D., 1889 Of these early settlers, James was the son of Robert, of Hatfield, Broad Oak, Essex Co., England, and died in Ipswich, in 1702; Edward, of Lynn, came over in the Truelove, in 163 5, and died in 1639, leaving issue from which most of the Howe families in Connecticut have descended. Daniel, of Lynn, after holding several public offices in Massa chusetts, removed to Southampton, on Long Island. They were all honest, hardy, vigorous men, having, in the main, large families, which, multiplying and increasing from generation to generation, have, by their industry, genius, probity and valor, aided in' laying the foundations and in building up the strue ture of this Republic; and they are now found busily engaged in the various trades and professions, arts and industries of life, in almost every section of the Union. So far as known, but one of them was ever exe cuted for a crime, and that was Mrs. Elizabeth Howe, of Ipswich, hung for witchcraft in 1692; but her Vir tues, just as those of her great Master, sanctified the altar; and her name, now as the mists of superstition break away, becomes illustrious.
