Thomas Hooker was an English pioneer. He was born in 1586 at Makfield and died in 1647. In 1626 he became a minister at Chelmsford. He fled to Holland in 1630 on a charge of non-conformity and sailed for New England in 1633. Chosen pastor of Newtowne, Massachusetts, he led some people to Connecticut where he founded Hartford in June 1636.
