“MATTHIAS ST. JOHN, came from Eng.; freeman of Dorchester, 1634; removed to Windsor, about 1638; was named there in a list of freemen, 19 Oct. 1669; made his will the same day, and died before 1669-70, when the inventory of his estate was taken. He mentioned his wife without giving her name; gave ‘unto my dearly beloved brother and sister Hoit, Twenty shillings apiece as a token of my love.’ A year later, 3 Jan. 1670-71, the town of Norwalk voted that his son, ‘Matthias Sension is to take up his proportion of six acres to the hundred upon Elie’s nek,next to his unkell Hoite.’ Probably this was Walter Hoyt.”147
