Rev. John Lathrop, Puritan Immigrant
Born in 1584, John Lothrop has been called “one of the four most
prominent colonial ministers in America.” He received his BA
from Queen's College, Cambridge in 1605; was ordained a deacon
in 1607; received his MA in 1609; married Hannah House in 1610.
Rev. John Lathrop ministered in England at the time of the
publishing of the King James Bible. Puritans were calling the
Church of England back to New Testament principles. The
Archbishop, William Laud, sought to purge the growing ranks of
Puritans within the Church of England. Lathrop initially carried
out these instructions but eventually he renounced his
ordination in 1623 and became a full-time Puritan minister. He
moved to London in 1624 and to pastor the first Independent
Church in London. In 1632 The Archbishop caused ministers of
non-sanctioned churches arrested and the congregations to be
dispersed. While imprisoned, Hannah Lathrop died leaving seven
children ranging in age from 8 to 18 years. Lathrop was told
that he would be pardoned if he would agree to permanently leave
England. On 18 Sept. 1634, he sailed to New England on the
Griffin about 1634 with members from his church.
He arrived in Boston and quickly moved on to Scituate in 1635
and became pastor of the First Church in Scituate where he
remained till 1639. His opinions concerning letting non-Puritans
attend services led to the church voting him out of the office.
With a group of followers he moved and became founding father of
the town of Barnstable, Massachusetts. He continued his ministry
there until shortly before his death on November 8, 1653. His
house is now part of the town library.
