About John Winthrop
John Winthrop (12 January 1587/1588–26 March 1649) was a Puritan lawyer who led the first large wave of immigrants from England into the New World on the ship Arbella. He was a major contributor to the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1629, envisioning it as a "city upon a hill". He was the third governor of the colony. Winthrop was extremely religious, and a fervent subscriber to the Puritan belief that the Anglican Church had to be cleansed of Catholic ritual. He played a role in the banishment of Anne Hutchinson from the Massachusetts Bay Colony as the primary prosecutor and judge.
