!For a complete history on James see Page 5 through 10. Includesa copy of
his will and life history. His name appears on a monument erected in 1835 of
the first settlers of Hartford.
Came over on the ship Lion in 1632. Like most of the passengers of thistrip, they moved shortly after arrival to Newtown (Cambridge). JamesOlmstead's lot was on the north side of Harvard Street and became thesecond piece of propety purchased by Harvard College. James was made aFreeman November 6, 1632, and was chosen as the first constable November3, 1634. On February 3, 1634 at a town meeting, seven men were chosen toconduct the business of the town, and James Olmstead as well as JohnTalcott, William Wadsworth and John White were included. In 1634, thesettlers found they were in need of more land and twelve men, includingJames Olmstead, were dispatched to look at lands on the ConnecticutRiver. The group returned with a good report of the new site they hadfound and on October 15, 1635, sixty men, women and children went by landwith their cattle, horses and swine and arrived at the new site two weekslater. Their furniture and provision had been sent by ship on theConnecticut River and because of the onset of a harsh winter, their shipwas frozen at the mouth of the River. Although a few in the group choseto stay at the new site, many of the sixty people returned to Newtown, ingreat hardship. In May of 1636, when the weather changed, one hundredpeople including their minister Reverend Thomas Hooker, set out again toestablish the settlement now known as Hartford. They arrived after a twoweek trip accross the land. James Olmstead had a home lot of about twoacres adjoining Reverend Hooker's lot, and many other plots of landincluding a seventy acre tract in 1639. He was one of the first membersof the First Church of Hartford. James was probably one of the first tobe buried in the Ancient Burying Ground which is back of the CenterChurch and where the mounument to the original proprietors of Hartfordnow stands.

In the Hartford land inventory of February 1639[/40] James Olmsteadheld thirteen parcels of land in Hartford: two acres with dwelling house,outhouses, yards and gardens; one acre, three roods and thirty perches inthe Little Meadow; five acres and twenty-four perches of meadow and swampin the North Meadow; thirty-two acres, three roods and nine perches ofmeadow and swamp in the North Meadow; four acres and thirty-two percheson the east side of the Great River; twenty-six acres in the OldOxpasture; two acres, three roods and eight perches in the Venturers'Field; sixteen acres, three roods and eight perches in the Cowpasture;eight acres and two roods of meadow and swamp in the South Meadow; twoacres, three roods and thirty-one perches of meadow and swamp atHockanum; four acres, two roods and thirty-three perches in the Neck ofLand; seven acres, three roods and sixteen perches in the Neck of Land;twenty acres, two roods and twenty-four perches in the Cowpasture [ HaBOP314-17].

In alater agreement between the executors and the two sons of James, kinsmenRichard and John Olmstead were given Ð5 apiece, and the Hartford churchÐ20 [ Manwaring 1:28-29; CCCR 1:446-47].
The inventory, taken 28 September 1640, totalled Ð397 19s. 2d., andincluded "2 acres of English corn of the ground" and "13 acres of groundbroke up," but this certainly did not include all his land [ CCCR1:448-49].

Notes: ASSOCIATIONS: Three children of Richard Olmstead, nephew of James,came to New England: Richard (bp. 1612), John (bp. 1617) and Rebecca (b.say 1620) [Olmsted Gen 5]. It has been claimed that they came to NewEngland in 1632 with their greatuncle, but there is no evidence to provethis, and they may well have come later.
Notes: BIBLIOGRAPHIC NOTE: The standard genealogy for the Olmstead familyis Henry King Olmsted and Geo. K. Ware, Genealogy of the Olmsted Familyin America Embracing the Descendants of James and Richard Olmsted andCovering a Period of Nearly Three Centuries, 1632-1912 (New York 1912)[cited above as Olmsted Gen]. This presents the records obtained as aresult of research in England (supervised by Frederick Law Olmsted!),including speculations on earlier generations [x-xv]. The parish registerentries above are taken from this work, augmented by examination of atranscript of the register at the Essex Record Office in Chelmsford. | James OLMSTED

Page xiv. On Page xi is lists a James and Jane Olmsted with all of their
children. In the death records for Great Leighs church is shows a James
Olmsteddying 2 Dec 1595. According to the births of their children, the
only James that they had was the one who came over to Boston, so this could
not be the same one who died in 1595.
I'm assuming this death record is for the father James, husband of Jane.
