"JOHN LATHROP, bapt. 20 Dec, 1584, Etton, co. York, Eng. was a minister of the established Church of England at Egerton, Kent. Here he labored faithfully as long as he could approve the ritual on government of the Church. But, when he could no longer do this we find him conscientiously renouncing his orders. In 1623, he left the Church and joined with the Independents, becoming pastor of the First Independent Church of London for at least 8 years . They were forced to meet secretly. Agents of the bishop "tracked Mr. Lathropp and his followers to their retreat. Their meeting was suddenly invaded and 42 of their number were seized and sent in fetters to the Old Clink prison in Newgate, In the spring of 1634 all but Mr. Lathropp were released on bail, but he was deemed too dangerous to be set at liberty.
"During these months a fatal sickness was preying upon his wife, and bringing her fast toward her end. Of this sickness she died. He procured liberty of the bishop to visit his wife before her death, and commended her to God by prayer, who soon gave up the ghost. At his return to prison, his poor children being many, repaired to the bishop at Lambeth, and made known unto him their miserable condition, by reason of their good father's being continued in close durance, who commiserated their condition so far as to grant him liberty, who soon after came over into New England, " He came in the "Griffin" to Boston, 18 Sept. 1634, He settled 1st at Scituate, Mass. and removed to Barnstable 11 Oct, 1639, where he was pastor of churches.
