I conceive there lies a clear rule in Titus, that the elder women should instruct the younger and then I must have a time wherein I must do it. - Anne Hutchinson

About Anne Hutchinson

Anne Hutchinson, born Anne Marbury (July 1591 – 20 August 1643), was a Puritan spiritual adviser, mother of 15, and an important participant in the Antinomian Controversy that shook the infant Massachusetts Bay Colony from 1636 to 1638. Her strong religious convictions were at odds with the established Puritan clergy in the Boston area, and her popularity and charisma helped create a theological schism that threatened to destroy the Puritans' religious experiment in New England. She was eventually tried and convicted, then banished from the colony with many of her supporters.
