Timeline
Puritans Thomas Powell (1616–1681) and Priscilla Powell (nee Whitson) are sometimes given as the names of his parents.
Sources disagree on whether Powell was born in Wales, United Kingdom or in Connecticut.
Some sources say that Powell's parents were involved with the Reverend John Davenport, who led a group of Puritans to settle in the New Haven Colony in present-day New Haven, Connecticut.
Several sources say Powell's father was involved with the sack and rum trade.
Founded by a group of Separatists and Anglicans, who together later came to be known as the Pilgrims, Plymouth Colony (in Massachusetts) was founded in 1620 by those who sailed aboard the Mayflower.
The colony was one of the earliest successful colonies to be founded by the English in North America, and the first sizeable permanent English settlement in what is now the New England region.
Soon other colonies were established in New England.
Quakerism was founded by George Fox (1624–1691) in England in the late 1640s.
A Puritan minister named John Davenport led his flock from exile in the Netherlands back to England and finally to America in the spring of 1637.
The group arrived in Boston on the ship Hector on June 26, but decided to strike out on their own, based on their impression that the Massachusetts Bay Colony was lax in its religious observances.
In April 1638, the main party of five hundred Puritans left Massachusetts under the leadership of Davenport and the London merchant Theophilus Eaton, and sailed into their new haven.
The Quinnipiac Native Americans, who were under attack by neighboring Pequots, had sold their land to Eaton and the settlers in return for protection.
These settlers established the New Haven Colony.
Thomas Powell (1641–1721/22) was a landowner in the middle section of Long Island in the Province of New York during the colonial period of American history.
He secured the land transaction known as the Bethpage Purchase with local native tribes on Long Island.
Powell was born in August or October 1641.
The English Civil War took place from 1642 to 1651, and England was without a monarch until 1660.
The first Quaker missionaries arrived on America in Boston in 1656, and 1657 on Long Island.
Peter Stuyvesant, the Dutch Director-General of New Netherland, had also banned Quaker worship despite the 1657 Flushing Remonstrance.
Many Quakers settled further east in Oyster Bay, which was near the boundary between Dutch and British land.
Powell filled positions within the administration of Huntington, including town recorder in the year 1658 and is listed as doing so in the Huntington town history timeline., constable, surveyor, overseer, and trustee.
Court records from 1662 for the Town of Huntington, New York, indicate that thomas Powell indentured servant in the Jonas Halifax Wood home living with them nine years.
After almost nine years of service to Master Good Wood, and Good Higbe, Powell gave written testimony for the inventory books against the estate of Jonas Halifax Wood of Hempstead regarding an unpaid debt for rum and wine at Daniel Whiteheads store following Wood's death.
In 1662, the colony merged with the Connecticut Colony.
Quakers were officially persecuted in England under the Quaker Act (1662) and the Conventicle Act 1664.
Until 1664, Long Island was split, roughly at the present border between Nassau County and Suffolk County, between the Dutch in the west and Connecticut claiming the east.
The Dutch did grant an English settlement in Hempstead (now in Nassau), but drove settlers from Oyster Bay as part of a boundary dispute.
In 1664, all of Long Island became part of the Province of New York within the Shire of York.
Present-day Suffolk County was the East Riding of Yorkshire, while present-day Queens and Nassau were just part of the larger North Riding.
Records from 1666 show Powell acting as attorney for Matthews in the sale of lands in Oyster Bay.
Sources list Powell's first wife's name as unknown.
After completing his service, Powell lived for several years in Huntington.
In 1682, Powell declined to serve again as constable, because the job required the officer to swear to levy and collect rates for the Church of England, and he had, by then, become a Quaker.
In 1683, Yorkshire was dissolved and Suffolk County and Queens County were established.
In 1686, Governor Thomas Dongan of New York urged the Town of Huntington to complete the purchase from the local Native Americans of any lands not already purchased.
Powell, who had substantial holdings of land in Huntington, was chosen by the town to offer to buy more lands from the Native Americans.
This was relaxed after the Declaration of Indulgence (1687–1688) and stopped under the Act of Toleration 1689.
The Bethpage Purchase was a 1687 land transaction in which Powell bought more than 15 sqmi (about 10,000 acres) in central Long Island, New York for £140 (English pounds sterling) from local Native Americans in the United States tribes, including the Marsapeque, Matinecoc, and Sacatogue.
(Nassau County was not formed until 1899, when it split from Queens County.)
