Anne Hutchinson (born Anne Marbury) was an English colonist. She was born in 1600 and died in 1643. She went to America from England in 1634. She was expelled from the Massachusetts colony for preaching Antinomian doctrines and accusing the authorities of being under a 'covenant of works'. She had won a large following and founded Portsmouth, Rhode Island on the island of Aquidneck, which she purchased from the Indians. She was afterward murdered by the Indians near Manhattan, where she settled. Research Anne Hutchinson
