    "Hurlbut, Thomas. Colonial grant, Oct. 1671, for service in Pequot War, 1637. Clerk, Wethersfield Trainband, June 1649. Born [in England] prob. not much before 1615; d. at Wethersfield, Sept. 1689. The surname is often spelled Hollabut, Holabird, and various other ways. The Hurlbut Gen. gives an impossible account of the succession of three Thomas Hurlbuts, where there were but two. He came prob. with Lion Gardiner to Saybrook 1635, and his part in the Pequot War is narrated by Capt. Gardiner in his Relation. He settled in Wethersfield, where he was blacksmith. In 1662, the town granted him land on which to set a shop and little house. In 1670 he was listed in the town of Wethersfield with seven persons in his household, whom we take to be himself, his wife, and five sons; the only other Hurlbut listed separately was (his son) Samuel, with three persons. [The Wyllys Papers.] Died Sept. 1689; Inv. £58, includes blacksmith tools; taken 6 Mar. 1689/90 by Robert Welles and Samuel Butler. Widow Elizabeth; ages of children: Timothy 9, Nathaniel 7, Ebenezer 4. Adm'n granted to Stephen Hurlbut; Est. insolvent. The names of the six elder sons were not stated in the probate records, as they were not minors; and they had received their portions apparently by deeds of gift from their father before his last marriage."
