FOURTEENTH GENERATION
10024. William Cornwall/ Cornwell
10027. unknown prob. not Lydia Backus (see below)
Most websites list (10026) John's wife as Lydia Backus (b. 31 Dec. 1637 Sheffield, Yorksh), and children, variously, as:
She was clearly not the mother of (5013) Mary, who was b. ~1618.

"PECK, ...(10029i) RICHARD, came in the Defence from London, 1635, emb. Saturday, 11 July; and no doubt sailing next week, aged 33, with (10029i[1]) Margery, perhaps his w. aged 40, and (10029i_a) Israel, 7 with (10029_b) Elizabeth 4, both likely eno. to be his ch. See 3 Mass. hist. Coll. VIII. 269. How long, after arr. at boston, he contin. there, or whither he rem. is uncert. My conject. is that he short, aft. liv. at Rehoboth. In the Geneal. Reg. XIV. 320 this name is by Mr. Drake writ. Perk; and his eyes engag. on the same ancient MS. as mine, might seem more trustworthy, as younger. For Israel, also, he read Isabel. But since my reading was not chang. by the skilful keeper of her Majest's rec. in his exquisite collat. 3 Mass. Hist. Coll. X. 130, I may trust the punctilious student to follow wh. seems to him more correct. Ano. and younger stud. in this branch of hist. starts the conject. Geneal. Reg. XV. 60, that the name spell. Perk in the former vol. may be Park of Newton."

"I have found a reference that Centennial History of Missouri - St. Louis - C.J. Clark Pub. Co., 1921 lists the parents as Edward and Grace Green. They also list them as parents for William (1601-1694). I have not been able to obtain a copy of the book to confirm..."

A writ of Habeas Corpus was issued for Edward Peck, Sergeant at Law 8 June 1675. He was apparently the same as Sir Edward Peck, knight, and Sergeant-at-Law, married to Gartrude Greene and father of William Peck. This William died 27 June 1694 leaving two sons, the eldest of which was named William.
SRC: cf. 'House of Lords Journal Volume 12: 8 June 1675', Journal of the House of Lords: volume 12: 1666-1675, pp. 726-28. c/o http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=12926.
"William Peck, eldest son of Sir Edward Peck, knight, and Sergeant-at-law, grandson of ___ Moundeford, daughter of one of the younger sonns of Sir Edmund Moundeford, hauing married Gartrude, daughter of Sir Edward Greene,† died 27th of June, 1694, at his house Sanford Hall in Essex. He left two sonns and two daughters, all younge. His Eldest sonn, William, was readie for the vniuersitie, and just goeing thither when his father died. ...
"†Sir Edward Green was created a Baronet in 1660. He had large estates in Essex, which he wasted by gaming."

The above Sir Edward Peck (~1625-1675) of Methwold, Norfolk and Sampford Hall, Essex, husband of Grace Green (~1629-1649) and father of William Peck (1650-1694) is in the Ancestral File as AFN:963T-7N. He could NOT have been the father of Deacon Paul Peck of Hartford, nor of the New Haven, CT Pecks.
"A good many of us have been trying to nail down Deacon William Peck's ancestry. There's a lot of erroneous information on the net indicating that he was the son of Stephen Peck, b. 1562 (wrong) or Stephen's son William, b. 1588 (also wrong) or a William Peck, b. 1575 in Knossington (maybe). Still checking. However, this is the first I've seen that he's the son of an Edward Peck. What is your source for that information? I was unaware of any relationship between William and Paul Peck at all."

"Burke's American Families with English Ancestry gives Deacon William's father as William Peck of Knoston, Colchester, Essex, England."

"There is a book in print by Robert W.Peck, THD, called One Thousand Years of Peck History. He names William Peck and Elizabeth Hunter as Paul's parents. William is son of John and Margery Passon Peck. Wm was born 1601, Richard, in 1603, Elizabeth in 1605. Paul. 1608. ugh in 1609. Joseph in 1610, Henry, 1615..."

"Henry Peck was born in England about 1610 and died in New Haven, Connecticut in 1651. He married, probably in England, at an unknown time, Joan (-----). He was an early, but not original, subscriber to the New Haven Fundamental agreement, taking the oath of fidelity on 1 July 1644 at the same time as Joseph Peck, and a few years later than (Deacon) William Peck, an original subscriber, who was a witness to his will. It is thought that Henry and Joseph were probably brothers, and closely related to William (Jacobus, Henry Peck Family). Henry is mentioned several times in the Records of the Colony of New Haven as edited by Charles Hoadley, among them:"

From the above, we can see that many have attempted to connect Paul of Hartford with the New Haven Pecks. While a good case can be made for connecting Joseph, Henry and William (1601-) of New Haven, nobody has shown any close relationship between these and Paul. There are several Peck lines, some of which are not at all related to the above. The following five lines appear to be related by yDNA, all of them being in Haplogroup I and having similar haplotypes:

The DNA pattern shows some relationship between Deacon Paul Peck of Hartford (whose descendant is PX-1) and the New Haven Pecks (the other samples). Just what that relationship is -- either brother or far distant cousin -- remains to be seen.

NOTE: (10031iii) Thomas Hale of Roxbury and Charlestown, MA and Hartford, CT, is often confused with a man of the same name ([20061v_d] Thomas), prob. b. 1610 (in Hertfordshire, as the first Thomas), but living in Newbury, Haverhill and Salem, MA I have followed Savage's cues here in identifying them.

"The parish register at Watton shows the burial of (10030) Thomas Hale. He left a will bearing date of the 11th of October 1630 and proved 9 December 1630 in the court of the Archdeaconry of Hitchin, Herts, by (10031iii) Thomas Hale, the executor named in it. The original is still on file among the records of that court, is signed by the testator in a decent and legible though evidently not a business hand, is sealed with the impression of a unicorn's head, and is witnessed by (20063i) ffrancis Kirby and by (10031v) John Hale, the latter signing by mark.
"In this will the testator describes himself as "Thomas Hale of ye parish at Watton-at-Stone in the county of Hartford," without addition. After the usual pious profession of faith, thanks to God, commital of his soul to it's creator and his body to burial, he sisposes of his personal property and his real estate consisting of eleven, and perhaps twelve, distinct parcels, probably all of small extent. Five of these parcels, designated as the house close, the backside close, the hill close, and two others, the extent and tenure of none of which are given, he devises to his wife (10031) Joane and son Thomas till Michaelmas next, conditioned that they "shall bestow necessary reparation upon said house" and shall pay to Mrs. Cranfield the half years rent to become due at Michaelmas on the land testator holds from her. For them years thereafter he devises these parcels to his wife, his son Thomas to occupy the same as her tenant, paying her the yearly rent of four pounds in half-yearly payments.
"Another parcel designated as the "medow and ry close conteyninge seuen acres more of lesse," he devises to his daughter (10031iv) Mary hle for three years, "with all the benefit of graseinge and moweing & Ioppinge both in the said medow & hedges so that she do not spoike the said hedges that the loppinge be only in the first year;" then for three years in like manner to his daughter (10031vi) Dorothy Hale; then for one year to his daughter (10031i) Dionis Beane, "or to her son Henry Beane which shall then be liveinge." He provides also that Thomas shall occupy this close as the tenant of his sisters respectively during said respective terms, paying to them respectively five pounds per year rent in half-yearly payments.
"The remaining parcels of real estate, designated as two half-acres of "free land (freehold) lieinge in Headen abuttinge upon the highway leadinge from Watton to Walkerne," an acre and a half in "monsal's hearn," a "parcell of medow pasture close & orchard in Cooper's crofte, abouteinge upon the river on the east & highway on the west," and one piece in Stoneyfield he devises absolutely to his son Thomas, to whom he also gives all his goods and chattels "(excepting a bed with beddinge convenient linnen and other fittinge furniture for one chamber which I hereby reserue & give to Jone my wife)." He directs payment of all his debts and the "dischargeinge of buriall and such necessary disbursements" by his son Thomas from the avails of the lands and goods, and appoints him sole executor, "nothing doubtinge of his carefull performance of this my will," and requests "my brother Francis Kirby to be an overseer."
"It appears that Thomas Hale Sr., was of yeoman class but owner of a small amount of property. His widow remarried but nothing more is known of her after her marriage."
