Summary:
In part one (of two parts) we learn about one of Carol Kimball's ancestors, Jonathan Brewster, eldest son of Pilgrim Elder William Brewster. Jonathan was born at Scrooby, England Aug. 12, 1593 and married Lucretia Oldham. They had eight children. He became a leading citizen of Pequot Plantation and a canny trader with a place of business on what would come to be called "Brewster's Neck" which would become known for the location of the Norwich Hospital.
