 | | Henry Wolcott of Goldon Manor, second son of Sir John, was baptized at Lydiard, St. Lawrence, the adjoining parish, 6th December, 1578, and married, 10th January, 1606, Elizabeth Saunders, daughter of Thomas Saunders of Lydiard, St. Lawrence, born 1589. |
 | | Impelled by religious motives, Henry Wolcott and his entire family, with the exception of his oldest son, came to New England and were among those that made the memorable march from Massachusetts Bay to the Connecticut River in 1635/6, and were among the founders of Windsor. |
 | | Here he assumed a position of influence and was a member of the Lower House in the First General Assembly held in Connecticut, 1637, and an Assistant to the Governor, 1643-1655, and he became the progenitor of one of the most distinguished families in America. |
