Lockwood, May, 1632, to confer with the Court about raising of a public stock; was Deputy or Representative of the New Town, 1634-1637; one of the first Board of Townsmen, 1635; lieutenant of the trainband, 1637, and a member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company, at its organization in 1639; he probably removed to Hartford in 1639, where he was Selectman and Deputy, and died in 1640. John Kirman removed to Lynn, 1632, and was a Deputy, 1635. Simon Sackett died here before 3d November, 1635, when administration was granted to his widow Isabell Sackett. But this Book of Records was not commenced until 1632, several months after Dudley and Bradstreet performed their promise to build houses at the New Town. Whether more than the before named eight persons, and indeed whether all these resided in the New Town before the end of 1631, I have not found any certain proof.

But becoming dissatisfied, he wrote a letter to a friend in England, for which he was called to account by the magistrates 3 Nov. 1635. His answer, which is recorded in Col. Rec., i. 358-360, is worth preserving and is inserted elsewhere. His offence was pardoned, and he remained about ten years longer, when he sailed for England, with Capt. Thomas Coytmore, and together wimpany. His name appears on the Records before Aug. 1633, and for the last time 20 Aug. 1635.

He res. on the northerly side of Winthrop Street, between Holyoke and Dunster streets. Administration on his estate was granted by the General Court 3 Nov. 1635 to his wid. Isabell Sackett. She is named on the Records 8 Feb. 1635-6, after which the name disappears. The estate passed into the hands of Robert Stedman before 1642. Simon Sackett of Springfield, about 1654, and John Sackett of Northampton, in 1660, were sons of Simon and Isabel of Cambridge. Saltonstall, Sir Richard, was one of the Assistants, when the Government of the Colony was removed to Massachusetts in 1630. He had lands in Wat., and res. there a short time. Although he returned to England in 1631, he seems still to have been regarded as an Assistant, and provision was made for him when Camb. was selected as a suitable place for a fortified tow
