NOTES:
AF #16VX-PSK shows the parents of (5026) Nathaniel Turner as Humphrey Turner and Lydia Gamer. This Humphrey, however, was born 22 Oct 1593 in Kent -- which would have made him two years old when his son was born in Derby.
"Turner, Nathaniel. He went with Capt.Endicott to reduce the Indians on Block Island, for the murder of Capt. Oldham, and from thence to the Pequots, to demand the murderers of Capts. Stone and Norton, 1636."

"The "overseas trade" of the colony involved relations with Long Island, New Amssterdam, Delaware, Virginia, Barbados, Rhode Island, Massachusetts Bay and Newfoundland. New Haven shipped out provisions, cattle, and horses, receiving in return manufactured goods, hardware, canvas, rum, sugar, cotton, salt, tobacco, and wines. English vessels entered the harbor with cargoes, but the only effort of the colony to ship directly to the mother country ended in a dramatic tragedy --- the loss of Lamberton's ship.
