Thomas Hutchinson (1711-1780) was the Royal governor of Massachusetts from 1758 to 1774. He was a polarizing figure, loyal to both Massachusetts and to Great Britain on the eve of the Revolution. Here is his two-volume, “History of the Colony of Massachusets-Bay, from the First Settlement Thereof in 1928, Until Its Incorporation with the Colony of Plimouth, Province of Main, &c. By the Charter of King William and Queen Mary, in 1691.” The third volume is “A Collection of Corginal Papers Relative to the History of the Colony of Massachusets-Bay”. Some of my ancestors settled in Massachusetts in the 1630s. One ancestor was on the Mayflower.
