Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogy of One Branch of the Webster Family: 1600 to 1900 Hollister says, About the beginning of June, 1636, Mr. Hooker, Mr. Stone, mr.webster, and about one hundred men, women and children, set out upon the long-contemplated' journey. Over mountains, through swamps, across rivers, fording some, crossing others upon rudely constructed rafts, with the compass to point out their irregular way, slowly they moved westward, driving their flocks and herds before them, the strong supporting the weak, the old caring for the young; with hearts cheerful as the month slowly they m ved ou. Mrs. Hooker was ill and was borne upon a litter. A stately, well ordered journey it was, for gentlemen of fortune and rank were of the company, and ladies who had been delicately bred and who had known little of trial or hardship until now. At the end of about two weeks they reached the land almost fabulous to them - the valley of the Connecticut.
