HOLBROOK.
JOHN, emigrated from Derby, England, and settled at Oyster Bay, Long Island.
HORSEY.
2. DEA. ABEL, son of John Holbrook, was the first male child born at Oyster Bay, L. I. in 1653, and came to Milford, Conn., where he married Anne Meriam (?). Her name on the Derby records is written Hannah. He settled on the farm now known as the " Swift farm " about 1676, having received a grant of land a little before that date. He kept an ordinary (tavern) several years, and was a prominent citizen in the town. His wife Hannah died Oct. 20, 1740, aged 72, and he died May 30, 1747, in his 94th year. Children:

Hence there is an error on page 195 of this book, in which it is stated that he withdrew from the Episcopal church at the beginning of the Revolution. It must have been his son, who was the Capt.

HULL.(Written as Hulls 100 yrs. ago.)
RICHARD, came from Derbyshire, Eng., and was made free-man at Dorchester, Mass., in April, 1634, and removed to New Haven, Conn., in 1639. His son John was baptized in 1640. This John the Derby family claim to be their ancestor. Judge Savage thinks John, the son of Andrew, was the settler in Derby. Richard and Andrew were brothers, so said, and each of them had a son John, apparently, one of these settled in Stratford and Derby, the other settled in Killingworth, and was the surgeon In King Philip's war, instead of John of Derby.
