John Winthrop was born in Suffolk, England in 1587. He was his parents' only son. His father, Adam Winthrop, was the lord of Groton Manor, a small estate in the English countryside. John grew up on his father's estate, amid gently rolling hills, fields of wheat and rye, and shallow ponds. In his childhood he as educated by a private tutor, and at the age of fourteen his father enrolled him in Trinity College in Cambridge. He studied there for two years and then returned to Groton to begin practical training in running his father's estate. Soon Adam Winthrop saw his son's hidden marriage problem and introduced him to Mary Worth, the daughter of a distinguished Essex nobleman. Three weeks later John was married at the age of seventeen. Ten months later, just after his eighteenth birthday, he became a father. John and his wife Mary worked hard and had six children in ten years. Then Mary suddenly died. After six months John remarried, but on his first wedding anniversary his second wife died. One year later John married his third wife, Margaret. By all accounts, Margaret was one of the most appealing women in all of American history. She was beautiful and gracious. She was also a woman of faith. John Winthrop treasured her as his greatest possession. When he traveled away from home, he never failed to send her love letters. Here is one of his letters:

His parents were wealthy, and in 1622, at age 16, he was sent to Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland, for a general education. Two years later, he returned to England and studied law until 1627, when he went to sea, first to France as a secretary to a captain on a military expedition, then to Turkey, Italy, and Holland as a regular traveler. When he came home to England in August of 1629, he found that his father was preparing to leave for America as the governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. His father left in the spring of 1630, and John stayed behind to care for his stepmother, Martha (Tyndal) Winthrop, and the Winthrop children, as well as his father's businesses. On February 8, 1630/1, he married his cousin Martha Fones, daughter of Thomas and Anne (Winthrop) Fones of London. Some of their correspondence after marriage was in code, and not deciphered until almost three centuries later.

John Winthrop by Krishan, age 12 All leaders in history were smart and did different things but John Winthrop stood out from the rest because he started some of the first colonies in America. He was a Puritan leader, a very religious governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony. He was the most popular of the Puritans. Winthrop had a very long life. When he came to America, he built his home where today stands the Isaac Royall House in Medford, Massachusetts. The environment of Medford was mild. In the summer it would be warm and in the winter it would be cold. There was one waterway for shipping and trading. It was called the Mystic River. Today you can see Winthrop's house on George Street where the Royall House is located and parts of the old roof lines from Winthrop's home are still visible. Back to Page 4 Back to Page 14

In 1630, however, about 700 of these Puritans, led by John Winthrop, followed Bradford's example and traveled to America, where they set up the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Puritan scholars have suggested various reasons for this exodus. Perry Miller has argued that Winthrop and other Puritans saw their project as an "errand into the wilderness" and believed they could reform Christianity by setting up a model of God's kingdom in America. Other scholars, notably Andrew Delbanco, have suggested that many of the Puritans who migrated in the 1630s had other goals; some, for example, apparently were fleeing the corrupt morality of England. In The Model of Christian Charity , Winthrop uses tenets of Christianity and his own sense of reason to write a political sermon designed to prepare the Puritans for their difficult project in America. This public work not only explains the Puritans' belief in a

John Winthrop: First Governor of Massachusetts While en route to the New World on board the Arabella, John Winthrop wrote a sermon entitled "A Model of Christian Charity," in which he outlined the purposes of God for New England. Winthrop had a deep understanding of God's divine purposes for the colony. "We shall be a city set on a hill," he said of Boston - where the church was the center of life during those early years of the city's history. He described a harmonious Christian community whose laws and government would logically proceed from a godly and purposeful arrangement. John Winthrop also believed that this new form of government would help bring about a "Golden Age" and that one day all the nations of the world would copy this form of government: "We shall find that the God of Israel shall be among us, when ten of us shall be able to resist a thousand of our enemies; when He shall make us a praise and glory that men shall say of succeeding plantations, 'the Lord make it like that of New England.'" But Winthrop also gave a warning: "The eyes of all people are upon us, so that if we deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause us to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a byword through the world."

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History WINTHROP, JOHN , founding governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony. Winthrop's contribution to the Puritan adventure in British North America would appear self-evident. He was governor of the Bay Colony almost continuously from 1630 to 1649, and in the interim years he also exerted a powerful influence over colonial affairs as a member of the Council of Assistants. Dedicating his personal funds as well as his administrative talents, Winthrop conscientiously advanced the Puritan standard of "nursing father" to the emergent wilderness theocracy. He symbolizes the ambiguity of the Puritan mystique at the root of American national identity. Consider the importance ascribed to Winthrop's famous sermon, "The Modell of Christian Charity," which he wrote and possibly delivered on board the flagship Arbella when the Puritans were en route to America. More than the formulaic admonition that was customarily preached to shipmates at the launching of transatlantic voyages, it was the moral code for a godly society that Winthrop hoped would serve as a model for a reformed England. In later generations his prediction that "wee shall bee as a Citty upon a hill, the eyes of all people ... upon us" evoked a self-conscious ideal against which the themes of each day were measured. Still later, the image would become a republican symbol of American exceptionalism and world mission, and ultimately an ideological touchstone for imperial diplomacy in the twentieth century.

It rarely makes sense to think that when a century changes or one designated "era" gives way to another, all values change utterly and for everyone. The portrait below is also by Copley this time it's of a Boston minister, a leader in the still-flourishing Calvinist faith of the city. His garb and general demeanor are largely the same as Mather and Sewall would have favored two or three generations before. The name of this preacher? John Winthrop. Same family and same vocation. The telescope, though, and the impression that this Winthrop looks out at the world with scientific curiosity, suggest a reconciliation of his Calvinism with the science and logic of this new age.
