Notes:

Name:
He was an early settle at Windsor, where he had two lots granted him in 1640, but in 1656, he moved to Farmington He was Representative for that place in the General Court of Connecticut for twenty-six sessions from May, 1657; was named in the Royal Charter of Connecticut, April 23, 1662; was chosen Commissioner for Farmington, May, 1663, was Assistant or member of the upper house of the legislature from May, 1668 until his death, and was a distinguished man in Farmington for many years. It seems probable his real name was HAWKINS; it was often spelled in that way, though he seemed to have preferred the "o." he may have come from Braintree, co. Essex, or its vicinity. A family of Hawkins living there were intimately connected with several of the early settlers; Joseph Loomis of Windsor was one of the. He is mentioned in the will of Joh Hawkins of Braintree, as a "loving friend and neighbor" and there is also the mention of a "cousin Tomson." Anthony Howkins second wife was Ann, dau. of Gov. Thomas Welles and widow ofThomas Thomson. Stiles says Anthony Howkins m. Isabel Brown. (Ancient Windsor, 2, p. 369), and the New England Reg., (5, p. 228), makes the same mistake; "Anthony Hoskins of Windsor, d. 4, Jan 1706/7, m. Isabel Brown 16 July 1658." (Land Records of Conn, col., also will of Hoskins.) Hannah, daughter of Anthony Howkins by his second wife, m. Dec 21, 1681, Jonathan Nichols of Derby, Conn., son of Isaac Nichols.
