

       

 

Generation I

 

*1.  Deacon Stephen Hart, was born in Braintree, England in about 1605.  He died in March 1682/83 at the age of 77 years in Farmington, Connecticut.

  He sailed from London, England aboard the “Lyon” on about 2 June 1632.  To the left is a photo of a model of the ship.  It is located in the lobby of City Hall, Braintree, UK.  Stephen  arrived in Boston, Massachusetts possibly on Sunday 16 September 1632.  It is believed by some that he may have come with a brother named Edmund.  (others believed he arrived on 2 November 1631, an earlier voyage of the Lyon).

The Lyon was owned by a group of Puritan investors in London.  Rev. Thomas Hooker's party, called the Braintree Company, employed the ship and her captain, Mr. William Pierce. 

Stephen arrived in Massachusetts Bay and lived in Cambridge and Dorchester.                                                             

  Stephen was in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1632 and was admitted a freeman there 14 May 1634.  In about 1635 he came to Hartford, Connecticut (1 of 10 men).  His house lot (in 1639) was on the west side of what is now called Front Street, near where Morgan Street crosses it.  There is a tradition that says the town of Hartford was named from the ford he discovered and used crossing the Connecticut River at a low stage of the water.  And so from Hart’s Ford it soon became Hartford by an easy and natural transition. 

  Tradition further says that as he and others were on a hunting excursion on Talcott Mountain, they discovered the Farmington River Valley, then inhabited by the Tunxis, a powerful tribe of Indians.  The meadows were probably then cleared and waving with grass and Indian corn.  Such lands were then much needed, and coveted by the settlers, who soon-probably as soon as 1640- made a bargain with the Indians, and settled among them with their cattle.  They still continued, however, connected with the settlement at Hartford, attending public worship and perhaps wintering there until about 1645 when the town was incorporated by the name of Farmington, from the excellent farms there.  The principal leaders in the settlement were John Steele, William Lewis, Stephen Hart, Thomas Judd, John Bronson, John Warner, Nathaniel Kellogg, Thomas Barnes, Richard Seymour and Thomas Gridley.

   About this time Mr. Roger Newton, a student in theology with Reverend Thomas Hooker (whose daughter he wed), began to preach for them, and in 1652 was ordained their pastor.  Stephen Hart was one of the seven pillars of the church and was chosen their first deacon.  These seven pillars, as these godly men were called, satisfied at last with each others “faith and repentance”, adopted a confession of faith and entered into a covenant.  They solemnly agreed, first with God, to be his people in Christ, and then with each other, to walk together in strict observance of their Christian duties and in the enjoyment of the ordinances of the church of Christ.  He appears to have taken the lead in the settlement among the Indians in Farmington and purchased a large tract on land on the border of the present town of Avon, and know to   this day by the name Harts farm; probably located at or near what is now called Cider Brook on the east side of the river and near the bridge, some 3 miles North of the Farmington Village.  He was one of the first representatives in 1647 and continued, with one exception, for 15 sessions until 1655 and once in 1660.  He was a farmer and a large landholder; a man of great influence, and a leading character there.  His house lot was four or five times as large as any other, and was situated on the west side of Main Street, opposite the meetinghouse.  It contained 15 acres.

   He was an early member of the church.  His name is on the founder's monument. His name also appears on the plaque on a boulder at the corner of Main & Arch Street in Hartford called Adventurers Boulder.  “In memory of the courageous Adventurers who inspired and directed by Thomas hooker journeyed through the wilderness from Newtown (Cambridge) in the Massachusetts Bay to Suckiaug (Hartford)-October 1635.  Stephen also lived in Farmington, and was one of the original members of Farmington Church 13 October 1652 and deacon.  Stephen was an original proprietor at Hartford.  He was deputy from Farmington May 1647 to 1655 and again in 1660; one of the 84 proprietors of Farmington in 1672.  His will dated 16 March and Inventoried 31 March 1682/83. Inv. L340-4.  Stephen also enlisted during the Pequot War of 1637 from Hartford.  He had a lot in the soldiers field.  He was listed as being from Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1632.

   Deacon Stephen Hart was married twice.  The name of his first wife has not yet been found.  Some sources believe it to be Sarah.

    His second wife was Margaret, the widow of Arthur Smith and widow of Joseph Nash before him.  Margaret died 1 March 1692 (also found 1693/94) at the age of 93 years. He may have married her in about 1679.  She gave her land to her children; John and Arthur Smith and her daughter Elizabeth Thompson.  Her grandchildren were Elizabeth, John and Ann Thompson.

   She married John Webb on 26 October 1730.  Rev. Theophilus Hall performed the ceremony.  John died 6 May 1799 at the age of 92 years at Meriden. They lived in the Meriden Parish.  When Captain John Webb died in 1799 he left to his servants Daphy and Joe whom he previously emancipated a considerable amount of property for their support.          

    Joe and Daphy Prin or Prinn, afterwards lived in a house on Paddock avenue on the east side of the street a short distance south of the turnpike-a slight depression by the road side filled with stone still marks the site of the old house.

    The son of Joe and Daphy, Robin, married the daughter of Chatham Freeman and after the latter’s death, he and his wife lived at Freeman’s old house which stood near the entrance of Mr. Charles Z. Murdock’s drive way.

    “Lemon a son of Chatham Freeman lived in a house that formally stood on Swain Ave., Lemon’s son Richard died in this same home.  There were many people who remembered Richard who was in great demand on many occasions, for he and his fiddle were famous the country around.”

     :For many years Capt. Webb was a well-known figure and influential man in Meriden, and possessed considerable wealth.  He came from Wethersfield in 1729 and built his house which stood perhaps one hundred feet east of the present home of Mrs. Juliette Y. Curtis on the then new turn pike, No. 309 Broad Street. Capt. Webb and his wife died leaving no children.  He willed a greater part of his estate to his kinsman Benjamin Hart whose aunt he had married.  He doubtless tore down the old house and erected the present home of Mre. Cyrtis.  Capt. Webb’s kindness of heart was so great that he left his two negro slaves Joe and Daphy Prinn a handsome competence and gave them their freedom.  The commissions of John Webb as Lieutenant and Captain hang in the Curtis Memorial library. The farm was a large one and extended westerly quite to the property of the Curtis home, and was bounded on the north partly by the highway and the farm of Theophilus Hall.  This highway passed to the west from Curtis street following the general line of New Street until it reaches the present Elm Street when it turned diagonally to the northwest until it meets Olive Street and then westerly in the same direction, now followed by that street to the country road or Colony Street.  At its junction on the south side was the home of Stephen Atwater-Olive Street east of the junction with this old street was not in existence until many years later.

The village properly takes its name from its founder and patron.
