Revs. Wareham and Meverick and their group stayed in Dorchester less´uª0 ´uª0 than five´uª0 ´uª0 years, as a number of their menfolk had discovered more fertile land below´uª0 ´uª0 the first´uª0 ´uª0 falls of the Connecticut River, at the junction of the Farmington River just´uª0 ´uª0 above´uª0 ´uª0 Hartford. Part of the colony went by boat and the remainder travelled across the´uª0 ´uª0 one´uª0 ´uª0 hundred miles of virgin forest, to establish the town of Windsor. Windsor was´uª0 ´uª0 unofficially known as Thrallville in the early years.

´uª0 William Thrall is mentioned many times in the early records. His lot shows´uª0 ´uª0 up in the´uª0 ´uª0 first plot of Windsor, between the lots of Nicholas Palmer and´uª0 ´uª0 Thomas Bascomb, and ran´uª0 ´uª0 from the road to the Farmington River. In 1646,´uª0 ´uª0 William sold this lot to Nicholas Palmer´uª0 ´uª0 and moved to Simon Hoyte's´uª0 ´uª0 place, north of the village. Robert Wilson bought a half´uª0 ´uª0 interest with´uª0 ´uª0 William in the Hoyte's 80 acres, but sold his half to Thrall in 1654. This 80´uª0 ´uª0 acres has been part of the holdings of the Thrall family ever since.
´uª0 William Thrall was born in 1605 in Sandridge, Hertfordshire, England, and´uª0 ´uª0 died on 3´uª0 ´uª0 August 1679 in Windsor, Connecticut, America. William Thrall´uª0 ´uª0 made his will in ´uª0 1678.
´uª0 Goode Thrall
´uª0 We know very little about the wife of William Thrall. She is referred to in´uª0 ´uª0 the old´uª0 ´uª0 Windsor records as Goode Thrall, but 'Goode' was an expression´uª0 ´uª0 applied to women with´uª0 ´uª0 families and it is simply an abbreviation of´uª0 ´uª0 'Goodwife'. Whether she came over to New´uª0 ´uª0 England on the "Mary and´uª0 ´uª0 John" with her husband or they met in Dorchester, has´uª0 ´uª0 never been´uª0 ´uª0 established The record of her death simply statesÖ
´uª0 Goode Thrall, wife of William, died 30 July 1676

The first we know of William Thrall is that he is listed with the following´uª0 ´uª0 men who were among the thirty men who went from Windsor to join in the´uª0 ´uª0 fight´uª0 ´uª0 against the Pequod Indians in May 1637. Capt. John Mason, Sgt.´uª0 ´uª0 Benedict Alvord,´uª0 ´uª0 Thomas Barber, Thomas Buckland, George Chappel,´uª0 ´uª0 John Dyer, James Eggleston,´uª0 ´uª0 Nathaniel Gillet, Thomas Gridley, Thomas´uª0 ´uª0 Styles, Sgt. Thomas Stares, Richard Osborn,´uª0 ´uª0 Thomas Parsons, William´uª0 ´uª0 Thrall. The Indian village in this case was so completely´uª0 ´uª0 destroyed that for´uª0 ´uª0 many years, the settlers had no further trouble with the Indians.´uª0 ´uª0 Some years´uª0 ´uª0 later, the participants were given land grants. To quote from Dr. Styles´uª0 ´uª0 records with regard to the first Indian war in New England,
´uª0 The danger was imminent, and so complete the victory that it caused´uª0 ´uª0 universal´uª0 ´uª0 rejoicing throughout New England, and a grant of land was given´uª0 ´uª0 each soldier and´uª0 ´uª0 officer, and to this day the memory of an ancestor who´uª0 ´uª0 was in the Pequod fight, is an´uª0 ´uª0 honorable heirloom in every Connecticut´uª0 ´uª0 family´/uª
